My friend Carlee and I loved staying at Dana's place. Like other reviews, I almost hesitate to tell you what a fantastic stay we had so that I can be sure to stay here again in the future ;) I've never had such a warm and informative welcome at an AirBnB! Even in her initial messages to us when we booked, helped us ensure that we had everything we needed to take advantage of the public transportation when we got off the plane. When we arrived she helped us figure out the best bus and BART routes to take to our destinations which really helped make our trip go smoothly. Although we had some things planned, we still had wiggle room to explore and we loved that she shared with us her favorite day trips, museums, and locations and it really helped enhance our trip. It was so nice to be within walking easy distance of the BART station and we never felt the need to have a car. Dana had truly thought of everything and was generous in letting us use some shared spaces, we were so grateful to be able to do a load of laundry and have extra space for our luggage. Everything was so clean and organized. We didn't have many questions after she showed us around but the few times we did there was a nice note or label to help us, and she was ever so generous and quickly answered our calls and messages when we had some questions. We were also so pleasantly surprised to find the fridge well stocked with breakfast things, fresh produce, and wine. There were plenty of things for breakfasts and snacks which was such a nice touch and we were grateful since our first morning was an early one. We were so surprised and grateful to find after our first day adventuring to find fresh brownies waiting for us and then again later on our trip freshly sliced watermelon. We took advantage more than we thought of the kitchenette and dining areas as it was so nice to get food on our way back in and eat it at her place so that we could have a more relaxing evening, plus everything was so organized and the microwave so fancy it was so easy to take out and then put our feet up, drink some wine, and enjoy good food. Our beds were so comfortable and the pillows very plush, and we loved the little touch of each of us having cute plush animal friends to greet us. We were amazed at how quiet and safe the area was, we felt confident the first late afternoon walking to the grocery store and getting some amazing local take-out for dinner. Going to sleep was a joy with basically the only noise being the gentle sound of the wind. The bathroom had lots of amenities and we had plenty of towels. It was so nice the first day to be able to take a hot shower right away even though we hadn't packed any shampoo or soap. Dana was such a thoughtful and kind host. We had so much fun chatting with her throughout our trip and learning of her fascinating past. She truly inspired us both to really get out and explore San Fransisco and to keep traveling and exploring. We had an amazing trip thanks to such a comfortable and safe place to stay and with Dana's insider local knoweldge we had such an easy time finding our way around and planning things to do on our vacation.
