Review Summary for 145 Borinquen Place
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 145 Borinquen Place highlight its prime location, spacious units with natural light, rent stabilization, and a helpful super as key positives. However, significant issues persist including unresponsive management, pervasive pest infestations, frequent security concerns like broken doors and package theft, and poor cleanliness in common areas. Noise disturbances from neighbors and an unsafe, unsanitary environment are commonly reported. While some appreciate the building's heating and water pressure, many tenants express dissatisfaction with maintenance delays and neglect. Prospective renters should weigh the benefits of affordability and location against the evident management and upkeep shortcomings.

Water damage in my room for almost a year and management would not fix and stopped responding; pests (mice, cockroaches, ants), sketchy neighbors (people were squatting in a unit for several weeks); loud; gross laundry in basement (ended up using laundromat)
