Reviews

Clean living but old
Former Tenant
Pros:
Quiet, good location
Cons:
old, outdated, not clean common (c) openigloo area
Advice to owner:
update the apartments
525 Building
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great super after 2 that (c) openigloo were not very helpful. Solid (c) openigloo management who is pretty responsive. (c) openigloo Great neighbors as well, everyone (c) openigloo is friendly.
Cons:
A bit of a pest (c) openigloo problem that they are constantly (c) openigloo working on, but new super (c) openigloo has it more under control. (c) openigloo Heating is pretty aggressive in (c) openigloo the winter.
Advice to owner:
Need cameras in the package area or a better system when packages arrive. Have had multiple packages stolen over the last couple of years.
Okay Apartment - Building could be better
Former Tenant
Pros:
Quick to fix issues. Replaced (c) openigloo super during the year and (c) openigloo he has been much better.
Cons:
BUGS, Heat is super inconsistent.
Okay for the price
Former Tenant
Pros:
- Lower rent than many (c) openigloo other places (when I rented) - (c) openigloo 1 block from the east (c) openigloo river - Quiet neighbors who (c) openigloo keep to themselves
Cons:
- Pest issues - Initial (c) openigloo superintendent (later fired) was not (c) openigloo suited for the job - (c) openigloo Overall cleanliness of building was (c) openigloo not good
Just ok
Former Tenant
Pros:
The super was very nice, (c) openigloo although she definitely liked me. (c) openigloo It has an elevator (c) openigloo which is nice, even though (c) openigloo it's slow. The apartment (c) openigloo itself is a good layout (c) openigloo with a pretty decent bathroom (c) openigloo and kitchen.
Cons:
The heat is unbearable. (c) openigloo My AC had a thermostat (c) openigloo attachment and my apartment was (c) openigloo never below 82 degrees, whether (c) openigloo my AC was running or (c) openigloo it was the dead of (c) openigloo winter. The lobby of (c) openigloo the building is fully glass, (c) openigloo so all of the packages (c) openigloo can be seen from the (c) openigloo street. I assume this (c) openigloo has something to do with (c) openigloo why so many of my (c) openigloo packages were stolen that I (c) openigloo started shipping them to a (c) openigloo friend's apartment. Management was (c) openigloo completely unhelpful when I would (c) openigloo reach out to them about (c) openigloo better security. I even (c) openigloo found out they have a (c) openigloo camera and they still wouldn't (c) openigloo do anything about it!
Advice to owner:
Do a better job of listening to and acting on your tenant's legitimate complaints, rather than ignoring them and then expecting them to pay a higher rent every year.
Management unresponsive, old building
Former Tenant
Pros:
Super and porter are ok. (c) openigloo Super tends to ignore your (c) openigloo call but will get back (c) openigloo to you eventually
Cons:
Building manager is a lost (c) openigloo cause. Does not respond or (c) openigloo take any action. There's a (c) openigloo family on the second floor (c) openigloo that's extremely loud and leaves (c) openigloo their door open when they (c) openigloo cook. Some of the apartments/neighbors (c) openigloo are still using fuses instead (c) openigloo of a circuit breaker panel (c) openigloo which shows you how old (c) openigloo the wiring is
Advice to owner:
Clean the hallway/stairs more often. Bring the building to the 21st century with video doorbells.
No doorknob. Tons of mice.
Former Tenant
Pros:
Affordable rent I suppose
Cons:
Moved into my new apartment (c) openigloo and there was no doorknob (c) openigloo or lock. Called the super (c) openigloo and he gave me an (c) openigloo old screw driver to let (c) openigloo myself in and out of (c) openigloo the unit for the next (c) openigloo week. Also had to patch (c) openigloo holes all over the apartment (c) openigloo to help with the mice (c) openigloo problem. Super would also stop (c) openigloo by when he knew my (c) openigloo roommate was home alone and (c) openigloo tried to kiss her on (c) openigloo multiple occasions.
Advice to owner:
Hire some professionals, clean the building and teach the management company reps to speak to their tenants like human beings.
