Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 277 Classon Avenue highlight a well-maintained building with prompt and warm management, responsive maintenance, and good heating. Tenants appreciate features like central air, in-unit laundry, roof access, and proximity to transit. However, concerns include inconsistent cleanliness and garbage management, occasional water pressure issues, thin walls leading to noise transfer, and smaller-than-expected apartment layouts with limited natural light and kitchen counter space. Rent increases have caused dissatisfaction among some residents, alongside mixed experiences with landlord responsiveness. Overall, the building appeals to those valuing maintenance and location but may pose challenges regarding noise, rent stability, and apartment size.

Good apartment building, good management.

Pros

The building is well maintained, maintenance requests are quick to be resolved, the management is warm. No issues with heat or hot water.

Cons

We did have slight issues with water pressure. There was also a hole in the shower ceiling that formed a couple times, but management was quick to get it resolved.

Bad landlord, ok apartment

Pros

Central air and laundry in unit were nice but utilities were high because inefficient appliances. Natural light was good

Cons

Smart management raised my rent at 277 Classon from 3,350 to 4,000 over 2 years (20% !). We offered to re-sign at 3,650 and they rejected us and listed it for rent on Streeteasy at 3,650 the next day. Why not give the current tenants the opportunity to sign at the price you list online unless you think they cannot afford to move (price gouging!) or you raise rent based off the income provided in their application (discrimination!)?
