It was nice to have our own studio in a downstairs home. There is a bus system available; however, I drove my car around SF to make it easier. Expect 25-30 minute commute. Accommodations were just what we needed- ie. Full bath, beds, large fridge, microwave. Door keypad to the back door made it extra safe. I used the coin laundry few minutes car ride from house to do laundry.
