Booked this space for a private rental two months in advance of my booking date for a dance rehearsal and confirmed with the studio owner there were no classes scheduled at the time i booked. On the day of my booking, there was a class going on during my rental time meaning the owner, Janelle, had double booked the studio. It took several calls to the studio owner to get a response in which she told me “ I’m sorry I don’t really check peerspace for private rentals—I really just prioritize classes.
