We stayed at Dana's for a month when we moved to San Francisco and were looking for an apartment in the city. We really enjoyed the privacy of the space - its a stand-alone studio above the garage, with two private entrances (second is on the back street - very convenient especially at daytime). It's a little more dated than pictures show, although generally clean, you might find few spiderwebs around the place.
The place itself has enough space for a couple, includes a private bathroom. I think its amazing for a short stay.
If you staying longer than a brief vacation, there are few things worth mentioning:
- There are only hangers in the wardrobe, no shelves or drawers - it's not possible to unpack.
- Kitchen has everything you need for some cooking (although we didn't use it often). There is a small fridge, which is great for essentials and leftover take away, however you cannot fit too much and I wouldn't trust it with meat.
- There is no washer - you'll have to walk a few blocks to the nearest laundry place.
Pictures are generally accurate, except there is no red sofa as in pictures - its just an empty space now.
Wifi was working great during our stay. However we had some issues finding wifi password on the first day - look for a yellow folder on the shelves - it's all in there!
The best part for me was the location - its 5 min away from Bart station, super easy to get to the center, there are buses too, there are few very good restaurants around, nice local supermarket, even a jazz place on a weekend! Very quiet, easy to walk around, has a real neighborhood feel.
Dana wasn't there when we checked in, but she was easy to communicate with, and solved some issues we had very quickly! Thank you!
