I had a great time staying at George's place at The Castro. What a gem of a place with a convenient location close enough to the crazy night life but far enough that you can actually sleep at night. The view was stunning. And his cat is the sweetest. Apart from the occasionally loud speaking (not rowdy though) pedestrians passing through the quiet street, I had a good night's rest all throughout my stay. Room was spacious and the bed was super comfortable. One thing to take note that I didn't expect but wasn't a huge deal in the end was going up a steep hill to his street coming from the main strip. It's not for beginners- lol but so is the rest of SF!
George is also very easy to contact for any issues and helpful with questions/suggestions. He also gives you all the space and privacy you need and offers whatever he can (coffee, drinks, etc) on the occasion that we meet inside the apartment. He was gracious enough to let me store my luggage in his apartment on my last day in the city after I checked out while I killed time waiting for my red eye flight at night. Thank you again George for being an awesome host! I would definitely stay again if I was ever back in your city.
