First of all, my stay at Samantha's was actually for my Mom, who had never visited SF before.

Samantha's place was the perfect spot to get acquainted with SF for someone new to town. She was very responsive and transparent about everything.

The location was close to a BART stop (24th St.), major MUNI Line (14) for easily getting around, or a short ride via Uber/Lyft. Easy access to delicious Mission style burrito (El Farolito), Walgreens, coffee shops. If you have a car, parking can be a bit difficult, but we always found a spot. Samantha graciously gave up her spot when we first arrived.

Not only that, she provided some local goodies which my mom enjoyed (me too!). Not to mention the great patio connected to the unit to sit out on, after a long day of exploring.

I'd highly recommend Samantha's place, as it had everything we needed for our stay and then some. It's an ideal spot to get a "locals" feel for San Francisco. I'd stay again, if I didn't live here.
