Review Summary for 1259 St Johns Place
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent tenant feedback for 1259 St Johns Place, Brooklyn, emphasizes a mix of positives and challenges. Many appreciate spacious, clean units, effective soundproofing, convenient laundry facilities, and friendly neighbors. The building generally stays clean with good pest control and water pressure. However, a significant concern is package theft due to insecure entryways and slow or indifferent management responses. Several renters report unresponsiveness and lack of urgency in addressing safety and maintenance issues, including unauthorized apartment entries and persistent building alarm problems. While some tenants recommend the building for its amenities, others advise improving security measures and management responsiveness to enhance resident satisfaction.
