The place itself isn't that close to Barclays Center, and it's 15-20 minutes to the nearest station. This would be a good place for someone who only plans to be mostly in Brooklyn or the southern parts of Manhattan. Otherwise, you're looking at pretty long commutes.
The bathroom has a lot of quirks, which a simple note in the house rules could solve. It also wasn't stocked with shampoo.
Our first two nights, people were talking right outside the window, which was distracting. Wouldn't recommend for light sleepers.
