Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants of buildings managed by Christopher Orpheus generally find the properties well-maintained, clean, and staffed by caring and friendly personnel. Positive aspects include good sound insulation, well-kept gyms, and responsive pest control. However, some renters cite inconsistent heating, occasional amenities closures, and challenges with property managers, including unresponsiveness and poor communication during repairs or lease renewals. Complaints include occasional rent increases and dissatisfaction with how tenant complaints are handled in certain buildings. While many tenants recommend living in these buildings, management responsiveness and better tenant communication remain areas for improvement to enhance the overall rental experience.

Reviews

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

Fine apartment, cheap management

Pros

Apartment was perfectly fine and it's nice that there's a gym

Cons

The pool was closed most of the time for a swim school.

Former tenant·2 months ago

3 years and love it

Pros

The size of the studios are above average and it’s an updated pre war building. (Elevator). Laundry on 2 floors. (2 washer and 2 dryer total)

Cons

The boiler is in the building next door and the building has had inconsistent heat in the winter. Had to unionize the building to get them to fix it. Definitely mice in the building but more so in the walls than in the apartment themselves. I only saw one my first year and pest control was very responsive. I can still hear them in the walls sometimes though.

Advice to the owners

Stop raising the rent so high
