My friends and I stayed here for a week on vacation and fell in love with the location of the house and how helpful Sondra (the house manager) was. The house was very comfortable and I felt as if I was at home. The house included utensils so cooking was not a problem. The house is located near the muni transportation which was a must and located near a popular college. I look forward to one day coming to this house again. A MUST SEE AND STAY AT HOUSE!!! -Matt Morgan-Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers.
Owner response: Dear Matt and Friends! Thank you for loving the house as much as we do! It was great to see how responsible a group of young people can be. We look forward to having you as our guests again! Cecelia, Bobbi and Sondra.

We loved Cecelia's home and I was instantly comfortable when we walked in. I loved the charm of the home and all the art work! I also appreciated the fact that it was a chemical free home. We were traveling with a toddler, so we did have to put some special things up high and block some areas off but it was easy enough to semi baby proof the home. Cecilia was wonderful to work with and we loved having a comfortable home to come back to after exploring the city. The neighborhood was quiet, which is just what we needed after such hectic days. Thank you for sharing your home with us we really enjoyed our time in San Francisco!Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.
Owner response: Thanks so much, Taryn! We heard from Sondra, our manager, that you were a delightful family. I was also glad that you suggested adding a portacrib to the house for younger children. We are glad to be a part of VRBO. Actually, our guests from June and the beginning part of July will be returning next year, and you are always welcome!
