    Review Summary for 366 S 5 St
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews highlight the building's management responsiveness, neighbor quality, and heating efficiency as positive aspects. Tenants appreciate the clean units and convenient location. However, concerns are raised about occasional pest issues, noise levels, and unresponsive staff. One review describes severe maintenance issues, including crooked renovations and gas leaks, leading to legal action. Suggestions include improved communication and ethical practices. Despite some positive aspects, the building faces significant challenges in maintenance and owner accountability, making it less recommended for potential renters seeking a hassle-free living experience.

    Decent management, no issues
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    - Relatively clean building
    - Can't speak for all units, but my unit had new appliances and is well kept.
    - Super responds within reasonable timeframe for maintenance requests
    - Mgmt company sends reminders for late payments, didn't charge me late fee until I was 2 weeks late once
    - On 4th floor and have had no issues with mice, bed bugs, etc.
    Cons:
    - Get the occasional cockroach, but nothing too out of hand.
    - The hallways and steps can be better maintained. Only gets swept every couple months
    - Packages get stolen a lot here so you have to be alert about your deliveries
    - The garbage outside gets really messy because of dumpster divers, so the curb kinda looks gross at times
    Advice to owner:
    Improve sidewalk maintenance
