A total find! One of the best-kept secrets in PTown. This studio offers everything you could possibly want. Not only is it close to everything -- one block from the Boatslip, very short walk to the Gifford House and the grocery store, on the way to the beach -- it is quiet and feels secluded. You can people-watch from the adorable front porch, and then you can retreat into a warm, surprisingly spacious apartment.

Don't let the square footage scare you off: this apartment has been perfectly designed in a European style so that everything fits perfectly. Not an inch is wasted, and yet it doesn't feel at all cramped. The Murphy bed is super comfortable with its memory foam mattress; there is a large TV with cable; every cooking utensil you could possibly need, a nice-sized bathroom with shower, and a big comfy couch. The super-thoughtful owners even provide amenities like extra razors, mouthwash, various soaps, a heated towel rack, and other little touches that make this place feel special and intimate and personal without being intrusive. It feels much more like a warm hotel than an anonymous rental.

I used this studio for a three-week writing retreat, and I found it to be the perfect place to work during the day. When night came, I had all of Provincetown five minutes away. And on days when I needed a break, it was just a quick walk or bike ride to Herring Cove. The sunset from the front porch was inspiring in itself.

There is a reason why the owners -- who are super friendly and responsive without being intrusive -- call this place their little "slice of heaven." I can't recommend it highly enough, and I hope to be back many times.
