Fir seems like great guy and the place is very nice on and was mostly clean on the inside.
One thing I want to warn other users about though that I didn’t see in other reviews is that the area (walking away from Balboa park) is somewhat seedy and when my partner and I went to the CVS right across the street there was a pretty intimidating unwashed guy standing there there that had like thròwn up or spilled something and was staring us down infront of the door and that was pretty sketch. That CVS definitely has a security guard inside by the door at night for a reason. We had one other encounter kind of like this.
This is pretty standard in most big cities unfortunately and is absolutely not the hosts fault at all and I have to reiterate that Fir was a great host. That being said I feel like the listing should probably say something like “this area has some characters out at night and you want to stick towards balboa park and not go into the city towards CVS” as a warning to people who don’t know the area.
