Maria's cottage was in the backyard of her house, accessible via a side door. This meant we could come and go without causing too much trouble to Maria. The house, a very nice Victorian, was situated in a nice and quiet neighborhood in the Haight-Ashbury area and everything was easily accessible via Lyft. The room was well heated and had everything we needed - Q-tips, coffee maker, fridge, toiletries etc. the bed was real comfortable! Maria was always there for us, whenever we needed something, all we had to do was ask and Maria was there. We cannot be more grateful for her and her hospitality. She also has two cute lively pups that we enjoyed being around. Thank you Maria!
