Annabelle was a perfectly gracious host. Booking was easy, she was responsive to email and text inquiries, and she made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The neighborhood is gorgeous and is close to everything we love about SF - Alamo Square, Castro, Mission, Haight, Hayes Valley, Duboce, the list goes on! We couldn't have asked for a better place to call home for a few days.

She and her family were also really accommodating of the fact that we have an infant; it felt so good to know that we didn't have to worry about bugging people with our baby. Also, the backyard is worth the fee in and of itself! There's no grill for renters' use, which is kind of a bummer since there's not really any cooking possible in the kitchenette, but it didn't really matter when we sipped a glass of wine looking at the rolling San Francisco hills from a private yard. There's also a Keurig, so you can always have a fresh cup of coffee. While the plastic cups break my heart for our mama earth, it was SO convenient to have a hot cup waiting for me every morning!

Also convenient is the fact that there's a code to get in. Once you have that, you can come and go as you please. Annabelle was there to answer any questions, but we never even remotely felt like she was keeping tabs on us. It truly is a private urban getaway. We can't wait to come back!
