What does “best-cleanliness” mean on Openigloo?

It’s a filter built from cleanliness signals associated with the building in Openigloo’s review data. Open the building page to review the specific cleanliness notes behind the score and look for patterns you care about.

How does the M5 bus filter work here?

This scope is limited to buildings along the Manhattan M5 bus area used by the filter. Use the building page address and map view to confirm the actual walking route and accessibility for your commute.

Do cleanliness ratings guarantee how a specific apartment will be?

No. Cleanliness ratings typically reflect building experience (common areas and general upkeep). A unit’s condition can still vary between turnovers, so ask about the current state and your planned move-in timeline.

What should I ask the super or leasing office before applying?

Ask about cleaning routines for lobbies/hallways, how trash and recycling are handled, laundry-room upkeep, and whether there have been recent issues (odor, pests, overflowing bins) and what changed.

Is “best-cleanliness” based on NYC open records?

Openigloo uses review-based signals for the cleanliness filter. Some building details may come from open-data sources, but cleanliness ranking itself is driven by tenant experience signals; ask the building directly for the latest conditions.

How do I compare buildings if cleanliness feedback is mixed?

Compare recurring themes (for example: trash overflow, hallway sanitation, laundry maintenance) rather than one-off comments. If most feedback is about the same problem, treat it as a red flag even if the overall rating is high.
