James is a gracious and accommodating host - he was very responsive to any questions or issues. The apartment is very comfortable, beautifully designed and furnished, with a fully equipped kitchen, and has a spectacular view of the city and bay. The bathroom is one the nicest and most spacious that I've ever stepped into! James has also cultivated a gorgeous garden in the backyard with fabulous blooming trees. The location is great too - 5 - 10 minute walk to Glen Canyon Park (a hidden gem), the Noe Valley business district, and Diamond Heights shopping center (grocery store, pharmacy).
