Ming's place is highly recommended. The surrounding area is residential, making it quiet and ideal for staying if you do not want to be in the middle of the busy downtown. The place is located close to several sights including Golden Gate Park and the nearby streets are filled with excellent restaurants for you to try. Ming's place is also near several public transport options, making the entire city accessible with a bus ride away to all the tourist locations. I would definitely stay in Ming's place should I have the opportunity to visit San Francisco again in the future.
