This studio features plush linens, a beautifully preserved art deco bath renovated in 2026, and a refreshed kitchen stocked with essentials. It’s your comfortable home away from home.

Step into a thoughtfully restored 1930s studio where historic charm meets easy, modern living. Sink into a full-size bed dressed in fluffy, high-quality linens, unwind with your favorite shows on the SmartTV, and start your mornings in a beautifully restored art-deco bathroom, renovated in 2026 with care for its original character.

The remodeled kitchen is stocked with the essentials you need to cook, dine, and truly settle in. The dining table and seating make it perfect for eating, relaxing or working during short or midterm stays. Every detail of the décor was chosen to honor the building’s history while creating a warm, welcoming space that feels like home.
