I stayed at JaTarra's place for five nights in between staying with friends in New York. While JaTarra was kind enough to accommodate an early check-in and a late check-out, I would have found a message with all the check-in details useful, so as to avoid miscommunications.
The room has a really huge bed, and good natural light, yet no work-desk. The rest of the apartment doesn't get natural light, and I found it undoable to do work there. The room smells good, but the apartment gets little to no ventilation. The neighborhood is generally quiet, yet the walls are sooooo thin! I could hear all the neighbors noise, phones ringing, JaTarra's roommate speaking on the phone,...etc
Also I found the neighborhood too dark at night. I wasn't comfortable taking the 15 mins walk to/from the subway station. The bus-stop was quiet convenient though as it's 3 mins walk.
The place is generally clean-yet not spotless clean. If you are an OCD freak like myself, you would be a bit disappointed. Also I was disappointed that shower towels were not provided, and there was no kettle/boiler (nor coffee/tea supplies) in the kitchen.
All in all, it's a good room for the price, and very convenient if you are in Brooklyn mainly, as it's an easy commute to downtown Brooklyn by bus.
