Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant reviews of buildings managed by GOLONKA REALTY INC predominantly describe a difficult landlord-tenant relationship. Residents report rude, harassing behavior from the landlord who lives on-site, inconsistent enforcement of rules, and unfair practices such as wrongful security deposit withholding. Maintenance issues like pest infestations, old fixtures, erratic water pressure, and cleanliness problems are commonly noted. While locations are praised for being quiet and pleasant, management responsiveness is rated very low, with complaints of disrespect and paranoia. Prospective renters should be cautious, as multiple tenants advise avoiding dealings due to stressful and unpleasant experiences with management.

Reviews

Former tenant·24 minutes ago

Nightmare landlord experience

Pros

Very quiet apartment based on location

Cons

The other reviews have pretty much covered it, watch out for this landlord with a sneaky lease.

Former tenant·2 days ago

AVOID - Horrific Landlord

Pros

Nice street, great location

Cons

Absolute nightmare landlord. Probably one of the most difficult to deal with people I've ever encountered. Constantly sending harassing text messages and will absolutely try to steal your security deposit on your way out.

Advice to the owners

Be a more reasonable person. Stop treating all of your tenants like enemies of the state.
