The unit is clean and the garden is amazing. The neighborhood felt safe. Depending upon your needs, this could be an ideal spot. It is a few blocks from Devil's Teeth bakery on Noriega which was a bonus for me but the beach was many blocks away so I did not walk. I knew there would be noise above the unit so I was not annoyed. Perhaps download a white noise app. if noise bothers you. A very nice touch is plenty of fresh drinking water available with Diane's Brita filtered water.
A few quirky, unexpected aspects for me: The unit is accessed through the owner's garage via a very stuck and loud door, you walk down a rug runner to the unit. At each side of the runner is a curtain where the owner has tried to tidy the garage so you don't see so much of their stuff. The washer and dryer are behind one of the curtains. Someone was in garage to do laundry while I was sleeping so it was a little weird for me.
There is a kitchenette tucked into a nook under stairs which has a microwave, small fridge, toaster, coffee maker and fire extinguisher (smart). Dishes are provided as is coffee and tea. To wash dishes a small dish drainer sits on the small bathroom vanity/sink along with gloves and dish soap.
I did not meet Diane but she emailed me and seemed very nice.
