Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews of 1776 Bedford Avenue highlight it as a rent-stabilized building with spacious apartments and a convenient location near parks and subways. However, residents consistently report poor management responsiveness and maintenance delays, notably regarding pest control and heating issues. Noise from inconsiderate neighbors and smoking inside the building detracts significantly from living conditions, with mail theft also a concern due to lack of secure delivery options. Garbage management and cleanliness vary, while water pressure is generally adequate. Tenants suggest improved security measures and better communication with management to enhance safety and comfort. Overall, the building poses challenges despite some locational benefits.

Reviews

Former tenant·2 months ago

Awful building and management

Pros

Rent stabilized building

Cons

Noisy, annoying, inconsiderate neighbors who drink and smoke in the lobby sometimes and shout all night well past midnight. Landlord who is cheap beyond belief.

Advice to the owners

Review security footage to find out who is making all the noise

Former tenant·11 months ago

Awful super & landlord

Pros

Spacious 1 bedroom apt, rent stablilized.

Cons

Super made no exception for doing work outside of 9-5 and I work 60-80 hours a week so many things took months to get fixed. Landlord was also difficult to get a hold of - no real office at all. Huge pest problem - rats and roaches. At one point all of the apts on my side of the building requested an exterminator.
