Heather's place was clean and comfortable and in a safe neighborhood. The train into Williamsburg and Dumbo areas of Brooklyn took about 20-30 mins and to Times Square NYC about 45 mins. Heather's place is at the end of the line Brooklyn College in Little Haiti. if you don't need to be in the heart of Brooklyn or Manhatten, great place to stay, otherwise may be a bit too far out for convenience. Lastly, there is no living area; basically 2 bedrooms, a shared bathroom, with a center area with open kitchen and bar height table. Bedrooms were a good size and very comfortable.
