Genuinely spacious rental, ideal for any stay

Four of us, including two older kids found this a very good rental. The house is well equiped and we found all equipment working importantly including the wifi working in every room, as described.
The local shops and restaurants are well worth exploring in a friendly neighbourhood. We particularly enjoyed the local noodle cafe for a great inexpensive meal, and the fish restaurant at 9th and Lincoln which was expensive but fantastic. I don't even want to count the number of pancakes we ate for breakfast at M's cafe !
Access to the centre of San Francisco is easy via the tram that leaves every few minutes from 9th and Judah and costs just $2 and takes just half an hour. We visited most of the tourist spots using public transport and would strongly recommend doing so.
Alcatraz was a particular highlight and we could have done without the crush of crowds at fishermans wharf.
We hired a car and went over to see the giant Redwoods at Muir Woods, Stinson Beach and points north. We also went to Napa Valley to see round some vinyards sample the wines.
The house does have a few minor downsides, the garage door was too narrow for the car we hired but that was mentioned in the blurb. It was clean and tidy when we arrived but some of the bedding and decor are begining to show their age a little. Inner sunset also falls within the zone that can experience summer fogs, but it's always sunny inland and further down the coast.
Those caveats didn't make any difference to our holiday, we really enjoyed our stay at this in San Francisco and thorougly recommend this property.
