41/2 stars. The location is amazing. The Value is amazing. I stayed for 2 months (Jan-Feb 2021) while working in South San Francisco. Having the parking and access to the 101 made getting to work easy. And then it was easy to walk up to the Mission and Bernal Heights for good food. Despite being in the middle of the action, the apartment was quiet and I slept really well. The backyard is lovely with a Meyer Lemon tree and a nice place to sit in the sun in the early afternoon while the city was locked down.
Check in was easy, but the apartment had not been well inspected before I arrived. The Dish network did not work. Theo quickly sent me an Amazon Fire stick to be able to watch our government dissolve into Chaos. I needed quite a few things in the kitchen, include dishes, spatulas, hot hands to take things out of the oven, salt & pepper. There were no cleaning supplies either, not even a broom or glass cleaner for the kitchen table. Many little things were missing that I would expect to be in a fully functional kitchen. Theo was very apologetic (he was in Vietnam) and made everything right--his mother dropped off dishes and he reimbursed me the cost of the cleaning supplies and other items. So in the end, I had everything I needed for a great stay in SF. The next person to stay there should have a 5 star experience! I would happily stay again.
