Sarah and James are very pleasant, and their apartment in Noe Valley is clean, modern, and perfectly appointed. In the mornings, my sister and I brewed the delicious coffee that Sarah stocked in the kitchenette, and after a busy week of sightseeing, we spent one lazy afternoon reading on the deck. The apartment is at the top of a steep hill and offers a beautiful view of the city. It is within walking distance of many great shops and restaurants on 24th Street in Noe Valley, and it is also within walking distance of the Castro (if you are in good shape). This private apartment is in a very safe residential area of the city, and is the perfect place for a vacation getaway.
