Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews highlight a solid building with a prime location and efficient heating system. The neighborhood is quiet with respectful neighbors. However, issues arise with a neighboring dog kennel impacting noise levels and unresponsive landlord. Maintenance delays and outdated kitchen features are notable cons. Residents suggest better landlord responsiveness and soundproofing to mitigate noise disturbances. Despite these challenges, the building maintains cleanliness and good water pressure, making it a decent choice for those seeking convenience in a peaceful environment.

Solid building given location

Pros

Well located Very warm furnace

Cons

Tight staircase Virtual doorman didn’t work

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Solid building but don’t expect landlord help

Pros

Modernized buzzer system, heating system not too noisy, super quiet location, respectful neighbors, decent garbage management, floors / walls are well-maintained, great water pressure

Cons

There’s a dog kennel next door that apparently closed, but you can still faintly here dogs barking in there through the wall. Using a fan / playing music is enough to drown them out. Rare bug issues (2 roaches in 2 years), landlord might as well not exist, kitchen features out of date

Advice to the owners

Be more responsive to apartment issues. Maybe get an issue tracker or something…everything takes 15 emails to get done. Also need to install some soundproofing bc of the dogs
