I'd be very cautious of someone else's recommended studio. I was so excited once to get a studio that someone else recommended. Everything they'd said about what I'd get was true, but the road noise, which they'd just mentioned in passing, was extremely distracting to me. So go with the view you want. I loved the woods view-to someone else, they may say "Big Deal, a bunch of trees, why did she recommend this?" But it's the type of view I wanted.
