Ashley's apartment was just great and so was Ashley. Ashley was very welcoming and as we arrived late in the evening, she had even gone to the trouble of making sure we had some breakfast provisions for the next morning (Bagels, cream cheese, Orange Juice etc.)
This was a very nice way to start the day.
Ashley was the perfect host, as she was available and had plenty of good local knowledge or advice. Even though she lives upstairs , she was not not the least bit intrusive in any way.
The apartment itself is very comfortable with everything well described. The beds & linen etc were really clean & comfortable as was the whole apartment.
The location is terrific as it is in a very nice & safe feeling neighbourhood. Lots of restaurants & Bars. I can especially recommend the Thai restaurant "Baan" which is just around the corner in Irving.
Transport to downtown (or anywhere) is easy. 30 min ride on the tram will take you to Powell station or a few minutes longer to Embarcadero. The tram only costs $2.25, but I would suggest you buy a MUNI passport and ride all the trams and buses as well as the cable cars all over San Francisco.
Wish we had had more time here, but we will be back and if possible we will stay here again.
Thanks Ashley
