Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 21 Fayette Street in Brooklyn reveal a mixed experience. Tenants appreciate the building's pest-free environment, good water pressure, and proximity to public transit, along with natural light and a pleasant rooftop. Some note responsive landlords who address maintenance issues promptly. However, concerns are prevalent about extremely thin walls causing high noise levels, inadequate heating systems tied to costly electric bills, and occasional poor garbage management. Neighbor disturbances and occasional unprofessional staff behavior also affect living quality. While some endorse the building for its positives, others advise improvements in heating, noise insulation, and better upkeep for a more comfortable and secure environment.

Fine, but watch out for the bills
Former Tenant
Pros:
Well maintained, pest-free, responsive landlords and a well-situated building
Cons:
Landlord has all heating and cooling hooked up to electric units that YOU get billed for. Electric can be $500+/mo. Walls are paper thin. Next to a school that makes the street inaccessible by car for hours a day on weekdays.
