    Review Summary for 50 Lincoln Road
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 50 Lincoln Road highlight its excellent location near Prospect Park, subway access, and spacious apartment layouts as major advantages. Many tenants appreciate rent-stabilized units and proximity to amenities like grocery stores and laundromats. However, persistent issues overshadow these benefits: the building suffers from outdated infrastructure, frequent pest infestations, poor cleanliness, and malfunctioning elevators. Noise from neighbors and weak soundproofing are common complaints. Management is often described as unresponsive or inattentive, with calls for better building maintenance, security improvements, and effective pest control. While affordable and well-situated, renters should weigh these drawbacks carefully before committing.
