If you're looking for a place close to the Castro District, this is it! Connie's is next door to or very close to great places to eat, ice cream, Brasilian coffee and treats (which are my favorites), just one block off Market Street and a quick 5-minute walk to 5 Corners on Castro Street, and to Delores Park.
The room was well lit and clean and the bed was extremely comfortable, once I hit the bed I slept all night. Quiet household. Connie has 3 cats; one I never saw, but the two black ones were very friendly, especially Monty. The one and a half bathrooms were very clean and easily accessible both day and night without disturbing anyone. Nice towels and linens, and the kitchen area was just for coffee or tea in the mornings, but no guest cooking or refrigerator space, but I wasn't in San Francisco to stay in and cook, or I would have stayed home. Instead for breakfast and lunch I frequented the local cafe, Orphan Andy's or took streetcars down to Fisherman's Wharf to enjoy the seafoods that San Francisco is known for.
There is a nice sitting or day room for reading or catching the TV news. The Carousel Room had a piano which Connie had previously advised me needed tuning, but she even located a piano tuner who could tune it at short notice. (Thanks, Connie)
Connie was very informative and polite to me while there, and even offers a 3-ring binder with all of the house rules and local places and things to do around her area. READ IT and you shouldn't have any questions.
I'm planning another trip back to SFO again soon, and believe me, if it's available, I'll be booking Connie's home again!
I could only give 5 stars, but would have gone with 10!!!
