This home is so lovely and feels like a home away from home! I couldn't believe how wonderful the neighborhood was, and we enjoyed so many excellent eateries and local shopping. This property was so perfect that I booked it to return for my anniversary! The host was so helpful and kind - I will be visiting this property often.

Fabulous Location

West Portal is a wonderful communitythe house is in a colorful 1920’s neighborhood with trees & plants. Loved hearing the children at the school across the street with lovely birds singing their songs. The bed was comfy & there were plenty of hangers & drawers to unpack. The towels were nice & the shower was great with a rainfall head. We easily took the train into the city several times with the station being minutes away. Deb is a great communicator & a lovely host

Exceptional Stay close to UCSF

Our stay at this VRBO was exceptional. The location couldn't have been more perfect, especially for us needing proximity to UCSF. The neighborhood felt safe and welcoming, providing peace of mind throughout our stay. Of course, the comfortable beds and convenient parking were still standout features that enhanced our overall experience. But the added bonus of being within walking distance of charming shops and cafes truly made this VRBO a hidden gem. For anyone seeking a perfect blend of convenience, comfort, and local charm, this VRBO is an absolute must. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay and would eagerly return on our next visit to the area."

Nice place to stay in SF!

Unfortunately I was in San Francisco for a surgery at UCSF. I was there for one night and my family stayed on for five days. The house is very comfortable and fully equipped. It's in a great neighborhood and it has parking which is a major plus! Debra was a wonderful host. And if you are going to UCSF for any reason, it's very convenient.

Quiet and comfortable place to stay

This is a very lovely home with plenty of space. I needed a quiet and comfortable place to stay in the city for many days. The house is an older well-cared for, classic home with wood floors and accents. It is well appointed with comfortable furnishings and tasteful decorations, and comfortable beds. There are plenty of windows with lots of light and views to the hills and even the ocean and sunset when it is clear. The kitchen had everything we needed with more than enough dishes and utensils. The neighborhood is quiet and tucked away in the hills of the city, it was a great place for easy walks and always felt safe. Plenty of shops and stores in walking distance. Transportation light rail and muni is nearby in walking distance. The owner was a good and responsive communicator and very helpful to my specific needs. It was all i had hoped for. I would definitely stay here again, no hesitation at all.

Very comfortable

West Portal, where this super comfortable home is located, is a part of San Francisco that, though I'd worked in the City and visited countless times, I was unaware of. The area has everything for a base to explore the Bay Area. Walk to half a dozen good restaurants, solid public transport options, dynamic (sometimes a lotta fog) weather, and parks nearby. There's not much traffic and the neighborhood feel is authentic. The home has pretty much anything you'd need, fully equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, spacious living room and dining area. Super quiet at night. Book this home and you won't be disappointed (and I'm picky!).

Deb's property was perfect for my husband, son and me on our five-day stay in San Francisco. Close to everything but just far enough to be out of the fray, this two bedroom, one bath property was clean, comfortable and very homey. We had been traveling for several days prior so we were thrilled to have access to laundry. The owner Deb was easy to reach, pleasant and helpful. Will definitely stay again if/when we return to SF!

This was the perfect home and location for our visit to SF. It was so clean, cozy and comfortable with everything you need to feel "at home." Debra is a wonderful host and personally welcomed us which was such a bonus! It's a block away from several great restaurants in West Portal. We rented a car and parking is included-a huge plus since we didn't have to worry about street parking. It's easy to get to other parts of the city like Golden Gate Park, the Presidio, the Marina and the Golden Gate Bridge. And, SF Muni/Metro station is right there in West Portal for easy access to downtown. It's a fabulous home and our go-to for future visits!
