Sam and Jerry were great hosts, very friendly and couldn't have been more helpful when I had any questions . Communications in advance of my stay were very clear which made it easy for me to find/access the apartment. The apartment is very close to San Francisco's excellent MUNI public transport system so getting about the city and exploring the districts is very easy. Noe Valley is a lovely area, very safe and clean with great shops and eating places. The apartment is very cosy, homely and spacious. There was plenty of information on things to do in and around San Francisco. I was a first timer to the city and loved every minute!
