What a fantastic place and location! The place is a little small for 5 people; a dream palace for a romantic couple, just right for a family with 2-3 kids. Best to have a car to get up the hill above Berkeley but not absolutely necessary. Actually a nice 20 minute walk downhill into Berkeley and you can easily use a taxi or Uber to get back up the hill. House and all amenities in great shape. The view of the entire Bay Area is unparalleled. Elsie and her family were great, even picking me up at the BART on my arrival.
