Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback for buildings managed by Kenneth Gerstenfeld reveals generally responsive and attentive management, with a particularly helpful live-in super. Residents appreciate clean communal spaces, timely attention to issues like heating and elevator maintenance, and efforts toward improving security measures such as adding package rooms. However, some concerns persist around occasional delays in repairs, issues with heating and dryers, and occasional noise or package theft. Pest control varies but is mostly adequate. Overall, tenants value clear communication and a friendly environment, though the management could enhance responsiveness and infrastructure upkeep to improve tenant satisfaction further.
