Host does a very good job of describing the stairs. It's up to the guest to read the description throughly and decide. We have a small dog so knew we could carried her up the stairs and that worked just fine. If you have a large dog you cannot carry, and you are not comfortable with steep stairs and a latter to the bedroom this location may not be for you. Again the host is very clear, and we appreciated that. Good onsite parking, host communicates quickly and throughly.
