Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews of 116 North 8 Street highlight a building with historic charm, featuring original finishes and spacious, sunlit units. Residents praise the small, friendly community and responsive new landlords who have improved maintenance and safety. However, several renters report issues such as pest infestations, unsatisfactory cleanliness in common areas, poor soundproofing, and invasive security cameras. Some point out hazards like peeling linoleum and water damage, along with inconsistent heat and water pressure. The absence of a doorman and narrow hallways are noted drawbacks. Overall, while the building offers character and a prime location, ongoing maintenance and management responsiveness remain critical areas for improvement.

A walk up in Williamsburg
Former Tenant
Pros:
I’ve lived here for over a year and find the building very clean and no pests of any kind. My apartment has a mix of modern and old style elements. A lot of original finishes that were excellently preserved over the years. With only 7 other neighbors in the building we get to know everyone well. Everyone at the building is so friendly!
Cons:
The hallway is narrow and no doorman.

Beautiful historic building taken over by transplants
Former Tenant
Pros:
The sunlight and the double height ceilings.
Cons:
The landlords live in the building and are constantly doing renovations themselves. They treat the building like its a hobby project. This building is a combination of RC/RS units, despite the rents being charged. There is no roof access. Building is not pet friendly.
