    Review Summary for 153 Norfolk Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent residents at 153 Norfolk Street commend the convenient location and responsive superintendent, Carlos. However, the building faces recurring issues such as pest infestations, frequent water shutdowns, package theft, and unaddressed maintenance concerns. The inconsistent heat and noisy neighbors also detract from the overall experience. While some appreciate the cleanliness and garbage management, others express dissatisfaction with the management's responsiveness and the deteriorating building conditions. Suggestions include enhanced pest control measures, improved maintenance responses, and better communication from the management to ensure a more pleasant living environment.

    Do not come.
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The location. That really is it
    Cons:
    Roaches because of mad management that leaves trash splattered in the hallway. Elevator broken so often they have a key to let you out before the fire department gets there.
    Advice to owner:
    Actually fix the problems in the apartment that tenants bring to your attention. Or give them their money back
