I had a wonderful experience staying at Lulu and her family's home in the glamorous and beautiful st. Francis wood neighborhood of SF. Her house has an incredible view of the ocean and rolling hills of the west side of the city. Lulu is such a fun, colorful and gracious host. One of the most vivacious people I've ever met, and so welcoming to her guests. The simple room was as described and perfectly adequate. I found I could walk to the major light rail muni system major hub "west portal" in under 10 minutes from her house, but it is pretty steep and that was walking fast. A outstanding neighborhood to walk through, though.
