Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants of 116 John Property Owner LP's buildings frequently praise the friendly, attentive front desk and maintenance staff and the overall cleanliness of the buildings. Residents value the well-maintained amenities such as gyms and rooftops, though some note the gym access became fee-based and suggested more transparency around amenity rules. The presence of short-term rentals operated by Sonder within the buildings is a consistent concern, causing disruptions, pest issues, and shared spaces that negatively affect long-term residents' experiences. Communication from management, particularly regarding rent increases and policies, has been criticized for lack of clarity and responsiveness. Overall, expect a clean building with helpful staff, yet be wary of management challenges and complications introduced by coexisting short-term rental operations.

Reviews

Former tenant·3 weeks ago

Overall great building, if on the pricey side

Pros

Management was pretty responsive, excellent staff Apartment was quite nice, although it was annoying to not have a full oven in the kitchen Very clean

Cons

Rent was very expensive for a relatively small 1BR, and the YoY increase was way too much

Former tenant·3 months ago

Beware this place is falsely advertised and mis represented

Pros

If you know your legal rights you’ll live happily and stress free if you don’t then prepare for a bunch of misconstrued facts and finger pointing despite whether you’re right or wrong in this building the only respectful people are the main front desk, maintenance staff, Super, and doorman everyone else is always frustrated and doesn’t want to be bothered

Cons

Sonder is an airbnb copycat operating as a hotel from floors 2-14 and they dont pay rent to the building owner either but they collect rent from the short and long term tenants in cash upfront which is selfish and unprofessional. Silverstein Properties blames Sonder and Sonder blames Silverstein Properties it’s a circle of confusion just know the roots are with Michael Levy “The Landlord” if you need to accomplish something write or call and ask to speak to him if you really want to get anything accomplished otherwise forget about it

Advice to the owners

“Michael Levy” do your job please, that’s all we’re asking nothing more nothing less. Get involved with what is going on in YOUR BUILDING
