Anita’s place is clean and spacious. The master bedroom is huge with large windows with panaramic views all the way to the downtown. The kitchen has everything you need if you want to cook. Microwave, 2 burner cooktop, toaster oven and plenty of cookware. We loved sitting at the breakfast bar and looking at the SF skyline at breakfast. The cafe 1 block down is a cozy place for breakfast or lunch. We were on the go everyday so never tried dinner there.
You will have to travel to get downtown for entertainment or tourist spots. Uber is $15-24 one way depending on the time of time. You can walk 25 minutes and catch the BART underground which will take you all the way to the Embarcadero for $2.50 1 way. From there you can walk or, use Muni for trolley, bus or cable car. If you plan to use Muni download the app. No need to stand in tourist line for cable car tickets - purchase on the app and walk one block down from the cable car turnaround to the next stop. Saves an hour wait in the line to board the cable car. If you want to go to the GG bridge - take the BART to the Embarcadero stop and from the bus stop there you can take the free PresidioGo bus to the Presidio transit stop at the Presidio visitor center. Catch the free Crissy field shuttle bus there and it will drop you at the GG bridge visitor center. Thursday nights the Exploratorium has an adults only 6-10pm. 2 bars and no little kids. Highly recommended. For exploring outside the city we rented a convertible VW bug from Enterprise at Beach street for $50. Return until 10pm. Saw Muir Woods, winery and dinner in Napa valley and were back by return time.
It was nice to come back to Anita’s where it was super quiet and away from all the tourist and downtown bustle. We got to see everything but could put our feet up at night and enjoy the quiet. I highly recommend Anita’s if you don’t want to be downtown.
