Review Summary for 605.Rugby Road LLC
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Tenants of 605.RUGBY ROAD LLC buildings frequently cite the prime location and responsive management as notable positives. However, cleanliness and garbage management are consistent areas of concern, with reports of dirty common areas, poorly maintained trash zones attracting pests, and neglected building upkeep. Heating generally works satisfactorily, but pest issues and uninviting outdoor spaces persist. Although some renters appreciate the landlord's responsiveness, others have suggested more active maintenance and better security measures, such as gating the garbage area. Overall, prospective tenants should expect convenient locations but prepare for maintenance challenges and a need for improved cleanliness and pest control.

Dirty, dirty, dirty
Former Tenant
Pros:
The location is very close to the train station and other shops making it very convenient.
Cons:
So dirty. I can overlook the common areas never being cleaned but throwing out the garbage in the alley is taking a chance on tripping over the narrow and dirty steps to go in the alley, bumping into a random homeless person or drug addict, getting attacked by flies and rats, or stepping in poop/vomit/garbage. The heat was intense in the winter but better than no heat I guess.
Advice to owner:
Clean the common areas, and put a locked gate to the garbage area

Dirty, poorly maintained building
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great location, 1 block from subway. Nicely renovated apartment. That's about it.
Cons:
Came to view a vacant apartment. The apartment itself was renovated and nice, but the building is absolutely run down. The building door paint is peeling and tagged with graffiti. Dingy dim yellow lighting, scratches and streak marks covering all hallway walls, loose tiles in the stairwell...it felt like a horror movie. The courtyard is full of garbage and rotting construction materials AKA rat & roach heaven. No live in super (apparently they live a few blocks down) but I doubt they are active after what I had seen. Makes sense why the apartment was listed so cheap. AVOID.
Advice to owner:
Fix up the building!
