Why the Owner Chose Castro
You will love the neighborhood--kids, parks, friendly people, close to everything, a sense of community--for the same reasons that we love the area.
The Unique Benefits at this Flat
I've written a number of books about how to clean a house, so you'll find that the flat is extra clean. Enjoy and let us know about your San Francisco experiences! Happy travels, Jeff Campbell

My partner and I work for our own company in the Sierra foothills community of Jackson, CA. It's not far from where gold was originally discovered in California. We plan to retire to this flat in the not-too-distant future.

We definitely hope to stay at you place in the near future and will recommend it to all of our friends and family who come to visit your fabulous city!

Wow, what a great space! It was such a pleasure to unwind after a hard day of being tourists in either your living room with fireplace to read and or chat or in the great room with that fabulous TV. The neighborhood is so pleasant and friendly, we really felt at home. We'll tell our friends and we'll be back. By the way, this was the cleanest vacation rental we've ever stayed in.
