Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for buildings managed by Edwin Cruz reveal a generally positive living experience characterized by clean and well-maintained premises with friendly and diverse neighbors. Many tenants praise the responsiveness of the management and the quality of amenities like gyms and rooftop gardens. However, some concerns arise around occasional slow maintenance, issues with elevators and laundry facilities, and restrictive unit transfer policies. Rent can be high, especially for waterfront views. Suggestions for improvement include enhancing laundry services, better elevator maintenance, and more equitable unit transfer rules to accommodate long-term tenants. Overall, management is viewed as mostly attentive but with room for operational improvements.

Reviews

Former tenant·16 minutes ago

Grateful to live here

Pros

The view is incredible. Building management is responsive. The units are spacious and beautiful. Save from the resident complainers, most of the neighbors I’ve met are lovely and happy to be here.

Cons

It can be hard to get off a waitlist for a bigger unit (eg, if you are in a studio and awaiting a 1 bedroom, or if you have kids and need to upgrade to a 2 bedroom).

Beautiful Place but Management Leaves Little to be desired

Pros

Beautiful neighborhood. Pet friendly. Rooftop garden.

Cons

“Terrible management. Unresponsive to tenant concerns, slow (or nonexistent) maintenance, and a complete lack of accountability. They prioritize profits over residents, making even simple requests a frustrating experience. If you’re looking for a landlord that actually cares, look elsewhere.

Advice to the owners

Treat all tentants fairly.
