I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Joe's loft, from his welcoming visit and friendly chat to his thoughtfulness in leaving me a tasty sandwich for lunch since I arrived midday. Joe provided all the goodies a guest could possibly need -- including toiletries, a fascinating range of books, Netflix, wifi, lots of information on SF, and a kitchen stocked with all the necessary items and some unexpected treats like Kit Kat bars. The view was sensational and the historic apartment that survived the 1906 earthquake full of character reflecting an urbane host. Highly recommended for anyone who wants the quirky flavor of the city rather than a soulless hotel space.
