Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants of buildings managed by Aryeh Baraban generally praise the staff, especially doormen, for their friendliness and responsiveness. The locations are convenient, and many units offer good amenities like parking and pet-friendly policies. However, common issues include pest infestations, especially rats, that have been slow to resolve, and maintenance delays impacting heating and building repairs. Rent increases without significant improvements and occasional communication gaps in addressing resident concerns are also noted. Some buildings exhibit cleanliness and garbage management inconsistencies, while others suffer from infrastructure problems like drafty windows and noisy neighbors. Overall, management responsiveness varies greatly across properties.

Good Building and Location

Pros

Excellent doormen. Great location. On-site parking.

Cons

The basement floor had some flooding issues. This didn’t impact my apartment since I was on the top floor, but it’s something to note.

Former tenant·1 month ago

AMAZING front desk staff, great location, clean building (for the most part)

Cons

dirty gym, rooftpo is neglected, rent increases exponentially without any additional benefits

Advice to the owners
