Pros: The house is very spacious and we loved the neighborhood: quiet, relatively good street parking, delicious restaurants within walking distance, views of Golden Gate Bridge, and an easy walk to the museums in Golden Gate Park.
Cons: The house was filthy, in particular, the bathroom and kitchen. Hair balls on the floor (throughout the entire house really), mildewed shower curtain, dirty tub, dirty appliances, etc. The window in the bathroom didn't close which made for chilly showers. It was disconcerting to have our 9 month baby picking up and trying to eat hair balls collected around the house. My mother almost didn't shower she was so disgusted. As for the house, it was poorly represented in the listing. It is only a two bedroom. The "third" bedroom is a pull out couch in the living room, which is open to the kitchen and hallway without any privacy. We were expecting to use all three beds, but when Cindy sent us the welcome email, she told us there would be an additional charge to use the third bed. I contested and she waived the fee due to the holiday (New Years). All the beds were uncomfortable, but the pullout was atrocious. The mattress was so old there wasn't any filling left; to sit on it, it sank all the way down and into broken springs. It was like sleeping in a taco and my mother struggled to get out of it each morning. As for safely, fire alarms were few and far between and the secondary egress had rotting stairs with large pieces missing in the middle of the treads. Luckily, there was a note warning not to use them. I am not sure where the stairs led, but the window didn't latch and someone could easily unlock this door from the outside. Lastly, there were little to no basic amenities provided: half a roll of toilet paper, a few used and split bars of soap in the shower, about two squirts of soap in the bathroom, and the dish soap was just water added to an empty bottle. The house is beautiful and has a lot of potential, but we were very disappointed.
