Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Renters of HERSEL TORKIAN-managed buildings praise the properties for cleanliness, well-maintained apartments, and helpful superintendents and doormen. Many appreciate the convenient locations and modern amenities like gyms and laundry on each floor. However, management communication frequently faces criticism for slow or unresponsiveness, especially regarding maintenance issues and heating problems. Noise levels vary, with street-facing units reported as louder. Pest control is generally good but inconsistent in some buildings. Several tenants express frustration over management's handling of rent increases, tenant screening, and occasional misleading listings. Overall, tenants find the physical spaces appealing but often encounter challenges with management responsiveness and tenant relations.

Reviews

Former tenant·15 hours ago

Great apartment and convenience

Pros

Updated apartments and high ceilings are nice. Good amenities for a smaller building.

Cons

The apartments get no light and are very dark inside. There’s been a lot of construction noise with the building next door going up.

Former tenant·15 hours ago

Would recommend to a friend

Pros

Trash comes multiple times a week. Noise level with other tenants is good. No issues with rodents. Unit is VERY spacious and fairly priced

Cons

Can be noisy since unit is on 8th Ave if your building is street facing.
