There was a band and the drums were loud during my shoot.

The size of the studio was excellent for my needs and it really served the goal I rented the studio for. I love the way it turned out in the final video edit. Service was great as well, i was never disturbed or distracted. It will be worth your money.

The light panel was not fully functional due to having been affected by previous renters but eventually we still managed to get the color background that worked for us.

The space was very useful for its purpose.

- attendant was not very polite to me or my fellow occupants and was reluctant to answer any questions about how to turn on and off any lights in the facility/where the bathroom was etc. When we asked to use the sound system it had been “rented” elsewhere this we had no music speakers on short notice. We were not given any assistance with lighting that has to be controlled by the attendant until asking multiple times and did not feel very welcomed in this space.
