Maria Angela S. booked a 30th birthday party for 30 people
This location was literal perfection! From the aesthetic, to the accessibility, and overall space! I didn’t need to decorate much as Sammy’s place had just the right amount of elegance and chic I wanted my 30th birthday to convey! Getting a hold of Sammy was easy as well (she messaged back on a timely manner!) At the same time, I felt secure knowing there were security cameras! Even after my event, I asked Sammy to review footage for me just in case I left something behind, which she gladly did! I seriously can’t get enough of this place, cleaning up was also a breeze as we only had to wipe down and load the trash! Would highly recommend 10/10 would book again!
