You walk in at check in to a lovely home, a personalized note from Trisha & Adam, and a wonderful bottle of a good California red wine. What more can you ask for? The apartment is just as beautiful and comfortable as it appears in the pictures, and the view to the backyard (which you have access to as well) is simply breathtaking. The place is incredibly comfortable, including the bed (and I'm somewhat picky about mattresses) and I wish I had this bathroom and shower in my home! The place is well provisioned with sheets, towels, paper goods and cooking supplies. The neighborhood is awesome - very quiet and safe - with lots of great restaurants, cafes and wash and fold laundries in easy walking distance. You are barely more than one block from Golden Gate Park, one of San Francisco's most beautiful spots. You are a 15-20 minute car ride from downtown and only a few short blocks to bus lines that go downtown. But the hosts are what really make this place. Trisha & Adam are warm hosts who make you feel like a welcome guests without intruding in the least. They are incredibly responsive to your questions both before and during the stay. You will hear their toddlers every now and then, but there are far worse sounds than that of children at play and laughing (and it did not affect my ability to get work done in the least).
