Review Summary for 1356 Pacific Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Reviews for 1356 Pacific Street reflect a mix of positives in unit size, updated kitchens, and friendly neighbors in a convenient location near the A train. However, significant issues detract from tenant satisfaction. Garbage management is consistently problematic, leading to overflowing trash and rodent infestations inside and outside the building. Heating is frequently unreliable or overly intense, causing discomfort during colder months. Owner responsiveness is notably poor, with multiple reports of unaddressed complaints, slow maintenance, and unreturned deposits. While some units have upgrades, the building struggles with pest control and management transparency, suggesting needed improvements in maintenance and tenant communication for a better living environment.

Decent apartment for the price.
Former Tenant
Pros:
Size of the unit was great. Also came with updated kitchen.
Cons:
Pests. No control over heat. Landlord either runs it too hot or doesn't run it at all. Contact with landlord almost impossible.
Advice to owner:
Improve property Management.

garbage and pest problems
Former Tenant
Pros:
close to the A train, easy to get around from here, neighborhood is nice, and neighbors on this block of Pacific St are very friendly. Building itself is a mixed bag. Some units have been recently updated to be nicer
Cons:
The trash issue is absurd. Always garbage all over the street in front of the building, and bags and debris blocking the trash cans make it impossible to take out my own bags. Rats (outside), mice (inside the unit) and their droppings are everywhere. Exterminator comes about once a month but treatments aren't effective. In the wintertime, it feels like the boiler is going full blast, and I end up having to keep all my windows open all winter, otherwise the apartment gets uncomfortably hot.
Advice to owner:
Fix the trash. Turn the boiler down.
