Stay High Above the Rooftops of San Francisco’s Noe Valley

$950.00 weekly, 1 Week minimum stay, $2500.00 monthly., Sleeps 2. Unfortunately, I am not able to accommodate children. San Francisco has two (2) taxes that I have to collect from guests. A Transient Occupation Tax or TOT (14%), also known at the hotel tax for short-term rentals. I agree, it's a bummer.

You'll love this sunny, cozy rooftop studio like room in the quiet San Francisco neighborhood of Noe Valley (even though there is a fire station down the block). You will have a panoramic view all the way from Twin Peaks to the San Francisco Bay. Today, Noe Valley is one of San Francisco’s most desirable residential areas full of Victorian homes, shops, restaurants and easy public transportation access, all in one of the sunniest parts of The City.

Watch the fog hover over Twin Peaks as you have your morning coffee as the warm sun shines through your windows on three sides of the room. Accommodations include a warm comfortable bed, cable TV and wireless Internet access. You will also find a half-bath with a beautifully tiled shower, wet-bar with large sink and small refrigerator. You will be provided with dishware, pans, and utensils to make simple meals with the microwave, electric burner, and toaster oven. Linen and towels are provided.

This beautiful rooftop hideaway has a separate entrance through a side passageway and up a back staircase. Must be able to negotiate stairs since access is up a circular staircase of 43 steps that are unfortunately not very child-friendly.

You will be in walking distance to restaurants and Noe Valley’s 24th Street shops. You can also catch the J-Church MUNI line just a block away that will give you direct access not only to the Noe Valley, Castro, and Dolores Park Neighborhoods, but also to downtown for the Cable Cars, Union Square, and the Embarcadero. BART is just a short 10-minute walk away.

Parking is on the street if you have a car, though you must be careful about parking and street cleaning restrictions during the week which goes for all of San Francisco. A washer and dryer are available on the premises as well as a cozy small deck on the ground level.

Please let me know where you are coming from if you are interested in my rooftop sunroof.

Best views in the neighbourhood
This apartment was clean, comfortable and provided us with spectacular views of the surrounding hills, even better than the photos. The booking process was easy and our host was very helpful and responsive from pre booking through to checking out.

Totally amazing the views are breathtaking
Dana was a very considerate and accommodating host. The space is very cute - compact but spacious and has everything you could need. There was even a great coffee maker, and the kitchen & bathroom were stocked with a few nice bonuses to make the stay that much more comfy. It has a homely feel when you step into it the bed is a really comfy bed. The place is very central to downtown and public transport. Will definitely recommend to others and hope to be back again. It's completly private and the stairs were no bother at all. Dana provided lots of advice/tips on Sanfrancisco which saved us time very accurate A+. Thanks heaps

the magic aerie
each time I arrived to this rooftop aerie, whether day or nite I was newly amazed by the sky panoply, changing weather and graceful neighborhoods whether twinkling at night, bathing in Spring sunlight or appearing and disappearing in passing rain clouds or gentle foggy mists.

Relax in San Francisco with a Private View
Perfect location for a single or couple. Private, comfortable, and a fantastic view of San Francisco from a rooftop apt in the Noe Valley District. Easy access to the downtown and North Sides of the city. And wonderful friendly hosts that attend to all needs. I stayed three weeks and loved it.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week here The view is spectacular, both during the day, and at night, when you get to see all the lights of the city below you. Dana was exceptional helpful, giving us numerous tips about the neighborhood, and public transportation. The studio space is very clean and well-equipped. We really enjoyed Noe Valley, which is a thriving and charming neighborhood. We would definitely stay here again!

Les points positifs : La vue De nombreuses vitres Four de cuisine Calme le quartier est agréable Accueil du propriétaire (mais manque de communications par la suite) Pas très loin d'un tram Les points à améliorer : Le studio vraiment petit pour rester plus de 3/4 jours. Environ 17m2 Pas de lavabo dans la salle de bain, c'est une douche et un WC dans la même pièce. L'isolation des vitres n'est pas bonne, le froid rentre facilement pendant la nuit, et on sent avec la main et dans le cou les courants d'air près des fenêtres, et comme il y a de grandes fenêtres sur chaque mur le lit est forcément contre une baie vitrée. Le chauffage ventilé fonctionne bien mais très bruyant, pas possible de dormir avec. Donc la température baisse fortement la nuit en hiver. L'immeuble est en colocation, La machine à laver est dans un garage commun qui n'est pas en accès libre. Il faut contacter le propriétaire pour faire des lessives et la fois ou nous l'avons fait il n'y a pas eu de réponses. Par contre au moment de partir très disponible et réactif pour vouloir être présent... Dommage Pas de plaque de cuisson intégrer donc il faut poser la plaque mobile quelque part lorsque l'on veut l'utiliser, et comme l'espace n'est pas grand (environ 17 m2) c'est souvent pris par d'autre choses. Quelques portes serviettes et crochets pas très bien fixés dans la salle de bain. Donc bilan un peu cher pour ce constat.

Perfect; beautiful place to stay.
I could not ask for anything better. Dana, the host, was kind, attentive, and polite. He only responded to my questions; I was left in peace. It is a very safe neighborhood for a single woman (as well as all people). Delicious views. So much sunshine and light! I read reviews before booking that mentioned needing an eye mask, but I actually liked the sun and then, at night, the sparkling lights of the surrounding neighborhoods. I could watch planes take off from SFO, and I could see the water and ships in the Bay, as well as the fog rolling over Twin Peaks. It was mesmerizing.

Great Location, Noe Valley San Fransisco
From when we landed and contacted Dana, the stay itself, and leaving this was a fantastic place. Upon arrival Dana carried our bags up the stairs, and wouldn't take no for an answer, the room had everything we needed, the view was as pictured. Dolores Heights in the Noe valley was the best choice we could of made.Would gladly go back there and give it and Dana the highest recommendation we can, our 11 night stay was fantastic, thankyou, from us in New Zealand.

Perfect Home-Base
We had an excellent stay here. It was a perfect home-base for exploring San Fransisco with easy access to public transportation. Noe Valley is a wonderful neighbourhood that has it's own main street (24th street) with many shops, cafes and restaurants. The neighbourhood quiets down in the evening, but there is plenty of night life close by in the Mission district. Dana was an excellent host, who helped us get navigated in the city and waited up for our very delayed flight upon arrival. He was available when needed and unobtrusive when not. We would definitely stay here again. Heed the stairs warning...but if you're exploring San Fransisco hills and stairs are par for the course!

Perfect Summer Stay!
I stayed in this property during my summer internship in SF, and it was absolutely perfect for me. The property is within walking distance of 24th St. in Noe Valley, Valencia St. and Dolores Park in the Mission, and Cortland Ave. in Bernal Heights. It also has easy access to public transit (J-Church and BART) to get anywhere else in the city. The views from the apartment are beautiful, and having access to laundry in the building was great. You need to be comfortable walking up steep stairs (it does not get easier, but it's a great workout). Don't let that deter you! You could not ask for a better home base. While you are staying, make sure to check out Chloe's Cafe around the corner for brunch and pick up a burrito in the Mission to have a picnic at Dolores Park. Thanks for having me this summer!!

Quaint and cozy home away from home!
A delightful private aerie with citywide views, so efficiently and thoughtfully furnished with every amenity you might need. We stayed here for 9 days and wish it could have been longer. Dana is a charming host who has thought of your every need and comfort while in your home away from home. He turns the check-in process into a personal meet and greet which is so rare in these fast paced times, and is only a text away for any further assistance. The stairs at first seem daunting, but turn into a pleasant daily exercise, adding to the charm of this wonderful find in a lovely neighborhood. This is all set in a friendly pocket of Noe Valley, where restaurants, cafes, shops, grocery stores, and public transportation stops are within a short walking distance. Thank you, Dana, for a memorable stay. We will be back!

Dana provided all the information needed to get around and find things to do. He was very accommodating. His place is clean and comfortable. I love the neighborhood and the restaurants around Noe Valley are great. As others have pointed out, it doesn't take long to get downtown or to connections to other places. I will say however, if you have trouble sleeping with light, you may want to bring a sleeping mask. There are three huge windows with light shades, thus the "rooftop sunroom" name.

Excellent séjour
Le séjour chez Dana a été un délice. Tout d'abord, l'accueil fait par Dana est parfait. Il nous a contacté en amont de notre arrivé afin d'informer sur les différentes méthodes pour se rendre à son domicile. C'est très bien expliqué et ça facilite grandement l'arrivée à l'aéroport. Ensuite, il nous a informé des différents lieux à voir dans la ville lors du bref état des lieux d'entré. Par la suite, l'autonomie est total. Le studio en rooftop est parfait. La vue est vraiment sympa et la localisation à proximité du métro (=tramway) permet de se déplacer rapidement partout dans la ville. Lieu propre et fonctionnel, je recommande vivement l'hôte et le lieu.

Quaint Studio above the rooftops.
The studio was exactly as advertised. It was very clean and had everything you could need for a short stay and Dana the host is charming. Dana provides you with; maps, tourist brochures, travel guides, and a binder with useful information about using the public transit. Host also provides tips on local restaurants, and shopping. The laundry in the basement is very handy, and you are provided laundry soap. The check-in process went quick, and yes he does insist on carrying your heavy suitcase up the 43 step spiral staircase. The stairs just help you get your leg muscles in shape for walking the hills of San Francisco. Would definitely stay here again, the neighbourhood is quite safe to walk around at night, and the local restaurants are just blocks away.

Melhor opção econômica em San Francisco
Uma das melhores temporadas de férias que já passei! O estúdio de cobertura do Dana consegue ser ainda melhor do que se espera vendo o anúncio. Espaço amplo, arejado e bem iluminado, com ampla vista de Noe Valley e bairros adjacentes, inclusive dos Twin Peaks. O colchão é excelente! Roupas de cama e banho trocadas toda semana. Limpeza nota 10. Dana é um anfitrião muito acolhedor e comunicativo. Deixa o hóspede à vontade e está sempre disponível. A única coisa ruim foi ter tido de ir embora!

What makes this property unique

San Francisco is a city of neighborhoods and Noe Valley is one of the nicest. It is in a part of The City that the sun shines brightly when much of the rest of San Francisco is in the Fog. It is a neighborhood where you walk!

Walk in any direction and you will find a coffee shop where you can sit and relax enjoying your tea or coffee.
