My husband and I highly recommend staying at Miriam's during your San Francisco vacation. The living space is small and homey, with a refrigerator, coffee maker, microwave, and washer and drier. The room temperature was comfortable due to some recent heating system improvements. The neighborhood is extraordinarilly beautiful with lovely homes and gardens, but none of the chaos of the SF tourist spots. Miriam even suggested a beautiful nearby walk, called the Ridge Trail, where you can walk past the beautiful houses and landscaping and then either take a hidden staircase or walk up hills to the center of SF. There you will have 360 degree views with no one else around. There is also a pretty park nearby and a lovely area with cafes and shops in addition to the famous Haight Ashbury district. Miriam was friendly and helpful, but not at all intrusive. We were able to park our rental car without difficulty. Overall, it was a lovely and (except for some public transport snafus), a pretty hassle-free vacation.
