This location is ideal for nature lovers - right across from Golden Gate Park, 10 blocks away from Lands End, and 20 blocks away from Ocean Beach. Downtown SF is about 30+ minutes away by bus if you ever want to sightsee or go shopping.
Highly recommend for solo travelers who want to avoid tourist-packed hotels in the noisy and smelly Downtown SF. Emily's place is a studio room in a quiet family neighborhood. There is a very clean mini kitchen and a small work desk. (I can hear the fridge and the room next door every night, but it is understandable for any house.) I also recommend walking to Richmond District and discover some hidden gem restaurants. They are as excellent as those in Mission District/Chinatown.
