Me and my husband stayed a week in San Francisco in this cute modern space. I really enjoyed having a kitchen (included pots/pans, cooking and eating utensils) to store refrigerated foods as well as the option to use a stovetop, microwave, and toaster. Vera is easy to talk to and was a great host to correspond with. Our tv had an issue one night, so I texted Vera and she responded quickly as well as had the tv looked at and fixed in the same day! The room has the option for natural lighting to shine through four big windows or to block sunlight with curtains. Lots of storage spaces (including a closet) for clothing (hangers included). The bed, comforter, and pillows were amazingly comfortable! At night we kept the sliding window/door open for cooler temps to sleep to (we like the temp cooler at night).
The Muni is only a block or so away (bus 22). The area feels safe and had an awesome city view! Safe enough to walk at night. Also, if you rent a bike like we did, you can store the bikes safely in the long hallway entry (it is locked up). Lots of good eating options within 10-15 min walking. Hazels Kitchen and Front Coffee were delicious. Potrero hill is overall a safe, fun area. I recommend staying at this home and would definitely stay here again.
Some ideas as a traveler:
Rent a bike for the time you are visiting (if you are feeling adventurous); saves money and quicker than walking. We biked 12 miles a day. Bus has bike racks.
Take the Bart system vs. a taxi or shuttle; its a great adventure and only $8.95 each way.
(Look up details online and look up details of a clipper card too).
Use Yelp for ideas and reviews on food and "what to do"
Use FlySmart app for airport navigation.
If staying more than 3 days, get a city pass; gives you Free Muni pass, big savings for many popular must sees (aquarium, exploratorium, California science).
Take the Ferry to Sausalito (its half price each way with a Clipper card).
The Wharf. Golden gate bridge! Pier 39 to see sea lions sunbathe and act like big babies lol.
Ripleys believe it or not.
In and out burger.
The Market.
