I have always wanted to live in San Francisco. I visited the city once as a teenager and always aspired to live there one day. Life makes other plans and New York is likely home for me now. When Covid came along, our family seized on the opportunity to spend some time in SF where I could work remotely. Finding Paul and Marie's place made my summer. It truly was extraordinary in every way.
In all honesty, I have been underwhelmed with my previous handful of Airbnb experiences - although not bad, they never lived up to the hype, pictures and imagery. This place was different. From the moment we walked in, the views and apartment took my breath away. Maybe it was a perfect afternoon on a perfect summer day but it was everything we wanted and more. The building was in an amazing area - a true SF experience. I wouldn't trade staying in Russian Hill for anything and the location in unbeatable. The building / space was incredibly modern and every single day we lived there was like a vacation.
I came back to New York less than 48 hours ago and already miss Paul and Marie's place.
