Leo was very nice and helpful via text but I think it's important to be upfront about the fact that the place is connected to the upstairs by a door the hosts have access to (separate from your separate entrance). The host also needs to address the noise issue which awoke me every night at 3 am. Also: dust was an issue. Finally, there was occasionally a strange odor that would permeate the downstairs--not sure where that was coming from. The location is good, the place is fine overall and not a bad value, but I did feel a bit misled by the listing and other overwhelmingly positive reviews. I have stayed in a lot of airbnbs and also hotels in SF of comparable value so I don't think I'm being unfair or unrealistic.
