Really great place. The best thing about the place was the treehouse effect, a lot of windows, a lot of light, and looking at the light on the trees. The decor in the studio showed a level of sophistication I haven't seen in (stodgy) Salem. I felt a little touch of Manhattan about it. Great fridge, the freezer is separate compartment so frozen food stays frozen. (I must admit to gobbling up some ice cream and herb cream cheese left in there.)
Mary Lou went out of her way to explain everything and to be communicative when she wasn't there. She was a good hostess. Treat yourself to this studio on Fairmont Hill. It's unique in Salem and better than the Grand Hotel.
