This apartment is perfect for one or two people. It's so pleasant to be in. The decoration is charming and fun. Everything is modern, well put together and clean. The location is central to all the neighborhoods I need to be in (Mission, Civic Center, Union Square, Hayes Valley). Hayes Valley has A LOT of great food a block away. The bed is SUPER COMFY and the green backyard feels like a little oasis in the middle of the city. I also liked the deep bathtub, short but deep enough to be fun, like a Japanese style tub.

A fair number of indigent folks walking around the neighborhood, but none of them bothered me and I felt safe enough on the streets and very safe in the apartment.

Mario is a wonderful host. Responsive, friendly and helpful. He brought by a heater because he thought it might be cold (it wasn't). I locked my keys in the apartment and he was cheerful about letting me back in to get them. The key pickup and drop off is easy at a cafe not to far away.

I lucked out and got a parking spot in front of the apartment; I left my car there for three days without a ticket since they don't usually check Ivy Street.

I will definitely stay here again when I am in the city.
