I stayed here for 3 months while I was interning down in Soma. Tom is an excellent host. He is caring, accommodating, and a lot of fun to talk to. He'll tell you all about San Francisco and the good spots to go. I told him I liked mountain biking and he brought out maps for me to look at!

The place is beautiful, and has the best view of the mission/twin peaks out both bedroom windows. Compared to some things I've seen in the mission/soma, this place is absolutely filled with light. The place is also incredibly clean!

It is an older house, so noise does travel. I'm a more noise sensitive person, so this was bothersome for me. When I brought up some issues to Tom, however, he was accommodating. There were renovations going on in the house while I was there, so it was tough to work from home during the weekdays/weekends.

It's also on the top of Potrero Hill. I found myself out of breath at times coming up the hill, and definitely couldn't do it on a bike. Note, however, that you can see the east bay from some of the intersections (!!!), it's in a safe area and it's near good parks.
