A Boon in Abilene
My husband and I regularly travel to Abilene to see family, and this studio is the perfect place to catch your breath (especially in the craziness that is the holiday season). The guesthouse is easy to access, with a private entrance, and overall a beautiful space. The owner was lovely to communicate with, sharing activities going on in Abilene while we were in the area and also sharing his favorite coffee! Overall, we had such a good time and we hope to stay here again on our future trips.
