I lived here for four months, and it was the best experience of all time!
Sophie and Kotaro were amiable, responsive, and wonderful. The room and house were equipped with everything you need for an extended stay. The neighborhood is safe, with many cafes, shops, and exciting places. Manhattan can be reached by subway in 35-45 minutes (Central Park or Times Square).
And there are many, many positive things. I definitely recommend staying here =)
