Matthew and Sayuri's place is great! It's a bit of a walk down to the central part of the city or the waterfront (not too far, just steep hills), but it's a super quick ride down the hill on the cable car-the stop is very close to the place! It's also a quick walk up to the top of the botanical gardens and you can take a lovely walk to town through the garden. The apartment was very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. We didn't get a chance to meet the hosts, but I spoke on the phone with Sayuri and she was very helpful and made the check in process smooth! I would definitely recommend a stay at their place!
