Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback for buildings managed by Ben Ohebshalom reveals a mix of strengths and challenges. Many appreciate the prime Manhattan locations, clean and quiet environments, and generally responsive supers. However, consistent issues include pest control struggles, particularly with mice and roaches, frequent laundry room outages, and slow or inadequate responses from management in some cases. Some tenants cite aging infrastructure, such as broken doors, small apartments, and delayed maintenance on communal spaces. Noise is generally low, and neighbors are often described positively. While tenants value the buildings' potential and convenient sites, calls for improved upkeep, pest solutions, and enhanced communication are evident.
