This is the right place if you are looking for an accommodation in a cool and stylish place, with lots of character. Connie, the landlady, is a nice and cool woman and I had a really good chat with her in the kitchen the day after I arrived. She is really chatty and friendly. The room itself is unique and as soon as you come in you are surrounded by a nice aura. The bed is really comfortable and I slept like a baby. Absolutely the right place in SF for staying while visiting the city. There are few bars, restaurants and cafe. If you like almond croissant, go to the Verve (in Market Street, just 5 mins away), absolutely delicious. Anyway carousel room is a massive thumb up!
