Alix was definitely hostess with the mostest but very chilled and pretty much left you to your own devices. She's absolutely genuinely helpful and let me drop off my suitcase early. She is really quick to respond to queries too. The studio is exactly as described so no surprises. The bed is so comfy and the studio filled with quirky items of furniture but it is very homely. The location is amazing - walked everywhere including to venice beach, abbot kinney, main street, santa monica and venice canals. I didn't get to ride the bikes but it's nice to have that option. Penny the dog is totally adorable too. Loved my time at Tangerine Dream studio and hope to return again one day! Thanks for everything Alix! :-)
