Ari’s place is conveniently located in NOPA, next to tons of great cafes, restaurants, and the Independent on Divisadero. Public transport is super accessible and the area is walkable as well. There’s a small area outside the Airbnb with a table and chairs to eat on a sunny day. We had everything we needed and always felt safe coming back to apartment!
The only caveat is that the sliding doors and windows are covered with thin drapes/cloth. We (two girls) left it covered for majority of the time after a man walked by and peered in. Quiet hours are from 10pm to 7 or 8am however please note that old Victorians have thin walls and we could hear talking and metal music coming through the walls every night past quiet hours. That’s just part of the SF experience so bring noise cancelling earbuds if you’re sensitive to noise!
