Review Summary for 2194 Barnes Avenue
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent tenant reviews for 2194 Barnes Avenue reveal a mix of experiences. Positives include a pet-friendly, quiet environment close to transit and attractions like the Bronx Zoo, with some praising safety and friendly neighbors. However, significant concerns are noted regarding pest infestations, particularly water bugs, mice, and roaches, coupled with poor cleanliness and garbage management. Many residents find the owner and management unresponsive to maintenance and extermination requests, resulting in delays and frustration. Heating is inconsistent, and hallway maintenance is lacking. While some tenants recommend the building for its location and community, others strongly advise against moving in until management improves upkeep and responsiveness.

My Building Concerns
Former Tenant
Pros:
•Friendly neighbors
•Pet friendly
•Few mins from train and Bronx Zoo
Cons:
Water Bugs everywhere, including in apartments!
Hallways never swept
Packages are stolen from lobby
Exterminator never shows
Hallway lights have been out for a while
Advice to owner:
There should be a schedule time for the exterminator to come to each apartment because there are too many water bugs in the building. Also needs to be daily up keep of the hallways. There’s at least 15 dead water bugs in the lobby that haven’t been swept in days.
