Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews of buildings managed by Rubin Margules reveal mixed experiences across locations. Tenants commonly praise spacious apartments, scenic views, and quiet neighborhoods with mostly friendly neighbors. The building staff and supers are often described as responsive and helpful. However, pest issues, especially roaches and mice, frequently trouble residents, alongside concerns about outdated facilities and recurring maintenance problems, such as elevator outages and noisy radiators. Garbage management generally fares okay but cleanliness and heating quality vary. Water pressure inconsistencies and noise insulation shortcomings appear occasionally. Overall, management responsiveness is seen as middling, with calls for better upkeep, security improvements, and infrastructure upgrades to enhance tenant satisfaction.

Great Neighborhood, Needs Upgrades

Pros

Nice big apartments, beautiful views onto Riverside, responsive super.

Cons

Bug problems, the elevator goes out more often than I would like, packages get taken (especially during the holidays), the stairs are somewhat suspect...

Advice to the owners

Get an area in the lobby where packages can go and be safe! Update the stairs, the treads are very worn...
