We stayed for just over a month at the Balcony on Fillmore. Communication with Marin prior and during our stay was always prompt, helpful and friendly. Marin was there to greet us and let us into the apartment on arrival and provide us with some local information. The location of the apartment is fantastic, with the bus stop outside and a number of great eating places, shopping and supply stores. The apartment was very comfortable, with a well equipped kitchen, TV, Wi-Fi and great hot water. The main bedroom was exceptionally quiet and the 2nd sleeping area that was located in the living/lounge area was also reasonably quite. You can only just hear the buses and traffic starting up in the morning but it really was not an issue. Some activity in the above apartment above was also heard but once again not an issue. We loved staying at Marin's apartment and she went out of her way to make us comfortable and ensure we had everything we needed. She organised a very special trip for us which unfortunately we missed because we mixed up the date. Marin re-organised the same trip for us. Nothing was too much trouble. Marin is fantastic host and I would thoroughly recommend her apartment for a stay in San Francisco.
