Maria provided us with excellent directions for finding her beautifully appointed cozy studio. All we had to do was park the car and walk to the studio where the key was in the door. The studio is in a quiet neighborhood. It is set apart from the main house and has its own private sitting area where we enjoyed our morning coffee. Maria had thoughtfully left a generous selection of juices, sodas, waters, fruit and Biscotti treats all on the house. The studio is a 'green' environment and we appreciated the air dried linens and natural soaps and shampoos. Maria was very friendly and we had a nice conversation with her and met her gentle dog, EZ. If you are looking for a quiet private retreat in a beautiful contemporary setting, this is it.
