Ok, I know it is a little chessy, but I had to use it at some point. My husband and I rent an apartment in a big city every year for Christmas. We are never disappointed, and this year is no exception,. In fact, I have to say it is one of the best experiences we have had renting an apartment. Nick and Laurence's apaprtment is walking distance away from public transportation, the nightlife, cafes, and interesting shopping. But even though it is so close to these things, it is very quiet as it is on a residential street. You can hardly believe that minutes away there are so many activities you can do. Nick and Laurence were extremely helpful and gave us many good tips about their city. Being from the South I was amazed at the "Southern Hospitality" they gave us here on the West Coast. If you are looking for a nice place to stay during your visit to San Francisco, this is the place. Skip the big hotel chains and take a chance on this unique apartment.

One note for future renters. Although there is public parking close by - there is no need for a car!!!

Thanks Laurence and Nick for helping make our Christmas 2010 memorable!

Nick and Laurence were so helpful even in the planning stages, letting us know about parking and the neighborhood. We were traveling with dogs, and we loved how dog-friendly they and the neighborhood were, and it was great to not be in a touristy part of the city. Once we arrived, they provided us with more recommendations about the neighborhood and local parks. While it was convenient to public transportation, we did have a car, and parking in the area was very easy. Finally, we loved the studio - it was comfortable for the two of us and our two dogs. Overall, we had a great experience!

We really enjoyed our 3 day stay in this cozy basement studio while in San Francisco. The property is conveniently located in a quiet residential area of Castro, but within a walking distance to numerous restaurants, clubs and public transportation. Getting to various parts of SF was super quick and easy. Furthermore, our hosts, Nick and Laurence, were always eager to help with directions and other questions, but at the same were always mindful of our privacy. We will definitely try to stay here again when we come back.

In the UK we have a TV program called "Location, Location, Location": and this studio is indeed in the perfect location. It's in a real neighborhood, with useful shops and genuine character, but only a short walk from the MUNI lines (underground and streetcar) to the center of the city (and the beach!) as well as really great breakfasting and dining restaurants and local stores. For breakfast/brunch, though there were many options, we gravitated to Cafe Flore on the corner of Market and Noe most mornings: as a result, the kitchen didn't get the use it deserved... there are plenty of decent restaurants within walking distance and many more easily accessed via MUNI.

Our one worry before we came was a lack of storage: lo and behold there's now a large wardrobe! The bathroom was perfectly appointed and the whirlpool bath was a delight after walking in Muir Woods and at Lands End.

We brought our laptop and were delighted that the wireless internet connection functioned perfectly and without a break throughout our stay. You can connect - and stay connected - with confidence.

The apartment was spotlessly clean and, though it is small, it's beautifully appointed. The photos on the website do indeed reflect the layout and size of the property. Laurence and Nick were very helpful throughout our stay. We will try and come back again, time and work permitting, and would not hesitate to recommend it as a vacation rental.

We had a great time at Castro. The apartment is really, really nice and the location is perfect. Thanks a lot!

We stayed in this fabulous apartment for a week, whilst on a visit from Australia. A great location, just a blocks walk to a small grocery store, restuarants and public transport.
The apartment had everything we required, very clean, comfortable and private.
The owners, Nick and Laurence could'nt be more helpful and we look forward to returning again soon.
Highly recommended.

This apartment is in an ideal location with access to the F line and a bus stop very close. There are many great restaurants and shops within walking distance so it is very easy to get around without a car. It is also larger than most hotel rooms in San Francisco. Nick and Lawrence were very helpful in answering our questions both before and during our stay. We will definitely stay here the next time we are in San Francisco!

The apartment was fantastic. Beautiful, immaculate, & efficient use of a small space and so convenient to everything, only a block to the corner of Castro & Market Streets. We had such a great stay, Laurence & Nick were very gracious and helpful. I highly recommend this apartment, would like to stay here again for our next visit!
