We enjoyed our stay at William's place. As previous reviews have mentioned the building is a little run down but the studio itself is really lovely and spotlessly clean. You can easily get to Manhattan in 30 mins and the subway Is an easy 10 minute walk. The only negative for us was noise on the streets at night, with people blaring music on the street but obviously this is completely out of William's control. He was an excellent host and extremely helpful and responsive.
