This apartment is brand new and was perfect for my needs. The entrance was well lit and the apartment is located at the back of the 1st level of the house making it quiet for sleeping - no small thing in the city. Located only 1 block from shops and restaurants of Cole Valley, this apartment and all the appliances, fixtures and finishes were brand new and sparkling clean. It was great to have a washer/dryer and generous lighting throughout. Margaret, the host, made herself available for any questions and was thoughtful in providing bottled water, coffee and (yum) chocolate. Public transportation into the city was only 2 blocks away.
