You can’t beat the price, location or accommodations, especially if you’re traveling with a baby! David and Kim’s place was absolutely perfect for us. My wife and I were traveling to San Francisco for a wedding with our 13 week old son. We chose the Richmond neighborhood to be close to the wedding venue but would absolutely return to this neighborhood anytime we return to SF. There are a variety of enjoyable, family friendly, reasonably priced restaurants within walking distance (with NO HILLS!!!) of the apartment. We easily walked to Golden Gate Park and many of its museums. We did not use public transportation because we rented a car – David was great and let us park in the driveway or block him in which was fantastic because otherwise parking might have been a little tricky. When we walked into the apartment we knew we had made the right choice: the apartment was very clean, well decorated, and very inviting. The laundry machines are directly outside of the apartment door which was a lifesaver for us with a baby that spits up a ton. My wife did a load nearly every day we were there.

We chose to stay with David and Kim because we wanted a family friendly apartment. We were worried that if our baby cried we might annoy neighbors but David assured us that they have two young children under 4 so they were used to all things baby. They were great and let us borrow a portable crib for our son so we didn’t need to bring one cross country (only people on airbnb who had one that we found!). The crib fit in the bathroom at night so he slept really well without any natural light. The same thing applies to the bedroom-it is great because there are no windows so it is super dark but there was little air getting into either room so we found ourselves hot in the middle of the night.

Our only warning about the apartment is that it is not sound proof. With a 13 week old on East Coast time we weren’t sleeping in too much but if we were trying to do so it would have been slightly difficult. David and Kim have two young children and anyone who has youngsters knows they are not known for sleeping in. We were able to hear the family walking around in the morning over our white noise machine. A young couple going out on the town, staying out late and hoping to sleep in, this is probably not your place. However, if you are looking for a GREAT place to stay with your young family, this is the location for you!

Overall the apartment and our visit were fantastic. We would certainly stay with David and Kim again!
