Noelle place was perfect for our week stay! We were their when San Francisco was having a Unusual Heat Wave, 100*! There was no air conditioner or window in the studio. Noelle did have a large floor fan in the room. When we got back from our day out we would open the our door to the hall and open the door to the courtyard in the back and place the floor fan in the our door. This helped so much! When it would cool down at night we would shut the door and sleep well. The dog does get rowdy in the evening but we just turned up the TV! We never had a problem with the dog in the morning. This neighborhood is quite and clean! Try Miki's for awesome Ramen and La Promenade for coffee and a sandwich! We would recommend Noelle's place to anyone looking a neighborhood experience. We felt very safe in Outer Richmond and every area of San Francisco!
