Maria's home was perfect for us while we were in town for work. The location is excellent as the apartment is located on a pretty quiet residential hill surrounded by lively neighborhoods to walk to. Makes for a great workout and fun architecture walks as you embark for a nice cup of coffee, hanging out in Dolores park or having a nice date night dinner. The apartment is nicely decorated, comfortable, and has a nice view. It's cozy & quaint, but the split level layout makes it feel spacious. We found parking to be quite easy and Maria gives excellent tips for where to look for a spot. If you're looking for a nice, quiet, safe place to stay while being close to several vibrant neighborhoods...this is the spot!
