I had a superb stay at Maria's place :)
The home is in a central location - close to Market Street, and the Financial and Mission districts.
I was super impressed with the homely feel of the apartment: it's modern, clean and has a great vibe. I particularly enjoyed the stocked breakfast, tea and coffee for guests in the kitchen, with lots of organic produce.
Maria is a great host: super friendly, welcoming, responsive and also respectful of privacy. Plus Sequoia the dog is a charmer!
Thanks for a wonderful stay Maria; if and when I return to SF I'll definitely be staying again!
