Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews of buildings managed by 499 WASHINGTON LLC indicate responsive and reasonably attentive management, particularly praised for timely owner responsiveness and hiring competent maintenance staff. The buildings tend tohave satisfactory heating, water pressure, and pest control. However, garbage management and cleanliness can be inconsistent, with some tenants noting the need for repairs and better upkeep. The neighborhood presents challenges, including nearby drug activity and concerns about safety around the stoop area, affecting residents' comfort. While pricing is regarded as affordable, noise levels and occasional disturbances have been mentioned. Overall, management is viewed positively but could enhance responsiveness and building maintenance to improve tenant experience.

Not bad, not great.
Former Tenant
Pros:
They hire good handy people to fix things. They don’t raise the rent a lot. Roof access. Convenient to train. Corner deli is awesome. A couple people from management company are nice.
Cons:
Response time for maintenance issues is a little lacking, little to no night or weekend response. No live-in or on call super. Building neighbors are respectful, but building is **one block away from methadone clinic. Junkies are mostly harmless, but rude and always hanging around the corner/in front of the building in the morning** Could be cleaner.
