PeerSpace review: “This was a beautiful space for holding our event. We rented the room on a Saturday to teach a class to 15 Students and it was perfect. The room was very spacious, clean, and quiet. There is a nice sized kitchen connected to the room which was helpful for keeping our drinks refrigerated throughout the day. The bathrooms were all very tidy and the two gentlemen who assisted us in setting up for our meeting were extremely helpful and kind. The communication with the building’s Manager, Shay, was exceptional. We will absolutely be returning to the Grove Building to host our future meetings!”
