What does the “best-cleanliness” filter mean?

It’s a cleanliness-focused filter for Manhattan buildings based on what renters report and what Openigloo surfaces from signals tied to day-to-day cleanliness. Use it as a starting point, then review the specific comments on each building page.

How many buildings match this filter in Manhattan right now?

2,079+ buildings match the best-cleanliness filter in Manhattan (as of 2026-07-07).

Are cleanliness ratings a guarantee that every unit is the same condition?

No. Cleanliness can vary by unit, floor, and recent turn-over. Always read the most recent cleanliness-related notes and ask the building what you should expect during your move-in.

What should I ask before applying, since this is a cleanliness filter?

Ask about common-area upkeep, laundry and trash-area conditions, how quickly issues get addressed, and whether there’s a documented pest-control and sanitation process. If relevant, ask about odors, ventilation, and any recent maintenance that could affect cleanliness.

Do I need to worry about pest or sanitation concerns even if a building is highly rated for cleanliness?

Yes. A high cleanliness signal helps, but it does not replace direct verification. Request details from management and confirm what’s routine, what’s been addressed recently, and how they handle reports after you move in.

How should I use renter Q&A on Openigloo for cleanliness concerns?

Look for questions that match your priorities (e.g., common areas, laundry rooms, trash rooms, response times) and note whether answers reference specific practices. If something is unclear, follow up with the building directly.

What to check before for buildings highly rated for cleanliness in Manhattan

Expect cleanliness-oriented review themes (e.g., how common areas look, how promptly issues are handled). Use the building’s page to read specifics, not just an overall score.
Confirm the building’s cleaning and maintenance routines in writing (common areas, trash/recycling areas, laundry rooms, and any pest-control process).
Ask how complaints are logged and resolved: who responds, typical timeframes, and whether follow-ups happen after reported issues.
Check lease-moving costs and timing: deposits, move-in/move-out rules, and any fees tied to cleaning, access, or building documentation.
If you have allergies or accessibility needs, ask early about ventilation, humidity, and how the building handles odors, pests, or sanitation concerns.
