Nice place for an overnighter! Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate and made the yard very muddy and we were nervous about it getting all over the place because it was tight quarters. But a very nice studio!

I was so pleased with everything. I highly recommend this twilight studio experience. The place is so nicely decorated and the details are done so well for making your stay very comfortable. There’s a cute little yard attached with two bicycles. I used one of them to ride down to the marsh and had a great experience. The host is extremely accommodating. I can’t say enough good things about this place.
I put a garbage bag on the seat so it wouldn’t get wet. It has gears.
The decor is so well done.
If you ride down to the marsh, there’s a good chance you’ll see otters and if you’re a birder, it’s birder paradise.

If you need lots of space, this is not for you. The space is small but so charming and comfy. We would deffinetly return. There is a very creative feel with art work that is pleasing. The host has included great suggestions for dining options and areas of interest.

Sadhana couldn’t have made such a small, yet cute studio any more cozy and accommodating than she did. Our short stay was lovely. The kitchenette is stocked with teas, coffee, a Brita filter, and dinnerware as well as a fridge, countertop stove, etc. The studio is only a walk away from downtown and Cal Poly Humboldt. The most hospitable VRBO we have visited.
