Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback for 385 Vernon Avenue reveals significant challenges. While the building offers large rooms, decent water pressure, and proximity to transit, renters frequently cite severe management issues, including poor communication, unresponsiveness, and neglect. Heating problems, pest infestations (rodents and cockroaches), and safety concerns like break-ins and theft in parking areas are common. Construction noise and a lack of proper maintenance also detract from living conditions. Despite some positive notes about neighbors and the super, overall dissatisfaction with management and building upkeep leads most tenants not to recommend this property for long-term residence.

Reviews

Former tenant·3 months ago

385 Ver-mon BK

Pros

Great room sizes. Dishwasher. Water pressure and hot water. Washing machines are OK when they’re working.

Cons

Had a rodent issue for months in the winter. Fly issues in the summer. Not enough ventilation throughout the apartment. In winter freezes ..forget about heat. Management sucks. Be sure to review your lease and make sure they give you at least 30-90 day notice before terminating lease

Advice to the owners

Communicate better. Not responding is negligent.
