I enjoyed staying with Shirin and her husband. We both were gone for most of the day and in our respective rooms at night. The place was clean and the bed is VERY comfortable. I would highly recommend it for someone looking for a nice quiet place to stay as I was. It is in the heart of tons of shopping and restaurants in the mission district. I only wished I had stayed longer so I could have sampled more. Although the street is busy and there is a lot going on outside, I was blissfully unaware, especially at night when I wanted to sleep. I also highly recommend St. Francis Fountain and Diner at the end of the block for breakfast or lunch!
