I loved staying at the Noe Valley Garden Suite! The hosts were very accommodating & friendly. The unit was immaculately clean, spacious, and extremely comfortable. It’s located in a safe, quiet neighborhood and is walking distance to grocery stores, cute cafes, coffee shops, and all the wonderful restaurants & stores in the Noe Valley downtown area. Highly recommend!

Lovely and comfortable Noe Valley Suite

Roberto and Sela’s garden suite was a fantastic place to stay. It was cute, clean, and comfortable, and had everything we needed for the week, including a well appointed kitchenette. We loved the backyard space, too. Transportation via the J train was easy. Sela was kind, responsive, and accommodating with late checkout requests. We would definitely recommend!

Great Noe Valley location

This place was a very pleasant retreat for us as we attended to family matters. Easy walking distance to coffee shops, restaurants, public transportation, and for general enjoyment. Perfect size for 2 people, comfortable furnishings, and a quiet location. The owner, Sela, was easily accessible for any communications. Would highly recommend this charming spot!

Safe convenient location

Stayed here on our honeymoon. Sela was very responsive to our requests and questions. It was about 20 minutes by taxi from the airport. Great little garden apartment with private access. A couple of blocks from the vibrant "village" centre with shops, cafes and restaurants. Public transport nearby.superpupubliptransport.

Great location, spotless, and comfy

Sela's place had everything we needed for a comfortable stay in the city. A little bit of noise from upstairs that woke us a few times but otherwise very quiet. The bedroom was dark, cool, and the bed was excellent to sleep on. Parking was never a problem. Would highly recommend.

Clean, cozy home away from home

This is probably the cleanest rental we’ve ever stayed in which was very much appreciated! Check in and out was super easy. The kitchen wasn’t pictured so we didn’t know what to expect, but it had everything we needed to cook some simple meals during our 6 day stay. Loved the cute produce market and meat market 2 blocks away. Minor cons: The walls are very thin and steps from the people upstairs woke me up the first night. I’m a light sleeper so I just sleep with earplugs. My partner was unbothered. Also the kitchen plates are too large to fit in the microwave haha. Overall we would recommend this place if you’re looking for something clean and cozy and don’t need anything fancy.

Clean, well-appointed space. Responsive host. Only issue was a bit of overhead noise from residents above us. Guessing walls are thin and perhaps little ones visiting but there was a lot of running, jumping, banging of things, small ones shouting (though they were clearly having a great time!). Just a challenge if one needed a midday nap. Design of space was very nice. Definitely worked for our purposes.

Lovely Garden Apt

We really enjoyed staying in the Garden Suite. Sela was very friendly and responsive/great communicator. For us the location was perfect. They suite has everything you could need and more. They really thought of all the details. Plenty of clean towels, enjoyable bath wash, q-tips, etc…. Bed is super comfortable and the curtains are great to block out any light. Love the decor and also love the heater in the bathroom. Will definitely stay in the garden suite again when back in SF.

Clean, well-furnished excellent home!

One of the best VRBO properties that we have ever rented. Very clean and well-kept apartment with lots of thoughtful touches by the host, like lots of hangers, nice soap, shampoo, conditioner in shower, and a kitchen with every basic need met. Comfortable furnishings, including the bed and couch. Great water pressure in shower, which always makes me happy. TV and Wi-Fi worked great. Communication with the Host was fantastic and very prompt. Had several unexpected needs come up during our 12 day stay, and the Host was a champ. Location was safe and great, and very close to good public transportation. Thanks to the Host for a fantastic stay! Hope to use this VRBO home again when we return to San Francisco!

Good Noe Valley Location

The unit is nicely appointed/decorated inside. It was clean and easy to be in. Owner was easy to communicate with and helpful.However, the lock system on outer and inner doors was cumbersome and difficult to manage. Also, location of unit requires walking through owner’s garage first. The kitchen appliances, such as microwave, stove, coffee, maker, etc. were very old. Owner also asks the guest to strip the beds, collect the used towels and linens, and throw out their garbage before leaving. Given price and cleaning fee, this felt unnecessary.
