The apartment room was great and looks just like the pictures, but the building and neighborhood were pretty bad. It's located in the Tenderloin, which is not a good neighborhood. It's very loud, dirty, and uncomfortable to live in, especially for women because you will regularly be catcalled and harassed. While it is relatively cheap to live here, you sacrifice safety and peace of mind. The building is pretty run-down--one of the elevators was broken for the 2 months we stayed there and the other elevator smelled weird and once had poop on the floor. While the room is nice, it's very noisy. The windows rattle with the wind (bring earplugs) and you can hear all of your neighbors and people going in and out of their apartments. The place is close to good shopping and food places, but overall would not recommend. If you're thinking of staying for a long period, be absolutely sure you want this place--airbnb's "long term policy" is absurd and the host will not refund even if you try to cancel right after booking.
