Great space for a video or photo shoot. Tons of natural light from the large windows facing the living room and kitchen so getting a clean shot for our interview that was properly white balanced was a breeze. Very clean unit with chic decor. Jessica, our host, was super responsive and helpful. Highly recommended and will be reserving her place again.
