I had a fantastic stay here. Good area. On a quite street but 2min from a lot of awesome restaurants and night life, and there is really no good hotels in this area, so airbnb is the best way to explore it.
I was in the Bay Area to work in Oakland, but it is really easy to walk to the BART and take the train there.
Also, you have to walk up to Bernal Heights for a 360 view of SF. It is "right around the corner" but very steep :)
