The studio is brand new, clean, modern, and in an excellent area of town. I would highly recommend it to solo or business travelers and couples looking for a quiet spot that's still in the heart of things. We were able to walk through Laurelhurst, eat in Belmont, meet friends along Hawthorne, and even wander into Richmond—all within a 30-minute walk of the studio. Mey is a communicative host and, if it's not already booked, I look forward to staying in her cottage next time I'm in Portland.
