My French friends (parents and three children) couldn't have been more pleasantly surprised by this spacious, inviting home. They loved in particular the two levels, with bedrooms and bathrooms on both floors, not to mention two separate outside areas, each with its own appeal. We appreciated in particular the nicely appointed kitchen with all the amenities for preparing family meals, and the living room provided a focal point for evening relaxation after taking in the sights of San Francisco. All the rooms actually feel bigger than in the photos, so it was nice not to have luggage and purchases underfoot (the space under the stairway was ideal for stowing stuff). Everyone felt at home in this tastefully renovated home, and it was terrific to have access to the host's sports equipment. The laid-back neighborhood is quiet and safe, with a pleasant park a block away and restaurants, cafes, and shops along Cortland Avenue within walkable distance. All in all, a perfect place to stay for a traveling family.
