I stayed at Shagun's place for about two weeks and had an amazing time there. Shagun is simply wonderful and a great host. I loved spending time with her, you will definitely understand that once you get to have conversations with her. There are endless food options near the house, but she was gracious enough to let me use her kitchen for whenever I wanted to just eat at home.
The location is superb, you have Painted Ladies, Alamo Square Park and Japantown just a few blocks away and the area leading to Alta Plaza park is just lined up with amazing restaurants. You will definitely have a great time here.
