My husband, son and I were visiting Los Angeles on vacation and planned to do the typical tourist things (Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Venice, Santa Monica, Malibu) The location of Sonya's studio was perfect! We were able to get to all locations easily and in a reasonable amount of time. The neighborhood was very nice and just a short walk to coffee shops. The studio itself was adorable - bright and clean, and exactly as described. Sonya was easy to communicate with and gave us suggestions for places to go in the area. Venice itself was full of restaurants, shopping and the beach was great! Highly recommend!
