It was a great experience staying at Johns place. Everything you need is near by, we did not take a cab the whole time we stayed there other than to the airport. The house is on a quiet street and it was just as we thought it would be. John met us there and had a whole book of suggestions for us, he had a bottle of champagne chilling in the fridge for us as well. I would recommend staying here if you are looking for a place in San Francisco!
