The en suite was a relaxing, refined recharge space away from my work downtown. The space itself is very high quality, especially the floors, bed, and pillows. Lots of natural light but dark at night too.
Tommy and his partner’s hospitality was above and beyond, from leaving me some delicious personalized snacks to offering me gloves and hat for the unseasonably cold weather. At the same time they were very respectful of my privacy. A great balance.
This is a fantastic Airbnb if it matches what you’re looking for. If you’re expecting a home type Airbnb, the lack of kitchen and laundry might put you off, and Noe Valley is not in the center of activity (although Castro is a quick but hilly walk away). Tommy’s place is a hotel experience plus above and beyond hospitality, in a quiet, upscale, relaxing neighborhood. If that’s what you’re looking for it’s an excellent choice.
