Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 287 Linden Boulevard highlight affordable, spacious apartments with charming pre-war details and pet-friendly outdoor spaces. Rent stabilization offers price advantages. However, persistent cleanliness issues, poor garbage management, and pest problems like mice and bugs are frequent concerns. Tenants report frequent loitering, smoking, and noise in shared areas, affecting safety and comfort. Heating and water pressure are generally adequate, but maintenance responsiveness is inconsistent, with some management communication challenges. Despite drawbacks, many renters appreciate the value and apartment size, recommending improvements in building cleanliness, pest control, and security to enhance living conditions.

Reviews

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

Pretty dirty, and there’s always people hanging out in the lobby

Pros

It’s cheap, and the apartments themselves aren’t completely awful.

Cons

It’s very dirty, they don’t clean anything ever. There’s also people that hang out in “lobby” area every single night, smoking and drinking. Idk why they don’t just hang out in their apartments? I also have seen a few mice and we just moved in not long ago.

Advice to the owners

Clean the building, and maybe hire professional painters bc the painting is awfully done in the apartments.
