Thank you Mario for our wonderful stay! We have visited SF a number of times for work and holiday, and stayed in bland hotels in the Centre of town, which were impersonal and dull. We chose this apartment for a change and to allow us somewhere we could relax and hang out between work and fun during our week long stay. We cannot rate it higher and recommend it to anyone! Hayes Valley is a cute location, walking distance to great cafes like Artis & Bluebottle, fashion and lifestyle stores as well as Sisters bookstore & bar for drinks...there's lots of other places to eat and browse and the neighborhood is pretty and it's a quick trip to the city where you can change route to anywhere you need to go easily.
Mario's place is spot on and you won't be disappointed! In a great spot, it's squeaky clean, has the best collection of quirky art and nic nacs and an impressive bookshelf!! It feels like you're in a Domino magazine shoot, and it's obviously styled by someone who is a well travelled, thoughtful designer who loves SF! Other pluses include a kitchen equipped for people who like to cook, a washing machine with lovely Mrs. Meyers detergent ❤️ and a sweet bathroom with a tub, hairdryer, lots of towels and nice fig hand soap...details we loved!
The bed is super comfy, and the bedroom has a big wardrobe and door to a cute courtyard...the apartment is quiet and has windows you can open which look into trees! Woo hoo!
There isn't anything we could fault-Mario was a great host, mailing our key to Australia in advance and making sure we were happy while we were staying...we had a great time and LOVED Mario's place!!
