Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant feedback for Marcelo Leon's buildings reveals a mixed experience. While management is generally responsive and the apartments have updated features with good water pressure and heating, issues with noise—often due to neighboring construction—and pest control are common. Cleanliness and garbage management ratings vary, reflecting some inconsistency in upkeep. Residents have noted unprofessional behavior from building staff and some inconvenience with additional service fees. Despite a few well-managed aspects, the buildings struggle with thin walls and pest problems, leading some tenants to advise management to improve maintenance and staff conduct for a better living environment.

Reviews

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

Noisy building, wouldn’t recommend

Pros

Updated units & good water pressure

Cons

Incredibly noisy building do not move here if you work from home the walls are paper thin and there are many roaches

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Do not recommend living here

Pros

Rent is cheaper than rest of UES

Cons

The super screamed at me and told me that it was my fault the entire lock in my door fell out when I tried to unlock it. I was locked out without a phone and he threatened to leave me there from afternoon until the evening (this was in October). The construction can be very loud. No laundry. Minor but annoying - charges small service fee to pay rent every month.
