This was a very nice apartment, easy to find, excellent communication from Sharon leading up to our visit and very convenient being able to park our hired car in the driveway. That said a car is not needed in SF ( we just had it for the onward journey.) West Portal train/metro station is a very short walk away with excellent links downtown and linking with the bus network as needed. The West portal is a nice area with good local shops and excellent places to eat ( the fab Peruvian Restaurant was our vote winner for best eating this holiday.) We found we got fewer square feet per dollar then in New York but that is probably a reflection of the higher costs of living in San Francisco. Also noticed a slightly musty feeling on arrival ? due to recent cleaning or the legendary San Francisco fog , but overall a very nice apt and it was great to meet and chat to Sharon. Overall a great stay in your fantastic city, thank you.
