We enjoyed our stay, the place was clean and had everything we needed during our stay. It was also very well located only a few minutes away from the city center. Greg was very responsive and friendly and would definitely stay again if we have the opportunity.

We had a wonderful stay at Greg’s Historic Recording Studio. The place is seriously cool and has such a fun, unique vibe. If you love music, great decor, and a stay with personality, this place rocks!We especially loved the jukebox, the instruments, the artwork, and all the thoughtful touches throughout the home. It felt comfortable, creative, and unlike anywhere else we’ve stayed. We were also so grateful we could bring our dog, PJ, which made the getaway even more special.The location was fantastic, close to so many great spots in St. Augustine. Greg was a great host, and we would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a memorable, music-filled, and pet-friendly stay.

We loved the house and the fenced yard for our dog. It was also perfectly located. We could walk anywhere and either direction was either a marina or lovely houses with beautiful architecture.

The recording studio was a great place to stay, and we'll try to stay here again when we come back to St. Augustine. Greg (the host) was excellent about communicating, check-in and check-out were easy, the location was good, and the studio itself was clean, comfortable, interesting, and stylishly decorated. My one suggestion would be to update the amenities listing: Expedia says the studio includes laundry facilities, but when we checked in we found a sign saying that the washer/dryer were for housekeeping use only (not for guests). It turned out to be no problem for us, but it could have been if we'd packed/planned differently.
