Reviews From Guests

• 

  Meagan

  Ivan and Wendy are warm and delightful hosts with one sweetheart of a little dog, Milo. Their home is truly representative of their love of travel and San Francisco, and the great pride they take in their happening and "full-of-history" neighborhood, the Mission. An added bonus is the stacks of fantastic and quality fiction literature available for guest perusal. Loved this. The guest room was spotless, quiet, and sunny in the morning. The bed was comfy, and the room had great Wifi... More »

  Wendy and Ivan are the perfect host and a great advocat for Airbnb. Great location and 5 star experience at a fraction of the cost.

  Heather

  Ivan and Wendy were wonderful hosts - very communicative before I arrived and so easy to talk to and get along with. They went out of their way to be accommodating (thanks!). Their place is absolutely gorgeous and in a perfect location (and the bathtub is to die for). I'd recommend staying here any time and hope to again!

  Amanda

  A great stay in a lovely home and just the perfect neighborhood. I was only there for a short time for business, but Ivan and Wendy were extremely gracious and helpful when I saw them. I hope to come back!

  I decided to give airbnb a try for new years weekend in SF. This was my first experience with the site and I wasn't sure what to expect. I was not disappointed at all! Ivan and Wendy were great hosts who truly made me feel welcome in their terrific home. Comfortable room, great location, nice and interesting people, fresh coffee in the morning...what more could one ask for?

  Nick

  It's a guest room in Ivan & Wendy's very swanky townhouse. Clean and bright with a nice large bed, we really enjoyed the two days we spent there. If you stay with them, don't forget to ask about bakery Tartine!

  Samantha

  My girlfriend and I spent two nights with Ivan and Wendy as part our our trip to the west coast. We stayed with a friend in LA before and the W hotel after. Since this was or first air bnb stay we were not sure what to expect. Turned out to be awesome. Wendy and Ivan's spot is a great location and easly accesible via public transportation. They offered us use of the common space and kitchen and even let us do a load of laundry. The bed and linens were soft and comfortable. The room was cute... More »

  I enjoyed my stay at the place of Ivan and Wendy. The room is comfortable, with a private bath and you can use the kitchen. I felt at home far away from home, exactly as airbnb should be....Ivan and Wendy are very nice and fun to talk with. The location is great, about 10 minutes walking distance from 2 bart stations. Recommended !

  had to cancel my trip at the last moment so i did not get to meet ivan and wendy, however they were very easy to deal with on the phone and seemed like nice folks.

  Louise

  After a month on the road Ivan and Wendys haven was utter luxury!! Our hosts did everything in their power to make our stay the memorable highlight it was. We cant rate the stay highly enough. Thanks for the great coffee and fun day at the park.

  Cristina

  Wendy and Ivan have been my first airbnb hosts, and boy did they set the bar high! In a nutshell, they're the kind of people that remind you of all that's good about humankind. They are warm, kind and easygoing, and went beyond the call of duty to help me out, give me the recommendations I needed and make me feel comfortable. I also had the pleasure of hanging-out with them and enjoyed the great conversations we shared! Their place is every bit as nice as in the pictures, and ideally... More »

  Kate + daniel

  Our stay at Ivan and Wendy's was the perfect San Francisco experience. Their house is right in the Mission just off Valencia Street which means it's close to heaps of fantastic restaurants and shops. It's also close to two BART stops which means you can get out and explore other parts of the city. Their place is just gorgeous - even better than it looks in the pictures - and we felt so comfortable, both in our room and sitting out in the kitchen or lounge room while chatting to Ivan or...

  I loved staying with Ivan & Wendy! Their home is even nicer than the pictures. It is clean, beautifully decorated, & homey with lots of natural light. The Victorian ambiance & modern touches created a memorable experience. Located within the trendy Mission, it is an ideal base for exploring the city. If you want amazing value for money, this is it!! My spacious room featured cloud-like bed & various sitting areas. My bathroom was both immaculate & charming with clawfoot tub. The icing on the...

  Ivan and Wendy are excellent hosts!! They are nice and kind. You can get advice from them on your travel plan. The BnB is exactly the same as appearing in the photos, and the bed is supper comfortable!

• 

  Clara-anne

  Ivan and Wendy have obviously had a lot of experience with houseguests. I particularly liked the idea of them printing out all the places you can eat nearby for breakie, lunch, dinner etc. It makes them stand out as BnB hosts. That kind of information is exactly what all guests look for. They offer advice when you need it. The BnB is definitely exactly the same as appearing in the photos. Excellent location as well.Their dog Milo was also very welcoming. :) They give you plenty of privacy as... More »

  Ivan and Wendy are excellent hosts!! Our stay with Ivan and Wendy was beautiful and we were very sad to leave San Fransisco. In the short time that we stayed Ivan and Wendy gave us great tips on things to do and in particular great local places to eat! I would definately stay here again!! Thanks Ivan and Wendy Steph and Matt ps. the bed is super comfortable and they have the cutest little dog Milo!

  Dan

  Beautiful house in a fantastic location. Great room & private bathroom - fantastic bed & amazing bed sheets!! Within easy walking distance of 2 BART stations and 5-10mins on the BART to any of the main tourist attractions. Mission is a great neighbourhood and there are plenty of restaurants/cafes to choose from. Wendy & Ivan are great hosts & have lots of recommendations!

• 

  Ana

  Beautiful house, great hosts, wonderful city. Highly recommended as the location is perfect for discovering a very interesting neighbourhood and is within walking distance to all the major sights.

  Sandy

  Wendy was a gracious host, (We didn't get to meet Ivan as he was out of town). Their home is cozy, clean, and comfortable. We felt right at home.

• 

  James

  This was truly an amazing experience--we are so grateful to have had the honor of staying with Wendy & Ivan. They were perfect hosts, the location is perfect for all of the bay area travels we needed to do, the flat is stunning and very, very clean. If their space is available during your stay in SF, this is the one to book!

• 

  Lizette

  Ivan and Wendy were fantastic hosts. SO helpful, welcoming and fun-loving - giving you space or company dependent on what you want. The room and private bathroom are spacious and well equipped. Mission is a wonderful area - local bars, restaurants, quick and easy walk to BART. Their little dog Milo is wonderful - he doesn't bark, jump or misbehave - great for dog lovers (me) or those not so keen (my other half). We stayed for six nights and enjoyed every moment.

  Kristen and david

  Ivan was friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome. The bed was super comfortable and everything was clean and nice just like the pictures. Thanks for a wonderful mission experience!

• 

  Emanuel

  I would rate my stay with Wendy and Ivan a five star experience. I could not have wished to have picked a better room. The house has loads of character. Super comfortable room, very clean and tidy. The bed was so amazing. Difficult to get up in the morning!!! The hosts are very friendly and Milo the dog is very sweet. The location is top; right in the middle of trendy Mission. Should you come to SF, do not hesitate to pick Wendy and Ivan as your hosts, You will not regret it. Thank you... More »

  Vanessa

  Ivan and Wendy's house is elegantly decorated and full of light. It's in one of the coolest neighborhoods of San Francisco, just walking distance from some of the best resataurant and cafés in town. We really enjoyed our stay in this spotless room with private bathroom (not en suite). Ivan and Wendy are full of energy and eager to give you any tips or advice you may need!

• 

  Heather and mike

  Ivan and Wendy are marvelous hosts and their house is fantastic. The pictures don't lie: the bathroom is beautiful, the room is clean and cozy, and the breakfast nook is a great place to have your morning coffee. Wendy and Ivan are warm and welcoming and their tips for exploring San Fransicso were very helpful. Their location in the mission is close to public transit, great restaurants and is in a very cool neighbourhood. A great place to stay!

  Milos

  We came to San Francisco for a friends' wedding over Memorial Day weekend and decided to book a room at Ivan and Wendy's house based on location and photos. We are very glad to have chosen them as our stay could not have been better. They are very friendly and flexible, Milo (their dog) is adorable, the room is sunny and quiet, the house is super clean, and the shower in the bathroom is amazing. We felt that as if we had the whole place to ourselves and we will definitely plan to stay here... More »

  Jennifer

  We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Ivan and Wendy's home. Having lived in San Francisco before, we wanted something sunny and central and their location in the Mission is just that! We were 2 blocks away from Tartine bakery, where we spent most mornings reading the paper, drinking coffee, and eating croissants soaking up the local scene. At night we were walking distance from some of the best bars and small clubs in the city. Parking was also not impossible to locate in the vicinity. ... More »

  I had an amazing stay at Ivan and Wendy's. Their house is absolutely stunning and tastefully decorated. The bedroom and bathroom are spacious and spotless. Their place is located in one of the trendiest areas of SF with great restaurants in the vicinity. Ivan and Wendy are great hosts. They made sure that I would spend a great time in SF. That was my first airbnb experience and couldn t hope for a better one. I would definitely recommend their place to friends.

  What else can I say that others haven't? Wendy and Ivan are good people, full stop! I stayed with them (and Milo - what a cutie!) for about 6 days during my vacation, and it was all I could ask for and more! Their flat is homey, clean, quiet and comfortable. After a long day of trekking throughout the City, it was wonderful to fall into that amazingly comfy bed! The flat's location is super convenient to so many great restaurants, watering holes, coffee shops, public transit, day... More »

  Joanna

  My mom and 12-year-old sister loved their stay here. Ivan was very helpful, giving them directions to and from BART. And regarding the aesthetics, my mom said that while her dream house is still mid-century modern, Ivan & Wendy's is a close second :)

  Sydnye and bill

  Ivan and Wendy are most gracious hosts. Our stay couldn't have been better. Their beautiful home will be our first choice when we return to to Mission to visit.

  Eunjean

  Thank you Ivan and Wendy for a wonderful SF trip! We couldn't have loved our room more: the perfect location, the beautiful light, the comfortable bed, the great shower! Great closet space! We were there 4 wonderful nights and would love to come back again!

  Anna

  This is my first time to San Francisco and also the first time using the Airbnb website,overall i had a great experience in SF. Ivan and Wendy were so nice to me, they're such great hosts. The room looks exact the same as they posted and i just love the bathroom!

• 

  Barbara

  My husband and I stayed at Ivan and Wendy's "Mission Sunshine" for 8 nights. It is a beautiful home in the Mission, close to the activity of Valencia St. but extremely quiet and peaceful. We wanted to be close to our daughter's abode and public transportation and good morning coffee and eats-this was entirely fulfilled here. BART is 3 blocks and MUNI is about 5 blocks. Ritual Coffee was a morning "ritual" for us, Boogaloo's is great for breakfast and Delfina on 18th may be our new favorite... More »

  Jim

  Wendy and Ivan were wonderful hosts as was Milo. They were very helpful in telling us were we should visit, how we should get there, and made excellent suggestions for local restaurants The neighbourhood was close to downtown with many restaurants nearby. Also public transit was very convenient. We would certainly like to stay with them again when in SF.

• 

  Stephanie

  What a wonderful stay! Ivan and Wendy were incredibly warm and friendly - and the room and bath set-up was R&R defined. (Super comfy bed - check. Peaceful ambience to spare - check.. Close access to everything in the Mission if you want to explore - check) Note to future stay-ers: DO try out that large clawfoot tub for a long soak at the end of the day!

• 

  Ryan

  Ivan and Wendy are wonderful hosts with a beautiful home. Staying with them is even better than staying at home :) The bed is super-comfy, and the room has a very warm and cozy feel to it. The private bath is inviting and the rain shower head is exactly what you need after a day of exploring the city. The location is convenient to all. Ivan and Wendy are very helpful and friendly! Would highly recommend and would stay with them again!

  Craig

  Charming and bright fly with equally charming and bright hosts! Also comes with the best ironing board i've ever used.

• 

  Jean

  Wendy and Ivan are wonderfully gracious hosts. Their room is exactly as pictured, only warmer and sunnier. The place is ideally located, near Bart and at the back of their lovely home, so it's nice and quiet. The bath is not only private, it (like the room) is spotless. We very much enjoyed our stay. Even though we were there for five nights, they never seemed to tire of us. And Milo is lovely - very well trained and unobtrusive or friendly, as you prefer.

• 

  David

  Ivan & Wendy's place is thoroughly comfortable. They've gone to great lengths to make the room welcoming. The huge soft bed is accompanied by an equally cozy sofa and the entire room is suffused with the fantastic San Francisco light through windows overlooking the back yard. The bathroom is elegant and spacious - and plenty of hot water! We really did feel right at home and Ivan & Wendy were very gracious with allowing us space for the weekend. It was a great way to get back to the old... More »

  Ivan and Wendy are an incredibly warm and friendly couple and their dog Milo is truly the sweetest. The house is in a great neighborhood with lots of eateries and shopping all around. It is also incredibly cute, with a gorgeous kitchen right next to the room and bath we used. We were also a huge fan of the waterfall shower head and claw foot bathtub! Every morning we woke up to a fresh pot of coffee and Ivan and Wendy gave us great recommendations on what to do and where to eat. Thank... More »

  First time using airbnb and the experience was great, the room and the people were exactly what i expected based on the info of the website. Ivan and Wendy were most friendly in the bottom line it was almost like staying with friends

  Sam

  Yes, I am writing my second review -- they were so awesome I extended my stay! Be sure to try all the food in the area - Gracias Madre has great vegan friendly mexican food nearby, of course the burritos are excellent. The most surprising bit for me was to find my favorite comfort food from India - I've lived across the U.S. and I was super shocked to see it in the Mission. Did I also mention how ridiculously walkable their location is? You can easily walk to great restaurants, Dolores... More »

  Sam

  Ivan and Wendy aren't lying about the Sunshine part of the location - pack lots of lotion and sunglasses, for when you stroll down Valencia in the morn, the sunlight will blind you. They both are truly the reason why Airbnb is cool - staying at a location that's impossible to find in a hotel and my, the gastronomically inclined will not go a moment without something to chew upon, as the food in the Mission is great. Yes, the rumors are true - Mission does indeed set the tone for the foodie... More »

  Ivan and Wendy provide the best Airbnb experience. I've stayed with them multiple times and would not hesitate to do it again if I hadn't become their neighbor. Their home is amazing; warm, safe, quiet, in a great neighborhood. This is the place to be in The Mission.

  Jace

  Ivan and Wendy were WONDERFUL! (And so was Milo.) I am an SF local and had a very unfortunate turn of events with very loud, very disruptive construction on my house during my busiest weeks of the year. Wendy and Ivan were so accommodating of my bizarre schedule and strange comings-and-goings. Their house is warm and comfortable, with a fantastic bed, cozy comforter, and a beautiful kitchen (which I never had a chance to use). The bathroom was modern and the shower was luxurious. I had...

  Very welcoming, gave helpful tips to get around the city. Great locatio, great city. Comfortable bed and beauiful home. Milo is also welcoming and friendly he is a wonderful dog. We had a fantastic stay thank you.

• 

  Larkin

  Ivan and Wendy have a beautiful home and are very nice people. I'm a film director and I needed a home location that had a modern yet timeless feel, with a sense of calm elegance. Their home was perfect. Additionally, it's a place I would stay myself whether it be for business or personal holiday. I will most definitely recommend it to family and friends that come to San Francisco. Thank you both very much! Oh, and it's very clean (always a plus).

  Sandra

  What an incredible stay! Ivan and Wendy were awesome! The bathroom was to die for, the bedroom couldn't have been more comfortable and the neighbourhood and location was so convenient. The lemon trees outside the window was an incredible way to wake up and made my morning jogs that much more bearable! Thank you for the morning coffee and the maps. Wonderful hosts and I would definitely stay again next year!!

  Thanks Ivan, Wendy and Milo for sharing your lovely home. We had a great time in SF and wish we could have stayed longer. Mission is a good location for exploring the city and your home is a supremely comfortable haven to come back to at the end of a long day out. Best wishes Mary & John

  This was my second time staying with Ivan and Wendy, and it was just as lovely as the first time! They continue to be wonderful hosts, giving privacy while at the same time being very friendly and approachable. You won't find a better deal in the heart of SF. I look forward to my stay next year!

  This was my first airbnb experience and I think I've been totally spoilt by my stay with Ivan and Wendy (and cute Milo) Their house is beautiful and immaculate, the room and private bathroom gorgeous, and that bed is quite possibly the most comfortable I've ever slept in! They are both great hosts. Very chilled, super friendly and made me feel completely at home. They're also a wealth of information regarding San Fran and the fab Mission district. The only criticism of my stay: 4... More »

  Ivan was considerate enough to send a nice, long email providing some info on local events the weekend I planned to stay. He was very quick to respond to any inquiries, and was supremely accommodating in figuring out when I could swing by to pick up keys to the place. The house itself is beautiful, and the room evoked feelings of serenity for me (with its blue and predominantly white color scheme). The bed was great, and the sheets were wonderfully soft. The location is conveniently... More »

  Wendy and Ivan have a very charming home with an excellent location. Besides the home/room being extremely clean and tastefully decorated, it comes complete with a beautiful lemon tree right next to the bedroom window! Wendy and Ivan were very flexible and didn't mind us coming back home in the wee hours of the morning.

  Staying at Ivan and Wendy's is absolutely delightful. The room is bright and clean and the bed is comfy. There is a lemon tree right outside the window and a nice nook to read in. I very much enjoyed sitting at their kitchen counter catching up on my e-mails in the evening. Ivan and Wendy (and of course, Milo!) are great hosts- I hope to return soon!

  Absolutely wonderful and gracious hosts! This was our first Airbnb experience and it proves that this is a great way to travel. Only wish we could have spent more time with Ivan, Wendy, and Milo. House was stunning -- some very cool architectural details. Pictures do not do it justice. Very safe and secure home (sometimes people are turned off by the Mission; but don't be). Bed and linens were great! Place was super clean in every regard. Milo is cute. Ivan and Wendy had great... More »

  Ian and Wendy were Ideal hosts. They have an amazingly beautiful house, and the bedroom is super cozy. I think I like the bed better than my own. They're both very friendly and helped me out with advice on things to do around town.

  We had a great time. Couldn't have been any better hosts. It was a home away from home. Very accommodating, felt like we knew them forever. And we have a new best friend - Milo. We hope we can stay there again when we return to SF. Don & Cathy May 19-24, 2010

  My girlfriend and I just stayed 3 nights in May. The bed was tremendously comfortable and the house was beautiful and comfy. It was also a great starting point for going around the city as it was so centrally located. Ivan and Wendy were great hosts. I'd definitely return and recommend you to stay with them. Say hi to Milo for us. :)

  Lars

  We stayed 3 nights at the end of April 2010 at the Mission Sunshine. The room and the house are as beautiful as they look on the pictures. Ivan, Wendy and of course Milo are wonderful hosts. We got a start in the mornings with a cup of coffee and a pleasant talk and felt like staying at home. The neighbourhood is safe and nice - don´t miss a Breakfast in Dolores Park.

  Our first experience staying in an airbnb was wonderful. Ivan and Wendy's home was sunny and inviting. They were accomodating to our needs and made us feel right at home. The Mission District has great restaurants and is a great location to explore the city. Will definetly return

• 

  Rodney

  Our only regret was that we couldn't have had a longer stay. Wendy & Ivan's home is so beautiful and comfortable, it was delight to walk into after a long day sightseeing in the beautiful city of San Francisco. Ideally located within walking distance of some fantastic resturants and close to the 16th St. BART station. Wendy & Ivan (and Milo) are wonderful hosts, friendly, helpful and welcoming but at the same time, allow you freedom to enjoy your own space.

  Sarah

  We had a fantastic stay with Wendy, Ivan and Milo. The house is beautiful and they are lovely hosts. We couldn't have hoped for a better introduction to San Francisco. They even laid on a hummingbird nest complete with two chicks in a tree in the garden, with a perfect vantage from our bedroom window - you certainly don't get that everywhere you go!

• 

  Hsien-tao

  This review comes in more than one year late. Sorry to Ivan and Wendy. The room was clean and bright with nice view. when we stayed there in last March, from our window we got to see a tiny nest of humming birds. Ivan and Wendy are great hosts. Thanks to their advice, we enjoyed some good restaurants and parks in the neighborhood. Perfect place to stay in San Francisco.

• 

  Joanna

  Ivan and Wen are great fun to talk to, and the light-filled bedroom and claw-footed bathtub were more than I could have hoped for. The photos say it all--their place is gorgeous. And I couldn't have asked for more accommodating hosts! You'd be crazy not to stay here!

  My husband & I recently spent two nights at Ivan and Wendy's beautiful home in the Mission visiting our daughter. The room was lovely and sunny and the bed very comfortable with our own bath next door. The location is perfect within walking distance of restaurants and excitement of the area. A great place to stay! Madeline & Carl

  Allen

  Bring out the superlatives! It really seldom gets much better than this.Two genuinely thoughtful and caring hosts whose home is impeccably clean and tasteful, coupled with a plush cozy bed that nurtures even the tiredest of old bones make this a wonderful place to stay.Very little has been spared to ensure that your stay is as good as can be.Thank you Ivan and Wendy for opening your home in such a delightful way... And thank you Milo for all those morning kisses.

  Nathaniel

  A++++ GRADE A SELLERS! WOULD DO BUSINESS ANYTIME! PROMPT SHIPPING - Seriously. Ivan and Wendy share no ordinary house - steps away from the mayhem and enchantment of the Mission's streets awaits a space of understated luxury, a home in which two wonderful, accommodating, friendly hosts have conceived of the smallest conveniences - luscious soaps, plush bedding, a refreshing view of a backyard filled with lemon trees (this goes a long way with us, we live in New York) - and a pup named Milo...

  My daughter and I and my little Bichon just spent five days with Ivan & Wendy. They were warm, fun, and comfortable to be with. The environment is lovely and it is close to good food and connections to interesting places. Tartines is right down the street- famous pastries. And milo is fun too.

• 

  Jenny

  We stayed at Ivan and Wendy's place for two nights while attending the Winter Fancy Food show. Its a great bedroom, bathroom, and living space in a beautiful and inspirational home. It felt like a victorian bed and breakfast located in the heart of the SF Mission. Great location that is close to good restaurants, cafes, along with quick access to the city via Bart. Plus Ivan, Wendy, and Milo are great hosts! We'll be back next time we are staying in the Bay Area.

• 

  Mary

  Stayed with Ivan and Wendy (and Milo) for six days while visiting my daughters in the Bay Area. Wonderful hosts, beautiful home, great neighborhood for walking and exploring, convenient for transit--what more can I say? This is a welcome alternative to the downtown hotels, especially for those who like to join in all the urban activity during the day and then go home to a quiet and comfortable place to rest. I will definitely be back.

• 

  Anita

  We just spent a lovely two days in San Francisco and really enjoyed staying at Ivan and Wendy's Mission neighborhood home. It is clean and comfortable just as everyone else has mentioned. This location is within blocks of some of the finest restaurants in the city. We had wonderful morning pastries from the amazing Tartin Bakery provided by Ivan. He also had some great suggestions for walking tours, dining and seeing the parts of SF tourist seldom see. We highly recommend this location.

  5 stars all around. Not being city people (understatement), Ivan and Wendy made us feel very comfortable and safe. My wife and I really enjoy our stay in SF in part due to their hospitality. Their home is very nice, clean and comfortable. We had never stayed in someones home before and I would highly recommend their home. An added perk is their dog Milo. Nothing better than to have man's best friend greet you when you come home from a long day of sightseeing. Thank you Ivan, Wendy, and... More »

  We spent four days at Ivan and Wendy's and had a lovely time. The house is beautiful and very clean, the hosts were wonderful, they knew when to give you your privacy, which is important ....we couldn't have asked for better.!!! The house is a convenient distance from the city and has easily accessible transport facilities everywhere. We had a great time staying at their place! And Dan really enjoyed Milo's company! We will recommend their place to our friends. Viorica & Dan.

  Ivan and Wendy are fantastic hosts! The extra bedroom and bathroom were just as nice as any hotel, and were made more enjoyable by their beautiful, clean house and their dog Milo! They were both great with advice on the area, and were very conversational. I recommend their place to anyone else looking to enjoy urban living at its finest in San Francisco, and I look forward to visiting them again!

  Ivan and Wendy have a very nice home...they were hospitable and we both felt at home there. Our room was incredible and immaculately clean...and the bed was very good for sleeping in a little later then normal:) I would recommend their place to anyone who wants to in the city but away from the tourists.
