Emily could host a hosting ho-down at a hostel amongst a host of other hosts and hostesses and still be the hostess with the most-est!

In all seriousness, the only reason I went through the trouble of constructing that unnecessarily alliterative sentence was the high caliber of her hospitality.

Gracious and welcoming from the moment I stepped through the door, Emily has a shining, open personality that might remind you of your favorite Aunt.

The house was gorgeous and clean with a quite private backyard where I saw several hummingbirds flitting about. The inside is modern and tastefully bright. The couch in the living room is quite comfy. I spent most of my time at the high top table doing work, and staring out the window, which showcased a breathtaking view of downtown SF. Not a bad place to bang out a hundred and fifty emails (not exaggerating).

The Room was large and clean, plus she provides amenities that outdo most hotels:

- More towels than you need.
- A bathrobe
- A pair of house slippers
- A wonderfully full bookcase

Other Reasons you should hang with Emily:
- Free reign of the kitchen and fridge
- Her boyfriend, James, is an amazing cook (they fed me)
- Great taste in wine (she gave me some of that too)
- She recycles AND composts
- She knows where all the happening spots are in SF

In short, look no further.. This place is like a micro-resort!
