Joe's flat is funky, fun, well-located and totally functional. At the summit of Russian Hill, it's not for the timid or faint of heart, however. We loved the location, getting to America's Cup sailing, Giants and A's games, deYoung, etc on foot (with a little help from Muni & BART) was a great way to see the City. Joe is not only a joy to deal with, his hospitality (and I'm talking about frig provisioning here) is truly thoughtful and generous. The neighbors we had contact with were young, cool and helpful, too.
