Linda was an outstanding hostess for my short trip. She is a very friendly, well educated lady who has lived in San Francisco most of her life. Her home is quaint, comfortable, and quiet. It is located in an area of San Francisco with beautiful views, just a few minutes walk from public transportation, the Mission district and great restaurants. Her home was clean and she made me feel welcome with tips about the city and a continental breakfast every morning. She even graciously went out of her way to accommodate a couple of special requests. My room and bathroom were right next to each other on the main level of the house, and there was a door for privacy between my room and the kitchen. Her home is perfect for anyone that needs a safe, inexpensive place to stay, but doesn't need to be right near the main tourist areas of San Francisco. I would only not recommend staying here if you have mobility issues and do not have a car, because she is at the very top of a steep hill and it could be challenging for some to climb. If you can handle the hill, you will be staying less than a block from a park with amazing 360 degree views of the city. I can't recommend Linda and her home highly enough, and I would definitely consider staying here again on a return visit.
