    Review Summary for 212 Clifton Place
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 212 Clifton Place, Brooklyn, highlight its spacious units with private bathrooms and convenient proximity to the G train as definite positives. However, numerous critical issues diminish tenant satisfaction, including poor building cleanliness, ineffective garbage management, malfunctioning heating, pest problems, and noisy neighbors. Tenants report landlord unresponsiveness and inadequate maintenance, with concerns about illegal shared utilities and safety hazards like missing smoke detectors. While the location and apartment size show potential, renters find the overall living experience frustrating due to neglect and poor management, advising significant improvements in upkeep and communication to enhance tenant retention.

    Save Yourself the Headache
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    At least for apt 2 the rooms are huge, everyone gets there own bathroom and the location is amazing. Surprisingly quiet but guess that depends on the room you get. Quick access to everything.
    Cons:
    Everything else besides the pros. I’ll just start by saying they moved people into a building that was no where near ready to be occupied. Starting from baseboard heaters not working, utilities bills being high and inaccurate. Currently have a shared meter case against the landlord for electricity. Landlord very unresponsive, if he says he will show up he won’t provide a time so you waste your day to then finally hearing from him saying he won’t make it today, or he agrees to a time and shows up hrs late. Don’t think he respects women. He show up unannounced sometimes, only time you can get them to do anything is if you threaten them with calling 311, withholding rent, or housing court. They don’t keep you in the loop with any issue. You have to keep calling and calling and calling and they only work on their time. Not that I was staying anyway but has the nerve to raise rent when this place is trashy. I love the space and the area but it’s like a second job dealing with the landlord.
    Advice to owner:
    You need to do a full extensive inspection of this place and fix what issues come up. This place has potential to be great if you fixed issues and treated your tenants with respect.
