Everything was super smooth from even before booking to the end. The host(s) answered my question promptly checked in with me every so often leading up to the arrival.

Alex and Shaelen also made sure someone was around to check me in - explaining everything (and more!) that I needed to know. They even left us some drinks (which we took advantage of!). Checking out was very easy, and they helped me out as I spent the afternoon after check out in San Fran.

The actual apartment was even better than I expected, clean with lots of room to just relax. In fact, I spent a little too much time relaxing one time. It's easy to get lost lounging on the sofa or on the bed against the window.

Shower was strong with plenty of hot water, and the head was tall enough to accommodate my 6'5" friend and his 5'11" girlfriend. Funny enough, he had made comments before we arrived about how short the shower head at the previous hotel was.

Location is perfect: taquerias and other authentic Mexican eateries 4 blocks away, Southern Pacific brewing (excellent brews for $5 and outdoor seating) was around the corner, other Mission District nightlife was 3-4 long blocks away, and most importantly, my cousin's wedding reception at Central Kitchen (probably the most amazing 5 course meal I have had to date) was around the corner.

It's also very safe location for everyone at all times of the day.

Overall, an excellent place to stay for your trip to San Fran.
