OMG! Such a great stay!! Cindy's place is sooooo unique, awesome, a private oasis and just plain cool on every level!!! Its cozy, clean & full of a wide range of interesting books that ,if brave enough, would take your whole trip to glean! As a young lady traveling for a last minute business trip alone, it was comforting to have someone so joyfully open their doors/world to me on such short notice late on a Friday night. When venturing out in the morning to explore the cute streets with good eats nearby (Brain Freeze really cool cafe around the corner- check out online) for a tasty bite to eat, I could hear laughter upstairs. Not wanting to disturb the fun above I started to sneak out the front door . To my surprise I was quickly met with a "Hey! You are welcome to come upstairs!", to which I quipped, "You talkin' to me?" (aka Im italian from Jersey haha). Not only was Cindy a gracious host, she introduced me to family my age and with no hesitation both graciously and sincerely inviting me to crash/ be a part of their weekend activities. And not a pity invite They genuinely wanted me to enjoy my time in San Francisco and as a result I did beyond my greatest expectation!! Cannot imagine a better duo to welcome you to this city. Cindy's infectious love for San Francisco is certainly a perk and rubs off on you. If you choose to adventure out into the city don't forget to take Cindy up on a her personally designed tour/suggestions! We ended our time together at one of Cindy's favorite places on the water and she even graciously invited her next new airbnb guest to join us. The trip ended with hugs goodbye and was confidently able to say to the new lucky guest ....he was in good hands. I'm certain if you want your privacy and do your own thing she's cool with that too but I'm so glad to say for my experience...When you stay here, you're not just a guest, you're a friend. BEST PLACE & PEOPLE EVER!!
