Willie was a FANTASTIC host. He was always quick to reply, and had so many thoughtful touches in his place, as well as goodie bags with travel toiletries for me and my girls (mouthwash, toothpaste, etc). He even followed up with us a few days into our trip to see if we needed anything! Amenities were accurate - there was a kitchen, two couches (one pulled out into a bed), a bedroom, an iron and ironing board, a hair dryer (this was the best thing to discover), extra linens and towels and PLENTY of pillows.
The apartment was *so* clean and comfortable (don't let the exterior deter you, don't judge a book by it's cover- it's an AWESOME place inside and felt completely safe) and even though you can see/hear all the planes flying overhead in the neighborhood, as long as the windows are closed, you can't hear them!
The only thing I would say to note is that it does take about an hour and a half to get to Manhattan, so be prepared for that - but as long as you buy the CORRECT metrocard and take the Q111 bus that's just around the corner, you can get to the main station and hop onto the subway easy. Oh, and that the bathroom/shower is a little bit small (which made us laugh a little bit, but in a good way)- but it wasn't a big deal for us at all, since we just needed a place to crash during our vacation.
Otherwise, a GREAT place for our girls trip and I would definitely stay here again.
