We had a great stay at Cynthia's place. Cynthia welcomed us personally and recommended us many things to do and places to eat in the Mission and SF. The studio is super-clean and tastefully decorated. In the area are many great places to eat. Of course, you may hear some noises from outside, but that's the case in most cities. The street is actually rather quiet. Overall great value and great hospitality from Cynthia!
