San Francisco holiday apartment: Corona Heights

Excelente, muy acogedor las fotos estas 100% acordes a la realidad, un poco lejos de los sitios turisticos pero hay servicio publico y si tienen carro es ideal. No para mas de 5 personas e incluso 1 debe dormir en un sofa que no es sofa cama.

This apartment is everything it was cracked up to be on the website. The location is ideal. You feel you're staying in the "real" San Francisco. Marvellous neighbourhoods such as Haight Ashbury and Castro are within walking distance (or you can catch a bus), while downtown San Franciso is only a quick tram-ride away. Perfect if you don't have a car, but if you do it's easy to park in the street outside. The apartment is in a quiet street, and is comfortable and well equipped - luxurious in fact. If you like what you see, don't hesitate.

Hi all,

Well we arrived at this apartment on Friday 12 September and were thrilled with the presentation and cleanliness of the apartment. The apartment was warm and cosy and the back verandah (i.e. off the bedroom) provided stunning views of the city.

The apartment is located in the upper Market Street district. A 10 minute walk (admittedly down some steep stairs but hey, this is San Francisco) provided easy access to public transport - both the underground rail and the F series trams. We loved the trams and only used the underground rail on the last day out of curiosity.

Located within 10 minutes drive of the Golden Gate Bridge, it was a pleasant drive north to the Nappa Valley. Easy access to Highway 101 provided uncomplicated access to both the International Airport and the southern coastline of California.

The big thing that impressed us was how quiet the area was. We felt quite safe at all times.

We spent much of the time in the Downtown District and enjoyed all the usual tourist attractions (i.e. Alcatraz, Fisherman's Wharf, the Coit Tower, Lombard Street etc etc). But we also took some time out to visit the Nappa Valley (north of the city) and took a short two day trip down the Big Sur to Morro Bay (south of the city) - an absolute must if you have the time.

In short, we loved both the apartment and the City. It made a really pleasant change to actually live in the city - as opposed to holidaying in a hotel.

For those that need to stay in touch via the internet, the apartment has a wireless internet facility and we were able to simply connect our laptop to this system to access our emails.

We recommend the apartment to tourists (with or without a car), couples with no kids, or families with teanagers. If you find steep hills hard, then this apartment may not be for you unless you have a car.

Happy holidaying,

Mark and Karen (Sydney, Australia)
