Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback for buildings managed by Lin Dekaj highlights a strong presence of responsive and attentive superintendents who contribute positively to resident satisfaction. While residents praise the great locations and friendly neighbors, issues such as pest control—particularly roach infestations—and inconsistent maintenance response persist. Garbage management tends to be well-handled, but some concerns exist about cleanliness and building upkeep, including drafty windows and occasional plumbing noises. Suggestions for improvement include better pest extermination efforts, more diligent follow-up on maintenance requests, and security enhancements like virtual doormen. Overall, management shows care but would benefit from addressing persistent infrastructure and pest challenges more proactively.

Reviews

Former tenant·2 days ago

Fine but not great

Pros

great location and responsive super

Cons

had a roach infestation and it seemed to be apartment-wide

Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

tiny apartment, great location

Pros

location, bay windows in bed room, natural light in bedrooms, water pressure is good, only 4 apartments on each floor so felt quiet, rarely heard neighbors, trash emptied frequently downstairs, never seen bug or rat down by trash, neighbors in apartment are all different ages and super friendly, stayed for 4 years so ultimately couldn't have been that bad despite having more cons than pros

Cons

unresponsive super for actual issues, had cockroaches for first 2 years lived here until we paid for Orkin ourselves to get rid of it (2 years without them after this), building sent multiple exterminators that didn't help but one does come at the start of each month now, required to submit maintenance requests to get things fixed in apartment and sometimes no one comes so we have to follow up multiple times, no washer/dryer, no dishwasher, sink gargles and makes weird noises and we've asked for them to fix it and they've sent multiple people and nothing has changed, no virtual doorman on the outside door which causes issues with packages stolen or door lock breaking and not being a lock but they started putting packages more hidden behind stairwell

Advice to the owners

actually listen to your tenants about issues and follow up to see if they're fixed instead of ignoring them, look into getting dishwashers in the units (would decrease turnover i promise you), update locks on doors so people stop getting locked out, add virtual doorman system
