I stayed for about a month and enjoyed my stay. Communication was very fast and effective. Parking is always a concern in SF but I never had to worry about parking here. Wifi is speedy, great for video conferencing. Even though the house is next door to a high traffic road it was a noise non factor. The room is below the main floor and shares a wall with an adjacent room, so you are able to hear footsteps and snoring; however it never effected my sleep. Local neighborhood feels very safe but stay cautious of speedy drivers. Walking to the beach never got old. A grocery store is across the block.
