This being our first experience using Airbnb, we felt more reassured staying with Samantha as she has hosted many people in San Francisco and has very favourable reviews. We found her to be a wonderful host, friendly, approachable and accommodating to our needs. Her description of the living space was accurate and the house very much met our requirements for our relatively short stay. The Noe Valley area is not only a charming little suburb of San Francisco, but one with convenient links into the city centre. It is also a short walk from Glen Park, where one can catch the BART to SF International Airport.

We would highly recommend Samantha and her home, and this positive experience has made us keen to try out Airbnb again (and go back to SF again one day, hopefully!).
