I had a wonderful month in Zane's place in SoMA.
The place is arranged on four levels. The bottom level is just an entryway and the stairs. The next level has the main bedroom and the bathroom and is at street level. I really enjoyed emerging from there up to the kitchen/lounge level for the daytime. The top level (which you can use as a second bedroom) has a terrace with a view of the golden-roofed Ukranian Orthodox church one street over and skyscrapers in the distance. Really nice. I worked out up there every day for the view. I also ate dinner on the terrace on sunny days.
I'm English and I stayed during Euro 2020 and watching England so-nearly win the soccer European Championship on the big projection screen with the surround sound was super atmospheric. I also got in a few movies and just generally enjoyed the big screen and Apple TV.
I really enjoyed the well appointed kitchen. I'm not much of a cook but it certainly had everything I needed and more. The really big table was perfect for me for working at as I like to spread out with phone, notebooks, water, laptop, etc.
I walked the 2 minutes to Sightglass Coffee most weekdays and did an hour or two of work there. A great hipsterish coffee shop. Warning: they don't have wifi so if you need that you'll need to tether to your phone or go elsewhere. I didn't go to too many other places within walking distance but I happen to know that the Bloodhound is a good bar from a past visit. And of course you are in San Francisco so further afield there is a million things to do.
I found the four different levels kind of magical but I can see that being an issue for someone that doesn't like stairs. There is definitely some street noise (unless you sleep on the top level?) and some unhoused neighbors. If that turns you off then SoMa probably isn't for you. Zane's place is very safe and the front door is through an external gate (although this squeaks very loudly and WD-40 didn't fix it!) The place is full of stuff. The cupboards are stocked. I had to reorganize a little to put my few items away. This might be a problem for strict minimalists.
Parking is tricky. The street itself is 1 hour only until 10pm every day unless you have a permit. You might be able to get a short-term permit from the city? After a few days I gave up on lengthy spot hunting got a month permit at the lot at 301 6th St. This was $350 for something not much safer than street parking but at least meant I didn't have to cruise for a spot every time I used the car!
Overall I had a really great time and really actively enjoyed being in the space. Zane was an awesome host going above and beyond to provide a welcome and useful amenities.
