I found Marina's studio ideal for my stay in San Francisco. She's a super host for good reason. The basement studio is a comfortable and clean space with touches such as snacks and bottled water that make you feel at home. Marina is very responsive to questions or concerns. The neighborhood is a quiet residential area with a grocery store and restaurants within walking distance. The grocery store is particularly convenient if you want to stock the mini fridge with a few items or use the microwave. I felt safe during my stay. No concerns at all. Most attractions are a convenient rideshare away. As other reviewers have noted, public transit is accessible from this neighborhood. I found the studio provided me with the best of both worlds -- easy access to the sites I wanted to visit as well as a peaceful place to start and end my day. I highly recommend Marina's studio.
