Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenants appreciate the friendly property manager and outdoor space in the affordable building. However, one problematic neighbor is a downside. Another tenant praises the quiet area but complains about a persistent roach problem. Repairs are also frequent. In contrast, a scathing review condemns the owner as a slumlord, detailing severe issues like mold and property damage. The advice given is to avoid this building. Despite these contrasting experiences, it appears that the building has some positives like good management and location, but serious concerns exist regarding pest control and owner conduct.
