Hello all! I am a travel nurse that has been staying in Tina's place for the last few months.
WOW!
I can't say enough good things about my experience here. To start- communicating with Tina has been a breeze! She is the best land lady and I am so thankful for her. She went out of her way to help with getting me a temporary residential parking permit, even before I moved to SF. She also worked with me in many another ways to make the transition of moving out to SF for work a piece of cake! Thank you Tina!!!
Secondly- the flat! It sits in a great location in the middle of SF between Haight Street (which has tons of cute boutiques, yummy places to eat and grab drinks) and Cole Valley (adorable little area with local markets, great restaurants, MUNI stop). Golden Gate park is only about 0.3mi away. Whole Foods 0.2mi away. I honestly have only driven like an hour a week, everywhere I need to run errands is basically in walking distance!
The furnishings in the flat are up to date, comfortable and welcoming. The natural sunlight just gives a nice light and happy feeling when I am spending time at home during the day. The bed is a murphy bed, which worried me at first! But it's SO comfortable! It seems to be a tempurpedic or similar. And a major plus to be able to lift the bed up (I use the open space with the bed up to work out). I also appreciate the pocket doors in between the bedroom and living room for privacy. I was able to have my brother/SIL stay on the bed while I slept on the sofa and we each had our own space.
The kitchen has all up to date appliances (gas stove/stovetop is a MAJOR plus!). Also, Tina has the kitchen fully stocked with cookware, dishwater, tupperware, anything you could want and more! She also just installed a microwave over the stove right before I moved in, which has been great to have available.
Lastly- the bathroom. The clawfoot tub is beautiful and great to soak in, water is hot, plenty of space to set your essentials out. Yet another space that is bright, welcoming, and refreshing. And very much so a nicely sized bathroom!
Also- Washer and dryer! It is shared with the other tenants but I found that it is infrequently used. There have only been a couple times in the last couple months I had wanted to use it and it was already in use. Major plus!!
Tina's place has been everything I could want and more. Truly a great find and reasonable price for the SF area. I'm so thankful to have stumbled upon this place!
