Gina and her family were very welcoming! My husband and I wanted a place close to the coast, and we chose well. We had a comfortable 2-night stay, with access to common areas. Most of our time was spent outdoors. Nearby there are plenty of coffee houses/restaurants, golden gate park, and a movie theater, to name a few. Most of our travel in the city was by foot. We accommodated 2 uber rides to get to/from Chinatown. Our goal was to explore by foot and have the beach/ocean view nearby. Thank you Gina and family! ...and your adorable dog :)
