Ruth's studio is very beautiful, private and relaxing. If you're looking for a private space, lots of room and down time after exploring the busy city, this is the place to be. You will hear planes during the day but it soon becomes background noise, it didn't bother me. It's so close to the lively neighborhood of Newtown and Marrickville whilst living on a peaceful, leafy-surrounding street so you get the best of both worlds. With provided breakfast, coffee and snacks was so thoughtful and special, made living in the studio more enjoyable. I stayed here for a week and wanted to stay even longer. Ruth was also very responsive and friendly. Definitely recommended and be coming back. Memorable experience. Thanks again Ruth & Joe!
