We really enjoyed our time at Michael's place. The location worked really well for our time in the city.
It's a beautiful neighborhood, easily walkable to the iconic, crooked section of Lombard street, bars and restaurants on Polk St. and bike rentals near Fisherman's Wharf. Be sure to grab a donut from Bob's Donuts, if possible, so good!
If you like a great neighborhood feel outside the main hotel/shopping centre, i.e. Union Square, then consider this a perfect option.
