San Francisco was our last stop on a four week trip to the U.S. and it was a real highlight!
Massimo & Mary made us feel welcome from the start and gave us all information we needed for a wonderful one week stay.

The studio looks even better than the fotos. It's bright, clean and freshly renovated with lots of nice details (kitchen sink, faucets, bathroom in fine Italian design), has it's own separate entrance and direct access to a wonderful garden.
There's even a laundry basin and clothes pegs (we really needed that on our fourth week on the road ... :-)

You'll find lots of little restaurants (mostly asian) on Clement Street nearby and a little bit farther (Clement / 25th Av. or Geary / 29th Av.) you can shop for groceries.

You can walk quickly to Golden Gate Park or the Presidio.
The Bridge/Bay and the Pacific Ocean (don't let the natives talk you out of it - it's possible to swim in the Pacific in August! :-) are a somewhat longer but really nice walk (mostly park area) away. About half an hour by bus will take you downtown or most anywhere else, connections are excellent on Geary & Clement.

So: "If You're going to San Francisco" - this is the place to stay :-)
Highly recommended!

Many thanks again to Massimo and Mary for their hospitality!
