Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Reviews for 102 Convent Avenue highlight a mixed living experience. Renters appreciate the building's location near City College and public transit, along with roomy units featuring updated appliances, an elevator, and conveniences like Amazon lockers. Friendly neighbors and an online rent/maintenance system are also praised. However, persistent pest issues, particularly rats and roaches tied to poor garbage room maintenance, are a major concern. Complaints include inconsistent water pressure, occasional water quality problems, frequent elevator outages, package theft, and management's delayed responsiveness. While some acknowledge recent improvements and rent reductions, many feel the building’s aging infrastructure and cleanliness require significant attention to justify the cost.
