Lovely stay in high-end place in San Francisco

It’s a beautiful space with wonderful furnishings and a cute outdoor space among trees where you can grill and have lunch or dinner. It has a brand new washer and dryer, which is immensely helpful for longer-term stays. The house is well designed and lovely to stay in.

Close to airport with parking

We had a nice stay at this property. It is a private suite with parking available. It’s really close to the airport and great if you are driving or renting a car in San Francisco. There were 3 adults on our stay and I would say that is the most amount of people I would comfortably have in this suite. The check in was detailed well and George was extremely fast to answer our questions and sent check in messages to make sure we had what we needed. The space was clean and we had access to an outdoor patio which had a grill (unfortunately we didn’t have time to use). The one downside to the space was there is only a small wardrobe to use to hang/unpack your close and with 3 adults we ended up just leaving everything in our bags. Thank you for letting us use your lovely home and we had a great visit to San Francisco

Superb, fully supplied very very comfortable flat

Quiet, very roomy and sparkling clean, this flat has been designed with extreme thoughtfulness for the hard-working traveller and equally well for the visiting family. I was by myself on an exhausting business trip in S.F. It has a desk, wifi good enough for video meetings and a multi-plug charger by the bed for your phone and whatever else needs charging overnight. There are two full sized sofas, a full washer and dryer, and hot water and a coffee maker. The shower in the bathroom is perfect. The patio and table outside are charming to see tho I came in January and stayed indoors for warmth!The flat is a relaxing shade of gray with white comforter and covers on the bed so the feeling is very soothing to walk in. I must mention, that if you're a small family, George has supplied everything one could need to travel with your baby or small child. As a mom who often did, this deeply warmed my heart. And if someone forgets a toothbrush, there are a couple in the bathroom shelf, ready to save you a trip to the convenience store. Again, super thoughtful.The neighborhood is quiet; yet it's a few minutes into S.F. Big bonus: this is a safe neighborhood- so you can visit S.F. and come home to a safe quiet clean neighborhood!!!!

Great Private BnB

So clean and well equipped and a short ride from airport. The room was stocked with hotel basics + washer & dryer, detergent, chargers, pots & pans, spices, etc. It was an easy stay for 5 days! There is also a private patio with a lovely lemon tree and a grill. George checked on us and responded to any question or request promptly. We used Lyft to go into the city each day and it costs $20-30 to get in and $30-50 to get out. Public transit doesn't run to the location. We could have paid for a ride to the bus station and then gone from there, but it was a hassle and we would have had to coordinate the bus schedule for each thing. Also, do to COVID restrictions the bus and trolleys were not running as normal.

Great place central to pretty much everything that you would want to do! We explored from as far south as Carmel and as far north as Napa Valley. We were at the property for 7 nights and it was perfect! George was very responsive to any need that we had and very timely! I highly recommend this place! Cheers!

Beautiful property for families

We stayed in this property as a family of four which includes a 3 year old toddler and a three-month-old newborn. We felt completely safe and comfortable in the space. The apartment is well furnished and every amenity that travelers might need has been carefully curated for you. For example we greatly appreciated the large, new washer and dryer and liquid laundry detergent in the unit. Traveling with kids we always have so much dirty laundry and it was so nice to have fresh clothes when we repacked our suitcase at the end of our stay. We also greatly appreciated that the cottage was spotlessly clean. We have stayed in another property owned by George and even that property was spotless. There is a lovely coffee station with tea selection & hot water which is a nice touch. George was very helpful in accommodating us - he was available by phone right away whenever we needed anything and checked in on us frequently throughout our stay. We felt like we had a well-connected friend in the city who could help us if we had any trouble. The property has a lovely lemon tree which added sunshine to an already lovely vacation in California. Nothing like making freshly squeezed lemonade with the kids. It is one of my favourite memories from our vacation! The beds are very comfortable & Netflix was nice to use for kids programs. There is no stove but there is a small kitchen sink, utensils & pots and pans. There might have been a hot plate we could have used to cook something but we didnt check or need it for our purposes. We were only staying for one night anyway and we ordered pizza. The shower was nice. Check-in and check-out was a breeze and wifi had good connection which is essential for any traveler. Overall the unit is well-stocked, well maintained and we had a wonderful stay. would definitely recommend this property to anyone. The property is close to the airport on a quiet residential street. We ended up staying the next night at an inn as George's place was fully booked up and we had not reserved it ahead of time. Otherwise we would have loved to stay an extra night! The inn that we stayed at was closer to downtown activities however our car got broken into and we had things stolen. We especially appreciated George's home when that happened because when we were on his property our luggage was safe and we had no issues. Safety and cleanliness are priceless! Thank you George for sharing your beautiful home with us!

Beautiful, bright, and comfortable.

George was an amazing host and his property is simply lovely. The suite itself was bright with lots of sunlight, spacious and clean. Lots of personal touches that made us feel right at home (spare toothbrush and toothpaste, sunscreen, etc). George was easy to get a hold of and made sure all our needs were taken care of. Check in was very simple and he made sure we could drop off our bags early so we didn't have to haul them around town with us. We didn't rent a car and did public transportation/Uber most places. Next time we might get a car for simplicity sake. And certainly if we had wanted to go into San Francisco, but for our purposes (wedding in the area) the location was close enough to our destinations and public transportation easy (we did bus, Uber, and walking). Bonus: there were wonderful hiking opportunities up Sign Hill and beyond right from the door! Area to hike had such great views we did 7-8 miles two days in a row! Would definitely recommend George and his property!!!
