Elliott’s studio is very practical and cozy for a solo traveler or duo. After a 13hr drive to the studio, we were greeted by a shiny bottle of red wine under dim kitchen lighting. This was a lovely gesture by Elliott, aside from being a highly responsive and attentive host. The kitchen is stocked with supplies for cooking and eating. The bed is surprisingly comfortable and fits two people well. The shower is clean with seemingly new appliances. There are drawers to stash your toiletries, and we were also given two sets of body and face towels. A minor inconvenience could be the shower for bigger people, but considering the dimensions of the studio, I don’t think it could be more complete or better designed. All in all, it is a very comfortable stay that feels really safe considering the location and two locked doors for entry. The neighborhood is teeming with cool cafes and bistros—I recommend Bar Henrietta for tapas/drinks and Toi, Moi et Cafe for breakfast/brunch!
