Expect an engaged host at the beginning, someone who will make sure your needs are met. Valentino will provide wonderful advice on where to go, what to do and how to enjoy your visit to San Francisco. His home is very lovely, clean and neatly kept. It is in Nob Hill, just a block away from Top on the Mark, the Fairmont Hotel . It is on the street with the cable car, which is just lovely and so San Francisco. Although one can hear the cable car indoors, it does not run through the night and does not interfere with sleeping. Yes, they are building a condominium next door, but the construction is limited to the daytime.
I was here on business and it was just lovely to come "home" at the end of the day, rather than to an ordinary hotel room.
