Brenda was super friendly and helpful. She was only there on my first day but was happy to give me helpful information about transport and where to eat. I'm a first time solo traveller so she was really great, letting me know the areas that might make me nervous. She made sure I had enough blankets (it's cold right now) and a map and info on San Francisco before she left. The room was super clean and the house is in a great spot, really easy to get downtown on public transport and a short walk to the Mission. I made friends with her super friendly cat on my stay. I would recommend Brenda's place and it's great for anyone wanting to be near the Mission.
