Great apartment, great neighborhood
This property was located in a lovely, quiet neighborhood. It was an easy walk to some awesome restaurants. Howard gave us a great welcome packet with suggestions for neighborhood spots and a map to make it easier. The central location was a great home base for exploring San Francisco.

Comfortable and quiet
This was my second stay here because the location is fabulous near great restaurants and the USF Koret Recreation Center with a beautiful Olympic size pool I swam at every day ($27 or $22 senior day use). Parking is available in Howard's garage. Exceptionally quiet neighborhood and apartment.

Cute and quirky decorations. The longer I stayed, the more I liked it there. Clean and everything I needed. I enjoyed the back garden as well. You will need to bring your own shampoo and soap and coffee.

amazing time in SF at Howard's
Me and my friend used Howard's place as our home base in SF for a week and it was great! Howard gave us some excellent recommendations for food etc in the neighbourhood and turns out his place is just 5 mins away from the best croissants in the city! Easy to bus to downtown too, and we presidio and golden gate parks were super close! Kitchenette was a bit small but very well-stocked and we totally managed. Overall great experience!

A comfortable stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and the apartment was as described in the advert, with a variety of teas and coffee in the kitchen along with some chocolate! The location was a perfect peaceful haven after the bustle of sight seeing, with easy access to bus routes. The bed was extremely comfortable. Our host, who we met on arrival, was most welcoming, suggesting places to visit as well as providing a locally drawn map with recommendations for eating out. We would be very happy to stay again when we are in the area.
