Gavina is a kind and responsive host who quickly answered the questions we had during our 13 day stay. This place is a good size with 2 bathrooms, lounge, kitchen and two bedrooms.
It's fair to say that the apartment would benefit from some updating and refreshing as in parts it's a little shabby and tired, and due to the dark lighting and dark walls, the kitchen and lounge are a bit dingy.
A new coat of light coloured paint in the lounge and kitchen would make it a more comfortable space to be. Some of the furniture could also do with updating; for example, the beds in the second bedroom were very soft and I wasn't a fan of the plastic sheets.
As for location, it's in a quiet, largely residential area (Outer Sunset) just 5 mins walk from Ocean beach - a huge expanse of sea and sand - which is really nice. It's also close to the only street in the area that has bars, restaurants and shops - so overall, a good location if you looking for somewhere chilled but not totally without amenities.
Overall - a great location (for a quiet stay), a really kind and warm host, and a mediocre apartment (which could be a really great apartment with a bit of touching up and updating) and we enjoyed our stay.
