Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Reviews for 751 Dekalb Avenue reveal a mix of positives and serious concerns. Tenants commend the spacious apartments, central air/heat, laundry facilities, and some well-maintained common areas. The location near transit and parks is appreciated. However, multiple reviews highlight severe management issues including slow or unresponsive maintenance, broken laundry machines, ongoing pest infestations, frequent package thefts due to faulty security, and illegal basement rentals leading to poor living conditions. Noise levels and thin walls also disturb residents. While a few approve of the landlord and recommend staying, the consensus stresses the need for urgent improvements in safety, maintenance responsiveness, pest control, and building security for a better tenant experience.
