We could not have been happier with the studio and the service Alexis gave. The space was just what we wanted, good facilities and room enough for all our team. Alexis went above and beyond at every stage, efficiently, effectively and kindly. His comms were instant and always helpful, with a totally 'can do' attitude and he also seemed interested and engaged in our campaign. We recommend 150%
