I will start off by saying that I really enjoyed my time here and would stay here again but intially it seemed the first few days could have ruined my experience but eventually with quick responses from the host and just an overall cool spot downtown, turned our stay into an overall awesome experience. So I want to be brutally honest and detailed about my review because I find these things really do help. When we first arrived on the property the gate code that was provided to me did not work. Confused, I walked around the property and saw a repair man working on the sliding gate entrance for the cars and asked him if he could help me out. Turns out the code provided started with a pound sign and some numbers. I was only entering the numbers but you have to press the pound sign as well, this could have been clarified better in the initial message from the host. Finally settled in the house, We decided to go grab some dinner; In the house they leave you a clicker for the gate so cars can come and go. upon trying to leave the parking lot, the gate would not open. By this time the repair man who was working on the gate earlier was gone. Thankfully our neighbors windows were open and I was able to briefly spark up a conversation with them. They told me I had to get real close to the gate sensor for it to open. Sure enough it did. The next day it seemed like the gate issue became resolved completely and the clicker worked normally as intended from the car. Unfortunately that second day came fraught with more issues. Our Wifi did not work. I texted the host but within the hour they were able to reset the router on the premises and our wifi was back up. apart from those few incidents those first few days we had an amazing time here. little Italy, the Gaslamp Quarter, Embarcadero, and hundreds of restaurants are all waking distances, I lost like 5 lbs just walking everywhere and if you are the type inclined to walking long distances like us you can even walk to Balboa Park like we did one day. There are so many things to do and half the time we didn't even need a car to do them. There is a Ralphs on 1st Ave and G st, which is a 15 minute walk south so we were always stocked up on food and the place comes stocked with all the cooking/eating utensils you will need apart from a can opener that either we were using wrong or was broken. We were probably using it wrong but I added it as a suggestion to replace to the host. The worst thing about this place was the futon chair/bed in the living room which was the most uncomfortable thing to sit on. My poor sister had to sleep on this thing, fortunately for me I got to sleep on the really comfortable King size bed in the main bedroom, She still hasn't forgiven me for that :) Also, in terms of amenities, bring your own soap and shampoo, while they were provided, they were of budget motel quality. The street outside the house can get a bit busy, there is a Covid clinic across the street so cars were always lined up out there but it didn't bother us. The other issue I could see some people having is there are quite a bit of homeless roaming near by but that is due to the church that is located next door that seems to distribute free meals on certain days. For the most part they leave you alone. The house itself has and old world charm to it and we spent my hours on the porch sipping on coffee and just watching the world go by. the other neat thing about this place is all the neighbors were really cool and helpful and it felt like a micro community. we met some really nice people who helped us resolve the gate issue to a couple checking out while we were on the porch and wondered if we wanted their unopened carton of creamer that they didn't use during their stay and were about to throw it away, Free creamer! Overall this was a fun experience and if I were ever to stay in the downtown area again in the future I would seriously consider renting out this place again!
