Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 916 Carroll Street highlight a mixed living experience. The building benefits from a great location near Prospect Park and cultural institutions, with spacious, rent-stabilized units and generally respectful neighbors. Tenants praise the friendly super and some responsive management efforts. However, persistent pest infestations, including roaches and bed bugs, are a major concern, often due to inconsistent extermination. Cleanliness and garbage management receive criticism, with reports of odors and occasional water pressure and heating issues. Security and package theft problems have been noted, with calls for improved building security and more reliable maintenance responsiveness.

Full of German Roaches

Pros

Great location and neighborhood.

Cons

Unit and apartment was full of German roaches. As of June 2025, you could see German roaches on walls during the day. Dead roaches in ovens, coming from light fixtures, through the door crevices. Roach feces turns hallway walls brown. Management behalves like slum lords. Long term residents said this used to be a nice building 30 years ago…but they aren’t serious about extermination and need to hire more than one person to clean two buildings. I’m truly scarred from my experience living here. I couldn’t eat

Advice to the owners

Stop behaving like slum lords. Do the guy extermination needed to get rid of the building wide German Roach infestation. Hire more than one person to clean TWO buildings. How do you sleep at night?

Unbeatable location and price

Nice spacious apartment on a lovely quiet block. Rent stabilized.

Cons

We got bed bugs 3 times in 5 years, they need to treat the whole building but they won’t so they keep popping up.
