Wonderful!

Cosy, clean and close to everything!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 281 Castro. The room was cosy and very tidy. We had everything we needed to be comfortable, including an extra portable bed for our young son. The place is close to all transport, shops and restaurants. Nick and Laurence left us to ourselves but were readily available if we needed them. They provided wonderful tips of things to do in SFO as well as recommended fantastic eating places. We definitely recommend 281 Castro! Thank you Nick and Laurence!
enjoyed the time there
great hosts and great accommodations...will return someday
Can't say enough good things about this place!
Private location, close to everything in San Francisco via walk or short Uber ride. Comfortable bed, plenty of space for a couple, great hosts.
This place is practical and fantastic for what I needed - The Hosts are great
I personally was cold but this is a personal issue, most people would be fine! I used the space heater and would stay again and maybe use the gas fireplace as well, I was intimidated by the "well ventilated" suggestion. The place was cozy, clean, well organized and equipped for everything that anyone would need to be comfortable in my opinion. A safe place to call home in a great area of the city with close walking distance to good restaurants, relatively good parking despite what is suggested in the information. If parking early in the day, a spot can be found overnight within walking distance to the location. All of the amenities needed are available and I loved the hot water, (hotels often skimp on this, I've gone to Japan town sometimes to get a good real soak, but not needed this trip!, thank you!). The deep soaking tub was a luxurious bonus for what appears on the surface as a "basic" living apartment. There is some noise at night, (just bus and road noise), but this is only because I live in the country that I notice this as loud to me. Compared to other areas of the city, this place is amazingly quite at night. No nightlife loud noises which was great. I stayed in the middle of the week (so I do not know what the weekend is like) but I have even been kept up at night from that in hotel or in other areas of the city with loud sounds from partying, and not here, it was wonderful. It is a only a short distance from bars/restaurants, but far enough away that people are not walking around after partaking in this. It is a perfect location. Nick was very helpful in direction on everything!
Wonderful get-away
Lawrence went above and beyond in making sure my husband and i were taken care of. The neighborhood was adorable and the house was beautifully eye-catching.
Don't miss a soak in the jet tub. It was great!
Cute studio and great location
We really enjoyed our stay in San Francisco. The Castro area is great, with a lot of restaurants and places to get good cocktails. It was also easy to get to other pets of San Francisco.
Location
Located on a Magnolia tree lined residential street just north of San Francisco's famous Castro District. This quiet residential neighborhood is safe and walkable with nice restaurants and shops. And across Market Street is the historic Castro Street theater, restaurants, bars and shops. One block away is our weekly Farmer's Market (seasonal). Located within blocks of ALL San Francisco MUNI light rail lines and the historic F line which features historic street cars from around the world and is a fantastic way to travel to Union Square, Fisherman's Wharf and more. You won't need a car! See the map - look how many parks are located nearby. Hike? Play tennis? There are a number of tennis courts nearby - play tennis surrounded by redwoods and views of the Golden Gate and San Francisco Bay. Or walk a few blocks down 16th Street to Mission Dolores which is where San Francisco was founded. VIsit the historic wooden church which still holds services in German. Dine outside and enjoy the California sun.
