Mark & Shana were great hosts and were both very accommodating & warm. The studio was in a great! Simple, quiet and clean. Was chilly in January 2016 but the space heater (plus extra blankets if needed) did a perfect job of fixing that. The location is great with it being in close walking distance to McArthur BART and Piedmont St. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in the Temescal area!
