Haight Street is a brilliant location if you want to experience staying in a San Fran neighbourhood rather than the usual tourist centres. There are great local restautants, we ate at 'Uva Enoteca' on a whim and it was superb, just 2 mins walk away. Bean Bag cafe, a 10 min walk, was great for breakfast. Billy and John were so kind and welcoming, their ecletic apartment of artistic treasures was everything we hoped for, so much more interesting and convenient than a hotel. I highly recommend staying with them, both for location, the room, and their generous hospitality.
