Review Summary for 645 Willoughby Avenue
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 645 Willoughby Avenue shed light on persistent issues overshadowing the building’s convenient location near multiple subway lines. Tenants report serious pest infestations, primarily rats and roaches, coupled with poor garbage management. Heating is often unreliable with cold spots, and summers are noted to be uncomfortably hot due to poor ventilation and lack of AC. Management is frequently described as unresponsive, neglectful, and sometimes hostile, with multiple complaints about mishandled repairs, safety concerns, and disputes over security deposits. Noise levels and thin walls also detract from comfort. While the space is ample and neighbors are sometimes friendly, many strongly advise considering other options unless absolutely necessary.

Management does not care for your housing issues
Former Tenant
Pros:
Close to the G train & J Z m
Cons:
Rats, trash management, the landlord does not respond to your needs & requests. There is no laundry in building as listed. They will find a way to make sure your security deposited is forfeited
Advice to owner:
Don’t put word into tenants mouth & follow their requests
