Great apartment in a perfect location!
Review Submitted: October 13, 2011
Date of Stay: September 2011
We had a 5 day stay in this great apartment in September 2011. We were a group of 7, including our 2 kids under 3 years old, and our our parents in their late 60's. The apartment was really spacious and was able to accommodate all of us quite comfortably (including a great open plan living area, which allowed the kids lots of space to play).
The kitchen was well stocked with all the cooking essentials, and all the linens and towels etc were hotel quality. I especially loved the bed!!!!!!! So comfortable....and I personally liked the lack of windows in the downstairs room, as it was nice and dark and enabled a few sleep-ins, even the baby slept in!
The apartment was central to everything, yet out of the tourist areas, so we really felt like we were living in San Francisco like a local. A beautiful neighbourhood, and easy to take the bus or cable car, which both stop either right outside or within a block or 2 of the apartment. Our boys had a great time waving goodnight to all the tourists on the cable car each night from the front door!
If you have kids, the apartment can supply a pack n play (baby cot) and an air mattress if required. There is also a lovely playground and little park (where all the neighbourhood dogs gather) a short, but steep, walk up the top of the hill a few blocks. We took the kids there every afternoon and they had a great time meeting new friends, both the 2 and 4 legged variety!
If you feel like eating out, there is a cafe 1 block away (open during the daytime), a pizza place a few blocks away, and of course lots of restaurants in Chinatown, which is only a 5 min walk away.
Melissa and Nick were extremely helpful in allowing us to drop our luggage off early, and quickly resolved a couple of issues we had with trying to work out the hot water taps during our stay. We would totally recommend this apartment to others, and would certainly stay here again if we are ever lucky enough to come back to San Francisco.
