Anka's place is excellently well set up for a short stay in San Francisco. Due to differing schedules, we never even crossed paths- but Anka is a great communicator, and made it easy for me to access the place with a keypad entry, learn about the apartment via an informational folder, and come and go freely.

As advertised, the apartment is sunny and bright. The street is at the northern end of the Castro, so borders the clean-cut district near Buena Vista park. It was easy to find the place and get street parking (though there is a 2 hour limit almost everywhere on weekdays). As a female traveling alone, I was glad to feel like I could navigate outside at night in safety.

I would highly recommend Anka's place to a friend staying in the city- probably a more suitable setup for a solo traveler looking for a comfy home-base, not so much for couples or someone looking to party!
