This is a great location. I was visiting with my family for my daughter's UCSF PhD presentation. The house is walking distance to UCSF (about a mile). There are no hotels in this area. Also, it is a whole house with a cute yard. The kitchen is lovely. My family hung out in the house on the rainy day we were there.
The only downside to the location is that 19th Ave is a busy street. The house has good noise protection but it was still a little noisy on the rooms facing the street.
