As a family staying with Rosy's family we found the apartment to be spacious, comfortable, well equipped and incredibly elegant. A wonderful space to return to after a busy day - better than a real home from home. The welcome from our hosts was very warm. Upon arrival after a long journey they had prepared a meal for our travel weary children. They were knowledgeable about places to visit and the local public transport which we found to be very useful. The location of the apartment, Lower Haight, is vibrant yet quiet and safe at night with easy access to grocery stores, deli’s, laundry and some good bars and restaurants. The buses stop close by and run very frequently to most areas. We found no need for a car during our stay. Staying with Rosy and her family in San Francisco was a unique and wonderful experience and one that we would love to repeat at some future point - an authentic San Francisco experience, in a beautiful neighbourhood with wonderful hosts and much MUCH better than staying in a hotel. If you want to experience the REAL San Francisco then stay with Rosy !
