Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 283 Albany Avenue indicate spacious apartments with ample natural light and amenities like a gym and laundry facilities. The building offers a quiet environment and friendly neighbors, contributing to a generally pleasant living experience. However, management responsiveness is inconsistent, with numerous complaints about pest issues, package theft, and maintenance delays, especially concerning heat and appliances. Garbage management and cleanliness vary, and some renters note noise disturbances linked to specific tenants. Rent increases and management practices also draw criticism. Despite these challenges, the building remains appealing for its size, location near transit, and amenities, but prospective renters should be aware of ongoing management and pest control concerns.

Shamco Management review

Pros

People are mostly quiet, the super is mostly responsive, the heat always works, there is lots of natural light in the building, the gym is pretty good.

Cons

The dryers never work, the location is mid (not a lot of cafes, restaurants directly nearby), rent increased by 9% year to year, you have to pay to lock your bike inside.

Advice to the owners

Reduce the increase in cost year to year since nothing improved in that time. Please fix the dryers.
