Kathleen’s place is in a very pretty neighborhood in an ideal location- one block from Washington Park. My husband and I spent a day visiting the International Rose Test Garden and the breathtakingly beautiful Japanese Garden, which are _both_ in the park. The studio itself is comfortable, clean, and feels nicely secluded and private. Kathleen responded immediately to all of my questions and concerns, and when we met her and Sara in passing outside in front of the house, they were both very warm and friendly. The kitchen is full sized and fully equipped, which I had not expected from the photos (it looked more like a kitchenette). It’s also very nice and new. The bathroom was thoughtfully stocked with toiletries and Kleenex.
