Review Summary for 991 Willoughby Avenue
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Reviews for 991 Willoughby Avenue in Brooklyn highlight its prime location, rooftop with scenic views, and pet-friendly policies as major benefits. Tenants appreciate spacious balconies, clean and well-maintained common areas, strong water pressure, and responsive management—especially staff like "Dave." However, frequent elevator breakdowns and inconsistent heating units are common frustrations, with some tenants noting heating and cooling units can be bulky or noisy. Pest control is generally good but could benefit from more preventative measures. Noise levels are mostly tolerable, and neighbors are described as friendly. Overall, it’s a solid choice for renters valuing location and management responsiveness, despite some infrastructure challenges.

Once a Nice Building
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great views and very well lit. Convenient area to live in. Nice wooden floors and big windows. Great balconies.
Cons:
This building was great when I first moved. But now there are issues such as problematic heating units which you are expected to clean monthly and even then they will not turn on consistently on cold days. In addition, the elevator is constantly breaking down and management is not very communicative to tenants about when the elevator will be fixed. This can go for from a few days to a few weeks.
Also the first repair man was absolutely exceptional but the new one I don’t even bother with because of the excuses, delays, and multiple emails.
Advice to owner:
Management can be on top of things regarding elevator repairs. If they would update tenants they could plan ahead to either not be home or be away while the elevator is fixed. Seems like management has lost interest in this building as they’ve expanded to other areas.
