First of all, Marin is 100% dependable. She is on the ball, keeps in touch, and wants her guests to be happy. We were very happy. Pacific Heights is not a tourist area but a lovely neighborhood with the best bakery ever...great Indian restaurant...fabulous grocery store Mollie Stone...lots of designer clothing stores...consignment shops. But the 2 and 3 buses stop right in front of the apartment and take you over to Union Square, the financial district and the Embarkadero. No need for a car . . . but if you have one, a parking space is included. The condo is spotlessly clean and can easily sleep three, four or five people. It has a little French balcony but better yet a lovely patio area for morning coffee or reading or painting . . . whatever. I would come back to Marin and 1980 in a heartbeat. We had a fabulous time here.
