Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 509 Hicks Street highlight its attractive location near the water and the appeal of the apartments themselves. However, renters consistently cite poor building maintenance, including cleanliness issues, gas leaks, and heating problems. The landlord is widely viewed as unresponsive and difficult, with complaints about abrupt rent hikes, communication failures, and neglect of tenant concerns. Garbage management and noise levels also drew criticism. While neighbors are sometimes seen as friendly, overall, tenants do not recommend the building due to management issues and safety concerns. Rent stabilization is absent, further impacting affordability and tenant protections.
