Sep 15, 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Location Great location and the owner is a gem to communicate with and thoughtful. She got some items for our 18 month old. The negative thing is that the studio has humidity issue which I believe contributed to some sickness. ( stuffy nose, coughing). When we were out and about there was no issues. We did empty the humidifier everyday. ##### Sabrina D.
