This location is *excellent* and the accommodations are comfortable and beautiful. There's much to do just down the street! (And it's very easy to get public transport from this location.)
His adorable cat, Sam, is very friendly and chill. Kurt is a very lovely person with lots of experience and advice. Definitely take his recommendations! He's very personable. We got in pretty late our first night, but he still made it a point to get to know us, how our travels were going, and what we wanted to accomplish on our stay in San Fran. I highly recommend staying here. It is very cozy and a great place to come back to after a long day of walking and sightseeing!
