The Ladybug Studio is a charming spot and very private. Estell was very helpful, communicated very well, and let us in earlier when we realized our arrival was earlier than we thought. She was great. The Studio is in the back of the property, through a family courtyard and between two outer buildings, and then you step into your secret garden with bamboo planters lining the perimeter. It looks exactly like the photo. There are neighbors around the fenced in patio, but we didn't notice them nor were we disturbed by Estell's family at all. Hope we didn't disturb them when we came back from dinner after dark. The bistro table set is a relaxing spot for tea or coffee or to read or chat. Weather was perfect. There's a motion activated light so that when you come back after dinner, there is light to see your way in, and a little additional light besides the porch light to sit outdoors. It is a studio, so the comfy bed is immediately inside the doors and a coffee/microwave area to the right, very well stocked for the overnight guest. The bathroom is just right - loved the vanity with 2 drawers under the sink. All was very clean, and nicely decorated. Shampoo, soap, conditioner, all we needed was in place. It is a healthy walk to Castro St., longer than it looked on the map, but that was okay for us. We ate at the Tied House, and walked off our lunch before taking a short nap after our flight from the right to left coast. We used Lyft with great results for some of our travel around town. There were always a few nearby. Lovely Mariposa Park is at the end of the block with the history of the city of Mountain View and with info on butterflies (mariposa). We found out this neighborhood is a historic one from the turn of the century. It was entertaining to walk through the neighborhood and the park. Lots of familes, walkers, runners, bicycles. We had only one night and had to leave fairly early. We totally enjoyed our stay, and would return if we need to stay in Mountain View again. Charming place and hostess!
