Our host John was brilliant, really welcoming and eager to help with anything we needed. The accommodation was exactly as described and perfect for our stay ...we almost decided to live there!
The area was great once we got our bearings. It's a block from Divisadero which is a cool neighbourhood full of coffee shops and restaurants, and only a few blocks from Alamo Square Park (with the famous Painted Ladies). A little walk is Golden Gate Park and you can take a short bus ride to Union square and all of downtown in the opposite direction.
All in we really enjoyed our stay and felt at home, we'd highly recommend staying here especially with John as the host.
