Beautiful location, stunning views of the bay and a wonderful terrace to enjoy the sunset and eat meals outside. There are indeed many, many steps (probably 4-5 flights), but the reward is great. The studio is well equipped with comfortable bed, table/desk, laundry and a a good sized kitchen (no oven or dishwasher though, and it could use some additional equipment for cooking). The studio is part of a single family house in a beautiful hilly residential neighborhood with nice places to walk. It is about a ten minute drive up hills to the house, which is on the top of the hill and it is very quiet. Parking space is very tight, not sure how very large cars/trucks/SUVs would work there.
