It was my first proper stay in SF and the Mission is where you want to be if you want fun bars, cool restaurant and a village vibe. Mds apartment is in a quiet location, but right next to buzzy Mission Street and the underground transport called BART, which can take you downtown in minutes or to Oakland (worth a trip or two) in about 20 minutes. The apartment itself is large - would easily sleep two couples - and spotless but nothing fancy. Great to be in a genuine wooden turn of the century style SF home (they call 'em Painted Ladies!).
Perhaps would be a bit chilly in winter for those used to double glazing and fierce central heating, although the heaters in the bedrooms do the trick. Md was around and on hand all the time, and is a charmer herself! I would most certainly return!
