Wow! Location, location, location! My family of 3 (partner and 2-year-old) stayed here for a month in summer and loved every minute! This home is in a quiet/safe neighborhood a stone's throw from Golden Gate Park (GGP). The entrance to the park (Rose Garden) is less than .25 mile away and the California Academy of Sciences is only .5 mile away. We walked and biked in GGP multiple times a day, then dropped back by for snacks/lunch/naps/dinner. It was a dream. I highly recommend staying here if you're interested in enjoying the park and/or have kids.
The place is as pictured. Simple. Basic. Our host was very kind (even brought us scones one morning!) and made sure we had everything we needed. The place is a great value and perfect for a long-term stay. The living room is bright with three windows and its own door (acting like a 2nd room if you prefer). Our 2-year-old slept in a one person tent in the double door closet in the living room. It worked great! The living room, bedroom, and bathroom are at the top of the stairs. We brought our own child lock for the living room and kept a CLOSE eye on our little one if he was near the top of the stairs. The small dinning table is also upstairs so you have to plan ahead when bringing meals up and down. It's not terrible, but something to be aware of.
If you're traveling with kids, there's no front or backyard, but there is a public community garden across the street (couple houses down). We used it for picnics and if we needed a space for our 2-year-old out of the house if we were packing/sweeping. Also, if you're brining bikes, there is a very narrow hallway on the 1st floor that leads to the small kitchen. It's not really enough space for bikes, but we managed to fit two and side shuffle back and forth from the kitchen. We did have to breakdown and setup our bike chariot each time. It worked for us, but took a little extra prep time in the morning.
There's a Safeway .5 mile away and parking/laundry were easy to find. We didn't always get to park on 15th ave, but there was always parking on Fulton and (if you're terrible at parallel parking like me) you can still find parking.
We're already planning to stay here again in the future! If you're looking for a great value at a great location, this is the place for you. I would highly recommend staying here.
