Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for buildings managed by Marlene Henderson-Bennett reflect severe dissatisfaction with management practices. Tenants report extreme issues with cleanliness, garbage control, and pest management, often rating these aspects very poorly. The landlord is frequently described as intrusive and controlling, with complaints of erratic behavior such as turning off heat and hot water, playing loud music continuously, and restricting tenant interactions. Maintenance requests go unanswered, contributing to a difficult living environment. While the neighborhood and neighbors receive some positive remarks, overall, renters caution prospective tenants about privacy invasions, poor upkeep, and unprofessional management, advising others to consider alternative options.

Former tenant·13 hours ago

Renter beware landlord is beyond crazy

Pros

The neighbors are nice and the neighborhood is convenient to everything

Cons

The owner thinks she owns the tenets along with the apartment she is very messy and noisy you will have no privacy and when she gets mad she don’t want you talking to other tents or neighbors. She will turn the hot water and heat down at her convenience and leave her music blasting disturbing all the neighbors 24/7 she watches the ring bell and will tell you who you can allow over she is the epitome of petty she don’t clean the building and she also practices voodoo!! It’s reports and pictures showing how she puts stuff to make her tenants sick

Advice to the owners

GET SOME BUSINESS ABOUT YOUR SELF AND GROW UP

Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

Don't move here

Pros

I love the location and the neighborhood is great. Convenient to the train, nice people locally and quiet (for Brooklyn).

Cons

The landlord is insane. Do not rent any apartment in this building. The land lady treats it like you are renting a room in her hours instead of a business. She makes up rules as she goes along. She doesn't clean, doesn't exterminate, won't fix anything and if you make her mad or ask for anything, she turns down the heat and hot water. You will freeze in the wintertime. She has cameras everywhere and she is always in your business. This place is pure hell. Don't do it.

Advice to the owners

Sell the building so someone else can take care of the building.
