Peter is an excellent host - extremely responsive and conscientious in terms of the directions he gives, the resources he has available for guests (e.g., pamphlets about happenings in town, a book of instructions about the apartment). The house is historic and charming, which means it has its quirks and hasn't been recently renovated, so you might be disappointed if you like sleek and modern, but I found it comfortable, clean, and quiet. The neighborhood is fantastic! Lots of old-style Italian restuarants and cafes, and beautiful green areas. Very close to Fisherman's Wharf and all that has to offer. I was in town during a very large health care conference where hotel prices are jacked up to unreasonable rates, so I found Peter's apartment very reasonably priced for what you get. A lovely stay.
