    Review Summary for 836 Bergen St
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 836 Bergen St, Brooklyn praise the building’s cleanliness, spacious apartments, and friendly, responsive staff including super and doormen. Residents find the location convenient with well-maintained common areas and pet-friendly policies. Water pressure and heating generally perform well, and pest control is effective. Noise levels vary due to nearby school playgrounds and street activity, with some sound insulation issues noted. Amenities like the gym and laundry are appreciated but occasionally outdated or in need of repair. Rent is considered high by many, with suggestions to better utilize and furnish the roof space. Overall, the building offers a good living environment if noise sensitivity and occasional maintenance are manageable.
