10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay. The studio was clean, comfortable, and in such a beautiful area. One of our favorite parts was taking walks around the neighborhood—it was so peaceful, safe, and scenic. The bedding was incredibly comfortable, and we appreciated the full-sized, good quality shampoo and conditioner provided in the bathroom, which was a nice touch. We also really enjoyed relaxing outside in the seating area. Parking could be a little limited at times, but we were always able to find a spot, so it wasn't a problem for us. Tom was a great host and communicated promptly throughout our stay, making everything easy from check-in to check-out. Overall, we'd definitely recommend staying here and would happily return!"
