Stayed at this super stylish Pacific Heights apartment during the JPM Health conference, when colleagues were paying twice per night what we were (and they were staying in crappy 70s chain hotels). This felt like an example of the original "pitch" of airbnb back in the day.
The apartment is in Pacific Heights, my favourite neighbourhood in SF. 10 min uber to Union Square. Presidio and Embarcadero are walkable, and Golden Gate Park also not far away. Filmore has all the shops, bars, restaurants you need, and is 2-3 blocks away.
The place is v stylish. We had a dinner party one evening and everyone was wowed. Also - to an unusual extent - it's well kitted out. There was nice olive oil, salt and pepper, but also things like steak spice mix, and even really good quality pans and sharp proper chefs knives. It's a place that is treating you as a grown-up and asking to be treated the same way. We found a bottle of wine in the fridge when we arrived, and left one etc. Great find.
