The studio is in a great location - just a walk from the beach - which was great for my boyfriend and me as we were there mainly to go surfing. Molly was very accommodating by allowing us to come in a bit early as our flight was in the morning. The space is smaller but we had all the amenities needed for a week in Mission Beach. It was the perfect spot for the two of us and Molly left a binder with a plethora of information for the surrounding area on restaurants, grocery stores, etc. We used the binder extensively to find good recommendations for places to eat, groceries, and surf rental shops. Would definitely recommend this studio and will be back. We didn't have a car so I couldn't speak to the parking issue.
