Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant feedback for 500 METROPOLITAN OWNER LLC properties, particularly at 491 Keap Street, reveals a mixed experience. While the location and building cleanliness receive positive remarks, management responsiveness frequently falls short, with several tenants reporting slow or rude communication and unresolved maintenance issues such as inconsistent hot water and broken entry systems. Garbage management and pest control ratings vary but generally show room for improvement. Some tenants note disturbances from neighbors and noise. The management team is urged to enhance communication, timely repairs, and transparency about amenities. Despite challenges, a few tenants appreciate the responsive maintenance staff and central location, recommending the building for some.

Advice to the owners

Maintain the building

Former tenant·23 hours ago

Avoid at all costs

Pros

great view and close to the subway

Cons

management is horrible. If something goes wrong, don’t expect anyone to help. The key fob situation is a joke too, I’ve been locked out multiple times without notice, waiting hours to get someone to reactivate the key so I can enter my unit
