Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants acknowledge decent responsiveness from some superintendents and appreciate amenities like laundry facilities and convenient locations. However, management's overall communication and maintenance responsiveness are inconsistent, with multiple reports of pest issues, insufficient heating, plumbing problems, and noise disturbances. Garbage management and building cleanliness vary across buildings, with some residents encountering rodent problems and unaddressed sanitation concerns. Several reviews mention problematic neighbors and safety concerns affecting quality of life. Prospective renters should expect uneven maintenance and management attention, with some positive staff interactions but notable challenges in upkeep and building environment.

Nice super, personable management company

Pros

Laundry in the building, great. The building super is very nice and responsive. When we decided to break our lease early, the building management company was willing to let us out without penalty if we found replacement tenants. We ended up staying for the entire duration of the lease, but appreciated that this option was on the table after I asked the management company if this was possible. The neighbors are friendly if you say hi when you see them regularly and get to know them.

Cons

There are old apartments and new apartments in this old building, so roaches can be an issue if you aren't clean. This is only a problem if you don't take out trash regularly, so this wasn't an issue for us. Also, lots of rats in the outdoor trash cans.
