Benoîte is a friendly, kind host who was very prompt and easy to communicate with. Her place is also located in a cute, peaceful neighborhood that’s close to Golden Gate Park and trendy restaurants on Divisadero with great access to public transportation.
The only thing I was surprised about is that her living room is not furnished at all, which was not a huge problem for me personally, but the kitchen was barely equipped, which can be quite inconvenient for a long-term stay. There are only a few random dishware and silverware (2-3 plates, 1-2 bowls, a couple spoons and forks only in total to share between the guest and the host) and no proper cooking knives other than small dull knifes, which makes it quite difficult to cook.
I think if it is a short-term stay, there won’t be any issues, but this place needs to be better furnished and equipped for a comfortable long-term stay.
