Anu's place was a small apartment off of the garage in his home. It was a good place for my two friends and me. It is a little far from the "tourist" areas like Fisherman's wharf but the painted ladies, we had a rental car and was able to get them but walking would have been very long. We didn't try public transportation so that would be another option. Anu was very helpful providing recommendations of places to go and eat. The place was just a few blocks from some restaurants and shoppes which was nice!
