Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews of buildings managed by Mario Velez reflect a strong emphasis on cleanliness and well-maintained common areas with very friendly and helpful doormen and staff. Tenants consistently appreciate responsive and attentive management that addresses issues quickly, enhancing their sense of safety and care. However, some concerns persist around outdated apartment fixtures, occasional noise due to thin walls, and a gym in need of updating. Rent negotiations can be challenging as management is firm on renewals and pricing. Overall, residents value the convenient location and supportive building personnel, though improvements in apartment modernity and shared facilities could further elevate tenant satisfaction.

Great building and location

Pros

I’ve lived here for many years and have always felt taken care of and safe. I’ve never had a package issue and the doormen are the best

Cons

very thin walls, one of the staff members is a little skeevy. Building management will NEVER negotiate on rent renewal despite the fact multiple units were open for many months and they ultimately had to hire brokers to fill

Former tenant·5 months ago

Quiet Murray Building

Pros

In a quiet area in midtown. Close to grand central. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Cons

Building used to be an old hotel so some appliances and fixtures are dated.
