I stayed in Karen's 2 bedroom apartment for 2 weeks while visiting family in the area. The apartment is exactly as advertised. it is clean, comfortable, and well suited for a short or long-term visit. The living room is sunny, warm, and inviting. It was amazing to sit in the large, comfy arm chair and look out at the beautiful lemon tree in the front yard. Both bedrooms are large with very comfortable beds. The bathroom with washer/ dryer and the fully equipped kitchen makes it perfect for an extended stay. There is central heating as well as lots of space heaters for chilly SF mornings. Karen was immediately responsive when I needed an extra blanket and extension cord. The NOPA location is really convenient with tons of restaurants, a short walk to Lucky supermarket and a little longer to a gorgeous Trader Joe. There is easy access to public transportation to get all over SF. ( For example,
2 minute walk and 20 minute bus ride straight into downtown SF). No need for a car. I visit SF every year for about 2 weeks to get away from east coast winter. Karen's apartment had everything I needed to make this annual visit great. I plan to be back.
