Quiet Garden Apt., geographic center of The City

On a cul-de-sac in a good, safe, flat neighborhood in the geographic center of The City; recently, Time Out listed our hood as the 27th coolest in the world.
Guests have said: "great value"; "cozy"; "We appreciated Howard's map and list of suggested places to eat"; "comfy beds and very quiet which made for great sleeping."
Private garage.
Private entrance.
The bedroom has a queen bed. The (larger) sitting room has a single bed, which looks sort of like a sofa, as well as a real sofa. Both rooms look out at the garden. Powder-room-size bathroom with walk-in shower. WiFi. Cable TV with Netflix et al. Wood floors.
Excellent bus connections: Downtown/Beach; Marina/MIssion. Easy walk to Golden Gate Park, Laurel Village, Clement St., and to two foodie destinations: Arsicault (best croissants in the country); Arguello Market (best sandwich—turkey—in The City). Also nearby: a classic diner, many coffee shops and restaurants, post office, pharmacy, banks, FedEx, and gas station.
Please note: no stove—alcove has microwave and mini-fridge and electric kettle, Braun coffee maker, and toaster, and glasses, dishes, and utensils. BBQ in backyard.

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.

Nice garden apartment in great location
Spacious apartment near public transportation and fabulous restaurants. A short walk to a public pool and the Koret pool at USF, the best pool I've ever experienced (though a little expensive for a single day use).

Perfect Downtown Access
Stayed her a full week, comfortable spot for two grandparents and college age granddaughter! Howard is a welcoming host, providing for our needs and very accessible. Granddaughter did daily runs in Golden Gate Park and brought back amazing pastries. We tried and senjoyed several restaurant recommenations, both eating out and bringing in food. Saw all the key sites during the week, including a day in Napa Valley.

Lovely retreat in the city, but away from the hustle and bustle. The bed was comfortable, the shower was hot and there were plenty of outlets to plug in all of our tech stuff. Would happily stay at Howard's place again on our next visit to San Francisco.

Great location and kind host
We enjoyed the excellent central / private (on a dead end street) location and Howard was a great host. He was communicative, friendly, and offered nice suggestions for places to go eat. We walked to a fun farmers market and Eats restaurant nearby. I highly recommend this spot!
