Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 21-81 38 St, Queens highlight a building with clean, spacious units and a responsive super, praised for quiet neighbors and good water pressure. The location near Ditmars Avenue is convenient, contributing to its appeal. However, some tenants report occasional pest issues and noisy nightlife nearby. Management shows mixed responsiveness: while the super is praised for quick action, the landlord has been described as unresponsive and occasionally untrustworthy, leading to delayed repairs and lease complications. Package theft and maintenance concerns also arise. Overall, the building suits renters valuing space and neighborhood vibe but calls for improved landlord communication and maintenance consistency.
