    Review Summary for 91 Broadway
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 91 Broadway in Brooklyn highlight mixed experiences. Tenants appreciate the convenient location, updated security, and cleanliness of the building. However, concerns include delayed landlord response to maintenance issues, inadequate amenities like no dishwashers or laundry, and occasional water pressure problems. Some tenants have encountered serious drawbacks such as mold infestation, noise disturbances, and unsettling revelations about the building being near a morgue. Despite these challenges, the building's proximity to key areas in Williamsburg makes it appealing for some renters, while others caution against renting due to unresponsive management and subpar living conditions.

    Advice to owner:
    invest a bit more in the property to justify prices, it could be beneficial

    Worst landlord in Williamsburg
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Location: 10 min walking to J/M trains and 1 stop away from Manhattan, but J or M won't take you to that many places so it's still a lot of transfers depending on destination.
    Cons:
    I liked NOTHING about this building. It's catered to younger people desperate to settle in NYC and willing to overpay for a place that is barely habitable. Many issues: 1) I had a fake 2-bed (bedrooms were very small), bathroom was tiny and didn't have a proper ventilation system (nor window), so things got really moldy over there. 2)Same thing happened with the so-called kitchen: no vents nor windows, so I couldn't really cook (unless making salads is considered cooking). 3) There was a leak in the kitchen sink that also resulted in mold and was deliberately ignored by the landlord. 4) Internet: coaxials were broken before I moved in (learned through the provider) so I couldn't get Spectrum, and neither Verizon was available in the building, so I resorted to a mobile hotspot which is far from ideal for remote work. 5) Finally, to make things worse, the business below the residential area of that building is a funeral home and I have seen trash bags marked "biohazardous materials" disposed of carelessly in front of the front door without any special containers - I have no idea what was inside and really don't want to know but none of that procedure seems kosher to me. 6) Oh and landlord made sure to hike the rent after a year (+50%) and refused to negotiate as I was willing to stay a bit longer.
    Advice to owner:
    None, he knows what needs to be done. He is a dishonest landlord, and he was rude and disrespectful to me every time we talked after I signed the lease and made the deposits. He is a shame to the Williamsburg community (includes all cultures and religions practiced there, not just his) and I don't wish him anything bad but want other tenants to avoid his building at all costs.
