Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant feedback for buildings managed by Joel Goldstein reveals a pattern of significant management and maintenance challenges. While some appreciate the modern amenities and location benefits, many report persistent heating issues, unresponsiveness from management, and poor upkeep of communal areas like rooftops and gyms. Safety concerns, thin walls, and frequent construction disturbances further detract from living experiences. Complaints about misleading advertising and problems with water quality, pest control, and security are also common. Overall, tenants emphasize a lack of timely communication and problem resolution, advising potential renters to be cautious and seek rent adjustments due to ongoing difficulties.

Reviews

Only ok if you’re appliances are running ok

Pros

As long as your appliances and heat are running, the place is fine to live in.

Cons

There is SO much that needs to be improved here. The owner needs to be more responsive to tenants. Many are struggling with heat issues in freezing temperatures outside and not a single technician has been in to fix the issue. Ongoing issues like this for months. The rooftop is not well maintained, the cushions are very dirty. The machines in the gym are not well maintained either.

Advice to the owners

Please be more responsive to tenants living here

Former tenant·3 months ago

Modern building with nice amentities

Pros

I think that the building was quite nice, felt modern. The AC, washer/dryer in-unit, and nice gym and sauna were a nice perk.

Cons

There's not much I can think of, as I was only here for a short time.
