My fiancé, dog, and I stayed at Scott’s place for four weeks. It was a great experience!

The inside of the unit was very clean when we arrived and decorated nicely. There was so much natural light in the unit – the pictures don’t do it justice! The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed – dishes, utensils, pans. The TV was nice – had a DVR and all the channels we could possibly want. The Wi-Fi was great as well. The unit has its own modem so it was very fast and we never had any problems. What we loved most about the unit was the modern amenities (shower, appliances, etc), washer & dryer (in unit!), and storage. The unit is small but there were two huge closets and tons of storage around the bed - plenty of space for us to store our things!

The building the unit is in was very safe – FOB access from all outdoor entries and indoor entry to the unit. The building was always clean and quiet. Another great plus, was we had our own covered parking spot. A covered parking spot is almost necessary because there are a lot of break-ins in San Francisco.

Before our trip, I didn’t know much about the neighborhoods in San Francisco. Now, if I describe Potrero Hill, I would describe it as safe, quiet, family-friendly, and very hilly with awesome views of the city. We really enjoyed the Whole Foods below the unit. It was so convenient to have it there for any forgotten groceries or to grab a quick dinner. We loved the Steep Brew restaurant that was a part of Whole Foods. We went to the ‘Happy Hour’ there a few times, where they serve dollar off wine glasses ($3 and a huge glass of wine!). Another great area of Potrero Hill is 18th Street - two blocks from the unit. There are several restaurants and coffee shops on this street. We enjoyed brunch at Plow. It also has great dinner options that aren’t crowded – Italian, French, Mediterranean, etc.

Often we would go to Market Street or Fisherman’s Wharf and we found the best way to get there was by Uber. The walk was too far, the bus takes too long, and driving and parking in these more populated areas is not always the easiest.

With bringing a dog, I was a little worried before our trip about finding her somewhere to go outside to play and potty. She adjusted quickly to small squares of grass and cement. Close by, and all uphill, was a nice park called “McKinley Square”, where dogs are allowed off leash on the trails. We also loved taking her to Mission Bay Dog Park – a short five-minute drive. It was a great dog park – clean and well kept and all the dogs were nice!

Scott was a great host. His communication was very quick and he was very easy to work with!
