STR-23-02 The space The House has two stories and this unit owns the entire second floor. You MUST climb about 40 stairs to reach the unit since the house is built along a hill, which might be a little inconvenient if you are traveling with lots of luggages.

Noted that for people living in master bedroom, you have to go through the secondary bedroom to get in/out of the house since the glass sliding door is the entrance of the unit.
