marion's place is perfectly located in the heart of potrero hill, just steps away from the shops and restaurants of 18th street. the room is small but perfectly comfortable for a stay in the city, and marion goes above and beyond with thoughtful touches like a fresh water pitcher and a bottle of wine. the bed is comfortable, the room is extremely quiet (almost unsettling to a new yorker like me!), and there's plenty of closet space should you choose to unpack. the shared bathroom was a bit of a worry for me, but only one morning did i encounter a bit of a traffic jam. the rest of the time, it wasn't an issue at all. marion herself is lovely and welcoming - her house feels like a home.
