I loved my stay in the studio and it had all the facilities I needed. I wondered if I'd miss having a cooker but in fact the microwave is multipurpose. The bed is exceptionally comfortable and I loved the unusual and original furnishings. Springer was a perfect host. She was available to answer questions very promptly and yet was not intrusive. Location wise the studio was further from Downtown than I had imagined although I found the Muni system from California & Presidio (a 2 minute walk) excellent. On the other hand the neighbourhood is lovely - quiet and very safe - and an unexpected bonus was getting to know much more of the city than just Downtown tourist areas. I unhesitatingly recommend the studio and Springer as a host. If I visit San Francisco again I'd love to return to the studio as my base.
