Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants consistently praise Matthew Berman's buildings for their cleanliness, well-maintained amenities, and responsive management, with quick maintenance turnaround and friendly, helpful staff including doormen. However, several reviews highlight issues such as slow or unreliable elevators, frequent and aggressive rent increases, and occasional maintenance problems with air conditioning and heating units. Noise and occasional disruptive neighbors are noted in some cases, though overall noise levels tend to be well controlled. Some tenants find the locations somewhat inconvenient for public transportation. While praise is common for building upkeep and communication, a few caution about management's handling of lease renewals and responsiveness to certain concerns.

Helena Building review

Pros

Management is responsive to maintenance requests and the building and shared amenities are clean and in good order

Cons

Elevators are slow and inefficient and often not working

Former tenant·2 weeks ago

Fantastic place to live

Pros

The doormen are wonderful and so helpful, maintenance is very quick to come when there are issues, and the gym and other amenities are all lovely. Our views are practically unmatched from our corner unit.

Cons

My air conditioning has broken many times, but they do always fix it quickyl.
