Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 55 Linden Boulevard, Brooklyn, emphasize affordability, spacious apartments, and proximity to Prospect Park as key benefits. The building is rent-stabilized, generally clean with regular pest control, and features respectful neighbors and decent amenities like a working elevator. However, residents report inconsistent heating, occasional hot water outages, and issues with garbage disposal cleanliness. Owner responsiveness varies, with some complaints about slow or unhelpful management. Security is a concern due to common access and tampered door locks. Loitering and noise from neighboring residents also impact comfort. Overall, while the building offers value, improvements in maintenance, security, and management communication would enhance the tenant experience.

Has problems but cheap

Pros

It's affordable, near Prospect Park and trains, and many of the units have large common spaces. The hallways are regularly cleaned and we;ve never had issues with neighbors

Cons

Hot water frequently goes out, management is very unresponsive and rude, heat is inconsistent, and when things do get fixed it's done so cheaply

Former tenant·1 day ago

Not the worst, but not the best

Pros

Cheap and close to the park

Cons

The garbage rooms are disgusting and they have a really bad roach problem. Some of the apartments face courtyards that aren't clean and flood. The super and management are really slow to answer. And there has been a case of bedbugs in the last year.

Advice to the owners
