This was our first Airbnb experience, and it did not disappoint! This was also our first overnight stay in San Francisco, so we weren’t sure what to expect. The location was great for families, especially those with little ones. It is located in a more residential area, where the homeless population is much smaller. There’s a park right across the street, and the beach is a quick 5 min drive. If you prefer to be closer to tourist attractions such as Fisherman’s Wharf, Oracle Park, or SFMOA just know that you will have about a 25-30 min drive. Getting an Uber or Lyft is a great option for about $30 one way.
The room itself was spacious, even with our group of 5. Noise was never an issue for us either day or night. It has large, beautiful windows that bring in natural light. These windows can also be covered with privacy curtains. The best part about the room was the cleanliness and the extras they provided. We always end up forgetting something small, however, they provided everything we needed anyways. We also felt very safe in our room as there were multiple entry points leading to our room that were secured. Although this room is in their home, it truly feels like a completely private stay!
Lastly, I’m sure they’re working on resolving this, but they let us know a few hours before our arrival that the sofa bed had recently been broken. It wasn’t a concern for our sleeping arrangements because they provided a large air mattress. However, the air mattress took up a large portion of the living area. For us, it wasn’t a big issue, but it is still good to know exactly what you’re getting before reserving. Again, they may have resolved this by now!
And of course, being outside of your room and enjoying the beauty of San Francisco should be your top priority! We are definitely looking forward to stay here again.
