Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews for buildings managed by Michael Roth reveal persistent issues with pest infestations, particularly roaches and rodents, alongside frequent complaints about unresponsive management and delayed maintenance. Many residents mention ongoing problems with heating, water pressure, and garbage management. Although some buildings benefit from good locations and friendly neighbors, the overall maintenance and security often fall short, with package theft and loitering cited as concerns. While a few tenants appreciate the superintendents and rent stabilization, the consensus urges improved responsiveness, structural repairs, and more effective pest control to enhance living conditions.

Reviews

Very unreliable management

Pros

It is a great location

Cons

Unreliable management. Roaches. Rats in walls. Lots of apartments have severe leaks. Have had hot water issues and heat issues. Packages get stolen.

Former tenant·9 hours ago

1655 Union Street could be so much better

Pros

Quiet apartments, clean, friendly neighbors

Cons

on going leak in all top floor apartment ceilings, that have not been addressed adequately. water pressure low and averages at least five minutes before water becomes hot. exterminator scheduled to visit during the week between 10am - 1pm when no one is home. loitering in front of building all hours of day and night by non residents.

Advice to the owners

The entire roof needs to be repaired completely not piece meal. water pressure needs to be addressed. schedule exterminator for weekends. address loitering by non-residents.
