I stayed at the studio for two months while in Staten Island. Everything was as described, plus more. The family is very accommodating. They helped me with anything I needed from directions to helping convert the couch to a bed. The apartment is clean, spacious and has its own private entrance. The house is close to two delis and a pizza place and also a laundry. I would definitely stay here again. You do hear the family moving around upstairs but it is not unbearable. Thanks again for my stay !
