I had an absolutely fantastic stay here, for 16 nights. Matthew was a brilliant host by any standards, and we struck up quite a rapport whilst I was there.

The house is beautiful, clean and very welcoming. The upstairs bedroom and sitting room are both large and perfect for relaxing or getting work done. The view is almost unbelievable - it looks even better in person than in the photographs.

As regards the location, it couldn't be better. The walk from BART is 10-15 minutes depending on walking speed, and whilst very convenient for the buses on Mission Street it's fantastically quiet and relaxed. This being Bernal Heights the two blocks closest to the house are hilly, but a slightly longer walk gives a much gentler climb.

In short, I'm definitely looking forward to staying here again. I can't easily think of a way this stay could have been better.
