Marion is a warm, gracious host. Her place was wonderful for a long-term stay. The private suite was perfect for some quiet at-home days. Her Portrero Hill neighborhood is a delight - quiet, friendly, with a street full of small shops, restaurants, and bookstore just a block away. There is a bus route right outside the front door but it's also a great neighborhood for walking, and reasonable walking distance to many parts of San Francisco (be prepared for hills, though). I highly recommend Marion's place and would happily stay again.
