Elmer was very very helpful with us. Our flight was cancelled, and we arrived 12 hours late. He stayed up to let us in, and when our suitcase did not arrive he stayed at home to wait for it, while we enjoyed San Fransisco. His dog, London, is very calm, and he was great with my daughter, who's only six years old. After staying with Elmer, we were going camping, and he then helped us with camping gear.
I greatly recommend this apartment and Elmer. He is a wonderful host, and we felt very welcome.
