Stay in Inner Richmond

Howard is a great host. Left us a list of nearby restaurants and services. The neighborhood was quiet and felt safe. Very walkable. I probably would not say there was a kitchen in the unit. It was more like a kitchenette. But overall we really enjoyed our stay!

Charming

It was a nice retreat after a busy day in the city. Pretty centrally located but still used an Uber to get around since we are older. Was not as close to some spots as I thought it would be but very well worth it. Felt very safe and was very quiet. A little outdated but was great for us if not looking for high class. The owner was wonderful and helpful.

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.
