This place has a TERRIFIC host who is very easy to contact. I would feel confident staying here again--we had a good time and were comfortable. The apartment is nicely decorated and has a simply GEORGEOUS view of the bay bridge, coit hill, the bay with ships passing, and is particularly exciting (and romantic) at night with everything twinkling in the distance. Furniture and beds all in good condition and very comfortable. It is definitely a GREAT location in a lively, interesting neighbourhood. If you don't mind hills, it's highly walkable to many neighbourhoods and also an easy walk down to Fisherman's Warf at Pier 39 (15-20 min)--and if hills are not your thing--cable cars and bus routes are nearby. We felt safe walking the neighbourhood and taking public transportation. The apartment is fairly well-supplied for making meals at home (so easy and cheap to do with all the fresh Chinatown produce nearby) though you should check the cupboards before buying to make sure you have what you need to cook at home. It might not even matter though with so many great restaurants so close--there will be many temptations for takeout!! We followed the host's recommendations for restaurants in Chinatown and were really happy as they were all great. The lock entry is a bit fussy--make sure you read the house manual carefully (the instructions are clear but you have to be patient). There is also laundry available (washer in unit), and fast inexpensive washer/dryer combo just down the hall--which is essential for someone like me who packs ultra-light. Basically, if you are feeling conflicted and confused with choices about where to stay in San Fransisco, STAY HERE. It was a very good Airbnb experience!
