I stayed here for two nights for an orientation at UCSF. Martha is a wonderful host, very warm and helpful. The space is more elegant than it shows in the photos. It is spotless and eclectically decorated with interesting artwork and fine finishes such as recessed lighting. What you don't see in the photos are the lovely wood and cork floors and the quality of the finishes throughout the space. The bedroom is upstairs with a large desk and reading chair and ample storage space in a large closet. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom and listening room are downstairs. The dwelling is completely detached from the main house on a large lot and is exceptionally quiet. The walk to UCSF was 20-25 minutes. I didn't use any public transport, but the stops are within 1 to 4 blocks depending on which one you take. I chose to park in the UCSF parking garage because my event started in the morning, but I would have been very comfortable leaving my car in this area and parking on the side street next to the house. The area feels very safe. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend the space to friends!
