Review Summary for 416 Gates Avenue
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent tenant feedback for 416 Gates Avenue praises the building's cleanliness, well-maintained garbage management, spacious and well-designed units, ample natural light, and friendly neighbors. Amenities like a rooftop and self-parking garage add value. However, a recurring and significant issue is the poor communication and slow responsiveness from management and the property manager, which frustrates residents, especially when addressing maintenance requests or building problems such as water discoloration. Some tenants note thin walls, drafts, and lower-quality fixtures. While most find the building generally comfortable, improvement in management communication and maintenance responsiveness is crucial to enhance the living experience.

Getting in touch with management is like trying to catch Wi-Fi in the wilderness
Former Tenant
Pros:
It's clean and garbage/recycling is cleared out of the refuse room regularly.
Cons:
Getting in touch with management requires nothing short of a miracle, a full moon, and probably a blood sacrifice. If you ever have an emergency, maybe they'll get back to you in a few days (only after you've sent multiple follow-up emails, of course).
Advice to owner:
Communication. That's all it takes.

it's ok, but expensive for what it is
Former Tenant
Pros:
Generally nice layouts, lovely rooftop, lots of sunlight with the windows, package room is nicely organized, the self-park garage is very useful and the spot sizes are ample, nice high ceilings
Cons:
the key function doesn't always work, management almost never responds and if they do it's weeks later, walls are thin, there is a consistent draft from the windows (especially feeling it now as the winter approaches), the fixtures are not that great (especially the sinks and the shower). when i moved in (discussed/planned the day & time with the super well before, etc), the apartment was unkempt and not ready.
Advice to owner:
better management response
