    Review Summary for 918A Lafayette Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenants express dissatisfaction with the building's management, citing issues with cleanliness, pest control, and unresponsive landlords. While some acknowledge the pleasant neighbors and location, recurring problems with maintenance, heat control, and electrical issues detract from their experience. Suggestions for improvement include updated infrastructure, better pest management, and increased responsiveness from the management. While a few tenants appreciate the landlord's efforts, many ultimately choose to move out due to the building's shortcomings and unreasonable rent increases. The general sentiment leans towards caution for potential renters considering this location.
