Review Summary for 255 15 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 255 15 Street, Brooklyn highlight its desirable location, spacious units with balconies, and quiet surroundings as attractive features. The building offers elevator access and some well-maintained common areas. However, many renters report persistent pest issues, particularly cockroach infestations, and express dissatisfaction with the management’s slow responsiveness and lack of prompt resolution. Noise levels and neighbor interactions are generally positive, but complaints about thin walls and occasional disruptive neighbors exist. Water pressure and heat are variable, with some tenants enjoying control over heating. Overall, while the physical attributes and location are commendable, management and pest control are recurring concerns for prospective renters.

LOTS OF COCKROACHES
Former Tenant
Pros:
Rent didn't go up by much while we were there
Cons:
LOTS AND LOTS OF COCKROACHES. Had a huge pest problem and Victor barely helped. One day, we had tons of roaches come out at once from the boiler room. Had to be in front of the door killing them non stop because they were all coming out. Victor offered to send someone in a couple of days. But we needed help RIGHT THEN because it was NON-STOP. Ended up getting someone that came an hour later and Victor didnt refund us.
Also, left the apartment in perfect condition and still found an excuse to not give us back our deposit. Horrible landlord.
Thin walls, you can hear the door of the lobby and ring of the elevator all the time.
