    Review Summary for 429 Humboldt Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Reviews for 429 Humboldt Street, Brooklyn consistently praise its prime location and in-unit washer/dryer. However, tenants report significant issues including poor maintenance, frequent pest problems, and inadequate safety measures like non-functional CO2 detectors. Garbage management and cleanliness are notably lacking, with flooding in the basement during rain. Many describe the landlord as unresponsive, rude, and neglectful of tenant concerns, contributing to a stressful living experience. Noise levels and heating receive mixed feedback, but neighbors are often viewed positively. Overall, the building struggles with upkeep and management, making it a challenging choice despite its desirable location.

    Williamsburgs Unresponsive Slumlord
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great location. In unit washer and dryer.
    Cons:
    Building is not maintained at all. Had to call the fire department for a gas leak, there was no working CO2 detectors in the building. Basement unit floods every time it rains. Had a roach problem that landlord didn’t address. Front door was broken into and was never fixed.
    Advice to owner:
    Do not own property
