Jill P. booked an event for 9 people

Account Manager

Yes, I would book again.

Had rented out the space for a client mixology mixer holiday event for a few hours and it was a hit. The space is huge and contemporary. Love the album covers on the wall. Great backdrop for pics and the conference tables were enough to host the mixology course. Definitely going to use the space again in the future for more client team building events. Great location too, close to Bart, close to restaurants and bars, lounges and shops. Can't go wrong with that. Thanks Matt, you are a great host and looking forward to doing more business with you!

Lyubov S. booked a photoshoot for 2 people

Yes, I would book again.

The place is nice for shooting. It needs a clean though. They don't charge a cleaning fee, so I guess it's ok then. Some of the equipment present in the picture wasn't available which made the shooting slightly more complicated. The host was friendly and responds very fast. The overall experience was positive.
