This is a really great garden apartment below a traditional SF Victorian home in a lovely Noe Valley neighborhood. There are lots of restaurants, shops and coffee places nearby. Unlike other reviewers, I did not at all find the walk to/fro the Castro to be taxing in anyway. The unit is well appointed and VERY large - much larger than it looks in the pictures. There are two doors which open on to a private back patio that is shared with the occupants upstairs, but is fenced off for privacy for both. I found the backyard and the patches of sunlight very lovely. The bed is super comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked. I would say there is some slight noise from the occupants upstairs, mainly in the mornings, so if you are a very light sleeper, this might disturb you. I will try to book this place again and again.
