Positives:
The studio is in a really pretty location, up a steep hill. The property is beautifully landscaped with succulents. The street is mostly very quiet (with a bit of traffic during the morning commute hours). The bed is comfy.
Drawbacks:
- It doesn't feel super private. The only full, unobscured windows face the main house, which also looks over the patio.
- It's directly over the garage, which isn't mentioned in the listing. We were woken up by the residents chatting as they walk directly past the studio windows each morning, and the garage door shook the studio when we were in bed (both mornings and nights).
- The internet was super poor, and we couldn't get phone service (wouldn't recommend booking for a work trip).
- There was a bit of dog hair on the floor, so if you have allergies, you might avoid booking.
Our general feeling was the place was totally fine, but ~$190/night feels overpriced!
