Ding is indeed a Super Host! He's place is wonderful and well equipped for long and short term travellers. Three things I would like to point out about his space: great location (5 min walk to Golden Gate Park, 2 blocks from Lucky Supermarket, Wellsfargo bank and starbucks, 5 blocks from Target and Trader Joes), WONDERFUL bed and good bathroom. A good point to know is that NOPA is a college/young neighborhood. We had great conversations with Ding and my boyfriend Renato and I felt that we won a great friend. We highly recommend!
