Some info on Small Time Studios and how to get the most out of your session;

Small Time Wifi:

Available for everyone, no password required.

Use of common spaces:

Small Time Studios features multiple common spaces that you’re welcome to use during your time.

Downstairs features Bar Andino, a beautiful light filled room at the front of the building. Play a game of pool, access the free wifi, and take some time out. Nelson, our Bar Andino partner, will be happy to feed you his delicious empanadas, along with service of drinks during the bar’s opening hours. Studio bookings receive a 20% discount for all Bar Andino orders.

Off the hallway is The Piano Den, hosting an upright piano, chesterfield couch and cosy vibes. Feel free to test your new material out in here or just chill.

Out the back is a small garden space, whilst upstairs is a partially covered rooftop patio – perfect for those sunny afternoons. Please keep any smoking or vaping to these outdoor areas.

There are four unisex toilets downstairs, incl one wheelchair accessible and one ambulant. Upstairs there is a small bathroom (toilet and shower) and kitchenette with kettle, microwave and fridge.

We’re happy to offer all of these spaces to you during your visit to Small Time, please extend the same respect to us by not going behind the bar or into the commercial kitchen. And a reminder to please leave each space how you found it.

What do I do if equipment breaks or I can’t work out how to use it?

Each of our rooms have brief instructions on how to set up the included equipment to get you underway as soon as you can in each session.

Please contact us through the WhatsApp chat icon with details of the issue, along with a photo if possible, and we’ll endeavour to talk you through the issue, get the equipment replaced or move you into another room, if available.
