Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants generally praise Alberto Smeke's buildings for their cleanliness, modern amenities, great location, and community feeling. The buildings offer conveniences like in-unit laundry, gym facilities, rooftop access, and a safe environment. However, challenges include thin walls causing noise, occasional pest issues (notably cockroaches), and some unresponsiveness or slow reaction from management. Several renters report disturbances related to transient tenants and use of units for short-term rentals, impacting neighbor relations and quiet. While the owner is commended for helpfulness and clean spaces, renters recommend more effective pest control, stricter tenant vetting, better noise enforcement, and improved communication for maintenance.

Reviews

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

The house is great

Pros

The house is great, and I really like my room — everything is comfortable and well thought out. The amenities are excellent, and having a gym is a big plus. The in-unit washer and dryer were a lifesaver, and I loved having my morning coffee in the shared backyard.

Cons

The walls are a bit thin, so you can occasionally hear neighbors.

Former tenant·3 weeks ago

The place is bright, well-located, and very safe.

Pros

The place is bright, well-located, and very safe. I always found quiet time to study, and the shared kitchen helped me connect with others.

Cons

Limited fridge space
