The house is up a steep windy road on a hill. Working out where to park was a bit tricky, but we got there in the end and the view more than made up for any car confusion, it was just what we were hoping for.
The road up is definitely steep. And hard to park. But its a great location. Close to the cable cars. The house is kind of oddly decorated but was clean and loved the view from the table outside in the morning.
