The studio is secluded at the back of a lot, behind some rental units, in a quiet residential neighborhood. Parking is reserved and right next to the studio. It is a short walk to great shops and restaurants in Columbia City and is convenient to the light rail. Everything was as represented--the place is basically like a hotel room. Marcus was communicative and helpful. One minor complaint is that there was a heavy scent of fabric softener/dryer sheets on the bedding and towels, which on the plus side means they were clean, but for those like me, sensitive to fragrances, it was a little overpowering.
