Kate’s place was perfect for our needs. I live in the neighborhood, and had out of town guests from Minnesota (friends of my parents’ in their mid-sixties) that I couldn’t accommodate at my place, so I booked Kate’s place for them. It worked out to be just perfect! So close to west portal downtown and west portal station, super nice and clean with lots of space - could easily fit a family of 4. Kate’s place was a great value.
West Portal is a quaint little neighborhood in SF with a tiny downtown and great access to public transit that will take you to many key parts of SF like Embarcadero, Union Square, Castro, etc, and is also not far from Golden Gate park. It’s only an 18-min muni ride to embarcadero! Our guests were able to sight-see independently, and also dined at a few of the restaurants at west portal downtown which they enjoyed. Overall it turned out to be a great 4-day stay for them, and I highly recommend it for you or your out of town guests! It’ll give you / them a flavor of actually living in this beautiful city of ours.
