The apartment was immaculate and the host, Greg, had thoughtfully stocked the refrigerator with orange juice, bagels, cream cheese and other delights. A lovely bottle of Pinot Noir was waiting for us on the table. There was coffee, sweeteners, spices-everything we could have wanted. The apartment was fully and tastefully equipped with all the appliances, utensils, dish and glassware that you could need. The bed was comfy and the towels plentiful and soft. The communication with Greg was excellent and prompt. This is a must stay location and we will be back again later this year.

I stay in San Francisco twice a year for work, and this is by far the best property I've stayed in. Greg was a great host, met us in person to go over the property details, and has crafted a lovely place to stay in the city. I really appreciated all the little details that elevated this property above others. The view from the deck is amazing, and my only regret for the trip is that I couldn't spend more time up there.

Gregory’s apartment was spotlessly clean and exceptionally well-equipped. The roof terrace was a fantastic addition to watch the sunsets over the Golden Gate Bridge. Lovely little grocery shop nearby too. You definitely get the full SF experience as the cable car runs right outside the apartment - so much so that sometimes you feel as though you are on the street! Full SF vibes but maybe not the quietest stay if you have little children as the winding mechanism goes continually (apart from about 6 hrs at night). That being said we were extremely comfortable and very much enjoyed our stay.
