Sergio's building sits at the top of a steep street above Noe Valley--thus the terrific city view from the living room. It's a straight shot to the restaurants and shops of 24th Street. The 50s-era apartment (a duplex, really) is modernized inside. Sergio's place is exceptionally clean and neat, stylishly but comfortably furnished. Be advised that you must take off your shoes in the entryway and remain shoeless throughout the house. I ended up thinking how much better my own hardwood floors would look now, if I practiced that at home. Sergio is very easygoing and friendly. He should probably qualify as a Superhost, if he's not already.
