We loved staying at Kate’s place!
The location is unmatched… we watched the sunset almost every day from the park next door, which also seemed to be the local “hang.”
I wouldn’t describe Kate’s place as an entirely separate studio… it was in a converted room of the home, so you share walls and doors with others. Light comes through the interior door from what sounded like their kitchen, so you know when they’re up and making breakfast! It wasn’t a huge issue, but certainly something to be aware of if you’re looking for more privacy. We also couldn’t get much hot water in the shower… not sure if that was a setting for the studio’s hot water supply, or if we were sharing hot water with those living above.
Again, we enjoyed our stay here and would recommend to others looking for friendly prices directly by the water.
