Best Answer

The conversation from 'A Scandal in Bohemia' went like this:

HOLMES: ". . . For example, you have frequently seen the steps which lead up from the hall to this room."

WATSON: "Frequently."

HOLMES: "How often?"

WATSON: "Well, some hundreds of times."

HOLMES: "Then how many are there?"

WATSON: "How many! I don't know."

HOLMES: "Quite so! You have not observed. And yet you have seen. That is just my point. Now, I know that there are seventeen steps, because I have both seen and observed. . . ."

There are also steps leading further up to more rooms, but a count has never been given for those.
