Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback for buildings managed by Derek Hsiang suggests a generally well-maintained and clean environment with strong garbage management and effective pest control. Tenants appreciate the convenient locations, peaceful atmosphere, and friendly community vibe, making these buildings appealing for students and young professionals. However, some concerns have been raised about management responsiveness, with reports of delayed repairs and communications perceived as passive-aggressive. Issues like low water pressure and occasional noise also appear, along with the absence of elevators in certain buildings. Overall, residents value cleanliness and amenities but recommend improvements in owner responsiveness and maintenance timeliness.

Great Setup for Student Life

The commute was a breeze, and the apartment was beautiful. The mix of shared and private spaces felt balanced, and the amenities were top-notch. It’s an ideal option for students.

Cons

I haven’t noticed any major downsides so far.

eaceful, Comfortable Stay

Pros

he building was easy to locate and the amenities provided are great. I'm glad I chose this as my long-term rental option! One unexpected bonus is how well I sleep here — in my previous place, I had trouble falling asleep most nights, but here it's been peaceful and comfortable.

Cons

Would be nice to have more frequent cleanings
