While the property's central location is appreciated, some guests noted a lack of information provided for local services and appliance usage. The absence of central heating and ventilation options were concerns, and the outdoor area's upkeep was criticised. However, the interior cleanliness and overall accommodation experience were positively received.
Guests found the interior of The Studio to be clean, which reflects well on the property's upkeep. However, the outdoor area was described as overgrown and unkept, with dirty outside furniture, which detracts from the overall cleanliness score.
The location of The Studio is described as perfect by a guest, indicating a high level of satisfaction with its position in Canterbury. No negative comments about the location were provided.
The property is generally considered comfortable by guests. However, the lack of central heating and the inability to ventilate the bedroom safely at night have affected the comfort level for some guests.
While the property boasts excellent equipment, guests expressed difficulty in operating appliances due to a lack of instructions. The unusual placement of the washing machine and the absence of central heating also suggest room for improvement in facilities and maintenance.
There is no mention of gifts or additional thoughtful touches provided by the hosts in the reviews. Therefore, it is not possible to assess the thoughtfulness category, and the score is set to null.

Very comfortable property, would have given an excellent review, however there was no booklet giving details of essential services, nor any details on how to operate some of the excellent equipment. We were also disappointed to find that the advertised as central heating was not available , this would have made our stay more enjoyable, as some of the evening temperatures in late September were quite low.

Location was perfect and the accommodation was nice although we were very surprised that there was no folder of information available. It did take us a while to work out how the ovens worked and the pictures on the wall in bedroom 2 were odd to say the least and not family friendly
