Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews of 1280 Dean Street highlight a mix of benefits and challenges. Tenants value the prime location, friendly live-in super, and convenient elevator access. Neighbors are generally considered pleasant, with noise levels being moderate but occasional street noise noted. However, there are recurrent concerns about outdated building maintenance, pest issues (rodents and roaches), unreliable repairs, and occasional water outages. Management responsiveness receives mixed feedback, often criticized for being slow or neglectful. Safety has been questioned due to non-functional smoke detectors and frequent package theft. Tenants suggest investing in property upgrades, enhanced security measures like virtual doormen, and better pest control to improve living conditions.

Scammers and cheap

Pros

The super (Karl) keeps the building clean

Cons

Management is terrible. Has signs that says area is recorded but there's no cameras. Unresponsive most of the time. Doesn’t do a good job with repairs. They find the cheapest ways to fix problems you might have. Building is old and they can care less to updating it.
