This place is a great. Just off the freeway and a hope skip away from downtown SF, Kysi's spot was exactly what I needed when visiting SF for a couple work days in the city. Located in Portola, the neighborhood surrounding the place felt cozy and friendly and definitely like San Francisco. But without the bustle and big buildings of downtown.
Checking in was a breeze. And a screw-up checking out on my part led to my host taking mercy on me, packing up what I left behind and leaving it in a convenient spot without so much as a complaint about my oversight.
The balcony is gorgeous at sunrise. Made me wish I was on vacation so I could see the sunset, too. The big bed is comfy. The bathroom shower is roomy with great water pressure. And the spacious kitchen made me want to return so I can cook an elaborate meal in it. The living room on the main floor is roomy with a work space in it.
I highly recommend this rental especially if you are looking for a space to spend some time in. But it definitely works as a quiet space away to retreat to at night.
