The description was accurate. The flat was pleasant and comfortable, and Melanie is a very friendly and helpful host. She was full of information and suggestions as to where to go and what to do, and had plenty of maps to show us. Our room was very comfortable, with plenty of space and everything we needed. Melanie was very welcoming and we felt relaxed and at home. While the flat is some way from the centre of San Francisco, there is a frequent bus service, and Golden Gate Park and the Presidio are not far away. We enjoyed our short stay.
