Valentino replied quickly to texts, & I was excited by the pictures - but the place is truly remarkable. It's literally a stone's throw, less than half a block, from some of the city's most upscale hotels, perched on the side of an incredible hill. The pictures don't do it justice - it's beautiful. An old grande dame of a building. Beautiful light, clean and welcoming. Any time I travel to SF with a group again, or with family, I will stay here.
