We had a lovely stay in Lily's beautiful home. As previous reviews have stated, Lily can compete with many hotels in terms of cleanliness, decor and facilities. She was a really nice and accommodating host too. We loved the mid century furniture and airy feel to the house. Location is great in terms of the BART and good restaurants and shops in the Mission. Hit the Monk's Kettle for beer and food and Therapy for lovely homewares. Castro is just down the street and we walked to the Haight and Golden Gate Park. Get the BART or walk up to Market to get the F streetcar. If you're looking for somewhere safe to leave your car for a day or two I'd recommend the Performing Arts Garage.
