Thank you Yumi for letting me stay and thank you Catherine for your help! This was my very first Airbnb experience and it totally exceeded my expectations. Even though we didn't get to meet each other when I arrived, Catherine helped me to check-in via text messages and stayed available if I had any questions.

The room was everything I needed: large room, large bed, plenty of space for my stuff, huge windows (really appreciated when the sun rises). I got a little surprised when I found out I had to walk across the kitchen to get to the shared bathroom. It can be an issue when you really have to pee.

Overall, the apartment is very neat and clean. Every resident has their shelves in the cupboard in the kitchen so it's convenient to store your groceries. However, the fridge can be full most of the time. I lived on takeaways but know there's everything you need to cook.

Also, how convenient it was to be able to do my laundry in the apartment! I had to go outside to get quarters though.

If I really had one drawback, it would be the noise. The walls are almost paper thin. I could easily hear people talk from outside or loud residents. But it was bearable and didn't keep me awake at night.

The apartment is well located in Nob Hill, near Polk St. Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Walgreens, CVS, restaurants, bars...you name it.
You can easily go there by bus or cable car. Or by foot if you're ready to walk over the hill.

Next time I come back to San Francisco, I know I will check this room and hope it is available!
