A beautiful apartment in the heart of the Castro. You couldn't get much closer to Harvey Milk without digging him up to hang out and have a cocktail with you. Literally. That is how close it is.

Quiet upstairs apartment featuring one bedroom with separate dining room, large living room and gourmet kitchen. Huge bathroom with separate shower/bathtub.

Great views of the iconic Castro theater and SF hills, you can even glimpse the large Pride flag! Comfy queen-sized bed decked out in crisp, high-thread count linens. All decorated amazingly (by me, of course). Full kitchen with all the gourmet accoutrements one would desire. Super high speed wifi (I pay extra for more speed). The geekiest entertainment unit you've ever seen complete with flat screen TV, 5.1 surround sound, Tivo, BluRay Netflix and Apple TV. Paid laundry downstairs.

30 second walk to Market street - 30 second walk to amazing bars and restaurants! There is always action in the Castro. Gourmet market on the corner. You have every wonderful thing in the Castro on your doorstop, but the apartment and my street maintain a residential calm. That is a pretty unique combo in SF, believe you me.

Street parking only. Or rent my Smart Car through Relay Rides. Link will be provided upon booking.

You should be quiet and respectful folk. I have neighbors next door and downstairs that are lovely and hardworking who deserve a quiet evening in the safety of their homes.

BTW - this is my apartment that I live in, so the bedroom closet will not be for your use. There will also be some personal items left out like pictures. Makes it more homey that way...

PLEASE NOTE: I usually only accept bookings 2-3 months in advance, sorry if this is a pain!

ABOUT YOU

Non-smokers only!

Prefer single guest or couples. (But not single that is going out to pull trade home from the Castro...if you know what I mean.)

Please let me know what your story is and why you are visiting San Francisco so I can get a better idea of who you are.

Also, be sure to note that I only consider completed profiles with photos. Verify your social networks and number so I can be sure that you are a human being! I will also require that you have a valid form of identification when you arrive to pick up the keys (passport or drivers license) and will take a photo copy of it for security purposes.

These measures are put in place to help protect myself, my apartment and my neighbors.

Please note that there is now a 15% city of San Francisco tax charge added onto the listing price. This is due to a recent law that was put in place by the tax collector.

    Our stay at this gorgeous apartment was great. The place is fantastic and beautifully furnished. The location is also superb - you can even see the neon sign of the Castro Theatre from the window. Perfect. Thank you, Stephanie.

  • Great apartment in a great location. Stephanie's apartment is comfortable and clean and very well appointed. Great kitchen and bathroom...clean and roomy. It is close to transportation and to just about everything there is to do in the city.

  • We absolutely loved our stay at Stephanie's pad! The apartment looks just like it does in the photos. It is spacious, bright, and very well designed. The bed was super comfortable as was the couch for relaxing and watching a little TV. We loved the large windows and views of the Castro Theatre on the next street. The whole apartment has that very San Fran feel to it...this is exactly what I imagine a movie set would look like for a San Fran apartment. It has tons of character! Stephanie was very accommodating as we arrived after midnight on the first night. We will definitely book her place the next time we are in SF.

  • Everything about the stay was perfect - highly recommended. The flat is as beautiful as the pictures suggest and Stephanie is super helpful. We stayed for just over a week and felt like locals - there are plenty of public transport options just around the corner and a range of fantastic restaurants and 10 min stroll away.

  • The apartment is so nice and cosy ! Stephanie was very friendly and welcoming and gave us all the details very clearly. Great experience - highly recommended.

  • Stephanie has an absolutely great apartment – super comfortable, well-apointed, and very quiet – and I would highly recommend staying here if your travels bring you to San Francisco.

  • Stephanie has hosting via Air B&B down to a science. She provides detailed information to answer any questions you might have. Her place is in a spectacular location, is stylish and comfortable. I would certainly recommend a stay here!

  • We had a great time during our stay. It's a very spacious and comfortable apartment located about 1/2 a block from the Muni lines and bus stops. The location made it easy to get around the city and then come back to a quiet apartment each night. Everything about the stay was convenient and exceeded our expectations. We would love to stay here again.

  • We really enjoyed our stay in heart of the Castro, which is a great area. And the location of the apartment is very convenient, 1 min walk from the metro station and tramway/buses stops. The apartment is very comfortable, with all modern conveniences. Stephanie has been very kind and helpful, and she prepared a very helpful "walk-through" guide, so that we felt like at home very fast, and enjoyed our stay! We greatly recommend Stephanie's apartment, and we will definitely go back there if travel again to SF (fingers crossed)!
