100% Must stay! I live in the Bay Area and was doing a corona-stay-cation to stretch my legs out from my roommates, and this place was exceptional! The sweeping views of Cole Valley were incredibly calming, the neighborhood is very quiet (except for the construction happening). The place is thoughtfully arranged, and the weather was generally perfect to spend daytime working outside on chilly days or nighttime on warm days. Otherwise the fog was a nice chilly hug.
The positives of this place:
- BEAUTIFUL view; all my Bay Area coworkers were jealous
- LOTS of light
- Large kitchen
- Plenty of working space
- Wonderful neighborhood (everybody cheered on medical workers every day at 8pm)
- Sweeping views from Twin Peaks for walks / picnics
- Deck is nice; it gave us a few visits from a hawk
- Hills provide nice, peaceful exercise
- Nest Yale Lock gave us a SUPER easy checkin and made it easy not having to care about keys.
The negatives:
- VERY steep hill / road outside; not very good area for runners
- We visited during fire season, so lack of AC is usually never an issue, but not being able to open the windows + sunlight = heat
- The Comcast Xfinity Wifi was terrible and spotty which caused a few work from home mishaps
Neighbors were generally quiet. Some noise from downstairs but it was all just fine. All-in-all this place gets two thumbs up from a San Franciscan
