Mark and Sarah have been absolute lovely hosts : they've managed to find that subtle balance between taking care of their guests and privacy, which is very important to me.
This is a three levels house : they live in the upmost and occasionally knock at the door of the middle level to introduce themselves to the guests if they haven't been able to be there for the check-in.
The green bedroom has the entire third level for itself, beneath the two others, and must be accessed through the common areas ( living room and kitchen ) of the second level. So it is really private , with a lot of sun from the View on the Bay and its own bathroom, which is spacious and has a tub ;)
I used to think it was kinda expensive in the first place but I totally understand now the price ( with regards to the San Francisco standards of course ) , because of :
- the privacy
- the big private bathroom
- the free Wifi
- the nice setting ( a couple of blocks , which is nearly 5 - 10 min walk, from very good restaurants and several buses lines )
- the hospitality of Mark & Sarah ( they use the AirBnB app to communicate with you and ask if you need anything, in order to minimise any feeling of intrusion... great balance as I said earlier )
I recommend, definitely ;)
