    Review Summary for 191 Claremont Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews of 191 Claremont Avenue praise the building for its quiet, clean, and spacious apartments, as well as a very responsive and friendly superintendent who efficiently handles maintenance and trash management. Residents enjoy nice neighbors and generally low noise levels. However, consistent concerns include an unreliable elevator, slow or poor management communication, outdated rent payment methods, heating issues, occasional pest problems, and some needed repairs in units and common areas. While the super's dedication is a highlight, renters advise management to improve responsiveness and communication, especially during building-wide issues. Overall, the building suits those valuing a peaceful environment and a caring super despite some management drawbacks.

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Nothing, the super is nice but sassy
    Cons:
    i am not one to write bad reviews but dealing with this company has been a nightmare. the building is old and requires so many repairs. it is infested with mice and roaches. the toilet doesn’t flush properly. i didn’t have hot water for over a month when i first moved in and even now it takes sometimes over 20 minutes for the water to heat up. i got stuck in the elevator three times and it took them five months of it being out of service to get it fixed (with no consideration of their lesser-abled and elderly tenants while the elevator was out of service). you can try to express all of your concerns to management (as i did over and over again) but you will not receive a timely response if you receive one at all. they have out of date processes; they only accept via check or wire transfer in special cases. as a result, my rent check was stolen and my bank account was hacked. they do not care about their tenants. they are rude, unprofessional, and gaslighting.
