Pros:
-Jason responded quickly to messages and was able to accommodate me super last minute when my previous Airbnb had fallen through
-Amazing location right in the middle of North Beach - walking distance to so many great neighborhoods and lots of cafes and food within a few blocks
-Very spacious, lots of quirk and character throughout the home
-Loved having access to a washer/dryer
-Water filter provided
-Beautiful view of Golden Gate Bridge from dining table
-At night, it was quiet and I didn't have any issues sleeping with the window open. The only time there was noise into the late hours was Friday or Saturday evening, but probably wouldn't be an issue with window closed or ear plugs.
Cons:
-If you have a car, parking will be tough. It is mostly 2 hour street parking, so you'd have to move your car throughout the day (was able to find spots along Grant and along Chestnut) OR garage parking. I didn't end up parking in the garage, but looked like it was about $20 for 12 hour parking and I think $27 for 24 hours. At one point, I was lucky enough to find free ALL DAY street parking along Bay St and along North Point St - just watch out for street cleaning signs.
