Very quiet location, although not too far from highways and grocery shopping. I was able to listen to the birds in the mornings.The location was good, and it was possible to get around without entering highways. A good grocery store with take-out, regular groceries and natural foods is not too far away. Basement daylight studio is decorated very thoughtfully, in a cheerful array of blues and interesting art.... with a good selection of books as well. There is an iron and cleaning supplies if needed. Peggy was an available but non-intrusive host, and very friendly. I would definitely stay here again, either alone or with a companion.
