Pros:
- Great location. A few minute walk away to Nob Hill restaurants and a 30 minute walk downtown. Beautiful surrounding neighborhood.
- The Airbnb was extremely spacious and more than enough room for 2 people. Extra closet space with large mirrors!
- Very beautiful touches and thoughtful decor
- Perfect wifi. We were working remotely and never had any issues with connection.
- Lots of paid street parking in front of the residence.
Cons:
- Communication with the property manager was patchy. We chatted once regarding a few issues, and after being told we could text him directly, he didn't respond.
- No free parking on premises. Entire vicinity only has four-hour paid parking (However -happily got a reimbursement for what we paid since the listing wasn't updated)
- There is no thermostat to adjust the temperature. Heating/cooling is preset by the owner upstairs, whom you have no direct communication with. I requested for the property manager to turn up the heat and cadence twice but to no avail.
- Small issues arose - Coffee machine was dirty and didn't work, but we managed to reset it; Extremely dusty vents the first few days of the stay; TV could not connect to wifi most of the time (no Netflix/Amazon Prime)
Overall, pretty good experience! Definitely worth the price for the extra space. As mentioned, some of the amenities and details were lacking - Generally this wouldn't matter if you're expecting to be out most of the day, but since we spent a lot of our time in the Airbnb, these were hard to overlook. Luckily, they happily provided a refund for the issues - so very grateful with the way they handled this.
