Review Summary for 45 1 Avenue
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Tenant reviews for 45 1 Avenue reveal a mixed living experience. The building boasts a great location, decent-sized apartments, good water pressure, and some friendly neighbors. Many appreciate the superintendent and elevator facilities. However, cleanliness and pest control are recurring issues, with frequent reports of unpleasant odors, roaches, and smelly hallways. Noise levels vary, but some tenants experience disturbances from neighbors and smokers. Management responsiveness receives mixed feedback, with some describing it as slow or lazy. Despite these drawbacks, the building offers affordable rent and character, though improvements in maintenance and pest management could enhance resident satisfaction.
