This was a very nice place, close to our family and the West Portal area. Loved the colorful tiles especially in the bath. The walkway to the apt was a bit narrow and slanted, maybe a consideration for older guests. We are kitty lovers and visited with the resident cat on the front porch when we awaited our Uber. Five stars for us!

Terrific mother-in-law unit in West Portal! Unique Moroccan-themed decor made for a bright, pleasant stay. Parking was a breeze--there is unrestricted parking across the street up the hill one block, which is great by SF standards. Selim and Lynda were super friendly and would absolutely recommend!

The rooms were clean; the decor eclectic (a real delight) and homey! I was reminded of other places and earlier stages of my life. The hosts were accommodating and gave excellent directions to the sites of San Francisco…which provided an enjoyable day of ‘bumbing around’.

Great

Great colorful space and inspiring mix handmade and collected items. Was super easy to get around San Francisco from without a car, being within a 5-15min walk of 6 bus and train routes. Sufficient kitchen facilities with a local grocer and Safeway nearby. Selim was also accommodating to an earlier check-in

Electic little lower apartment

All the reviews I read were spot on. Decorated with an artist and world travelers eye. Makes this a unique, welcoming vibe with lots to read. Situated in a quiet neighborhood a block from the Muni to be downtown in 15 minutes. Lots of neighborhood restaurants and shops right there too so you can stay local. Only caution I would give is the entry walk way down to the front door is very tight. I'm 6'6" and had to squeeze and scrape my way through even with out luggage. Also the steps are prone to be slippery so be aware.Otherwise, I enjoyed my stay immensely and would do it again.

Easy drive to UCSF

I was staying here because I needed to be at the UCSF hospital with my husband who has an aggressive cancer. These were very hard times for me, I left the apartment early and came home late. Under different circumstances I may have enjoyed the apartment more. The one thing I would have improved on was the ability to cook. There is a hot plate but I had trouble with the smoke alarm going off, even using the toaster, so my late dinners consisted of reheating in the microwave.

5 night stay

Wonderful location with easy walking distance to numerous high end food and beverage locations. The unit has a separate entrance within the home but is very private and quiet. A bit cluttered for our taste but other may find it eclectic and interesting. Owner very responsive and was willing to research parking questions as the neighborhood has typical San Francisco restrictions on hours and days.

Wonderful Home

My daughter and I stayed for five nights at Selim and Lynda's wonderful apartment in the woods. It was a great refuge, quiet and secluded, yet surprisingly just minutes to any destination in the city. The careful and loving attention to detail that Lynda poured into every corner of the home was so appreciated. The family was welcoming and attentive to our needs. Parking was easy. I highly recommend!
