The charms and the comforts of this beautiful space and the kindness of Anina's hospitality cannot be overstated. It's simply ingenious how spacious and bright this little studio feels. I stayed here during the month that Santa Cruz was besieged by storms and floods—and I was warm and dry and safe and cozy through it all. Most places I've stayed did not have a good work area, so I especially appreciated the very well designed and functional desk and ergonomic chair. I hope to return in sunnier times to explore more of the sweet neighborhood on foot and to sit at the table in the pretty garden.
