Reviews

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

525 Building

Pros

Great super after 2 that were not very helpful. Solid management who is pretty responsive. Great neighbors as well, everyone is friendly.

Cons

A bit of a pest problem that they are constantly working on, but new super has it more under control. Heating is pretty aggressive in the winter.

Advice to the owners

Need cameras in the package area or a better system when packages arrive. Have had multiple packages stolen over the last couple of years.
