Kate is a fantastic host. I first stayed at her place over two years ago, and had such a pleasant time that it has become our go-to when visiting the city. It is clean and quiet. The coded access is very convenient and makes check-in and check-out simple. The neighborhood is great and West Portal station is just a few minutes walk if you want to make your way to downtown. Would highly recommend Kate's place to anyone looking to stay outside of the city center.
