The best thing about this place is that it's in the sunniest neighborhood in San Francisco; it's three blocks from Delores Park. Look a few blocks north, west, or south and it was foggy, but we were in full sun due to Twin Peaks. The apartment has a full kitchen (though the table is only for two.) The place is clean (which is very important to me.) The apartment is plain, but the entire apartment was renovated less than 10 years ago with marble counters, tile floors throughout, stainless appliances, etc. The two blocks on Mission Street between 18th and 16th are dicy as someone else noted. However, getting from the 16th Street BART was simple. We walked west from the BART on 16th one block to Valencia, then south two blocks to 18th, then 1/2 block to the street for the apartment. The people in the houses around this one are very nice. Enjoy!!
