Great value for money

This apartment was great all round. Good location to shops, restaurants and transport. Apartment was clean and comfortable. Not huge but for 2 people is was plenty big enough. It was great having a few staples in the kitchen cupboard like olive oil, salt etc... and kitchen was well equipped for those who like to self cater. William made himself available if there was anything we needed, but we didn't need him as everything was fine. Loved the large map of the city on the wall with all the local services, restaurants and attractions marked out!

Save me San Francisco

This apt was great, located blocks from union square, on the bus line, walk to the cable cars. If you have a car the free parking is great, we parked our bikes instead,,super safe. Living like a local for a week was great, we stayed for 6 nights, cooked all our meals in a well stocked kitchen. The pictures are accurate and the apt was super clean, onsite laundry was a real plus also. The apt is also larger than we expected, the bed is comfortable and numerous stores are right outside the front door. I loved the elevator(how stupid) but it's a real retro throw back. William is on site for anything that is needed, But that never occurred. He has maintained the place so well,,he is not needed. we would for sure stay here again and recommend it to anyone. The only way to REALLY see San Francisco is to live like one. And yes this place did save me San Francisco $$$$$, when the hotel across the street is $220 a night.

Great property- pictures are accurate and the place is spotless. Apartment has everything you need- right down to the wine opener. William has a large map on the wall showing some of the local sites and restaurants- and almost everything is in walking distance- but if you do have a car the parking is a definite plus. Public transportation takes you anywhere you want to go. Union Square is 2 blocks away along with the cable cars. Thanks Wm for a great stay!

The apartment was equipped with everything we needed, was clean and comfortable and in a fantastic location. We rented a car for part of our stay and the parking included was a plus.

We had a great stay. It was such a great location to see everything, and much more authentic than staying in a large brand hotel. Clean, comfy and very nicely decorated! Even the fold out bed was very nice to sleep on as well. Thanks for hosting us!

Special thanks to the fantastic owners! The house is very nice in a strategic position, parking included is the highlight of this apartment. You are close to everything! But again the kindness and helpfulness of the owners is unique. We will come back for sure!! Varinia and Edoardo from FLORENCE Italy

My husband and I stayed here for a few days and this studio has everything you need, including free parking. It was right in the center and William the owner is great!

My wife and I stayed here over New Years and couldn't have been more pleased. The owners went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. Very nice flat with art everywhere and within walking distance to everything. Dont miss the Dim Sum a block away! Highly recommended. Will stay here again when we return!

The location of the apartment was great. It is right next to Union Square, the cable car line and in the middle of all the expensive hotels. The apartment was clean and very spacious. We will definitely consider going back on our next trip to San Francisco.

We stayed here over Thanksgiving weekend and we really enjoyed it. William was very accomodating. Home was clean and, like others have mentioned, centrally located. The parking was a real plus! We'll be back. Thanks, William!

(Taken from Guestbook) We could not have enjoyed our stay in San Francisco anymore than we did. Your ad that states "location, location, location" could not have been more true. We were a walk away from just about everything we wanted to see. And having the ability to park our rental car was an added benefit. Thanks for having us. P.S. We both loved the bed !

(Taken from Guestbook) We enjoyed our stay. Close proximity to lots of great shopping, art galleries & public transportation! We enjoyed breakfast at Cafe Mason around the corner. Its a cute French-like Bistro that boasts California Cuisine Don't forget to get a drink at the Top of the Mark. We went at night. Beautiful !!

I stayed at this beautiful studio apartment in October 2009. The place is so cozy and welcoming. This rental is beautifully decorated with art work from the around the world, you feel like you are in an art gallery! The bed was super comfortable and the place was very clean and felt like home away from home. Having internet and cable was a nice convenience. My girlfriend and I got crepes in the morning (a block away), went shopping in union square, caught dinner at Scala's and ended the night at nightclub Swig (next door). There were so many great restaurants, shopping and nightlife around this VRBO - its in a prime location. Did I mention the valet parking in the same building - that was priceless. The owners, Bill and Ying, are an extremely warm and loving couple always asking if they can be of assistance. I will definitely be back!
