Abhay’s place was just as described — a beautiful floor-through, parlor-floor apartment, a short distance from lots of great SF neighborhoods. The place is sunny and quiet, on a steep, low-traffic residential street. Checking in was a breeze — I got the instructions a day in advance, and Nam, his roommate, and Cody, their sweet big puppy, greeted me on arrival.
If you’re not an especially private or reserved person, and you love dogs, you’ll feel right at home. The bed was comfy, the towels fluffy, bathroom immaculate (with excellent water pressure), and I felt totally safe and secure as a solo female traveler.
I was hardly around over the 1.5 days I stayed, but am glad I got to know Nam and throw a ball with Cody. They’re lovely, welcoming people with a friendly, laidback home. I’d stay again if they’ll have me.
