Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Reviews for buildings managed by Ylber Demaliaj reveal mixed experiences regarding management. Tenants appreciate good locations and friendly staff, especially doormen and superintendents, as well as the quality of some renovated and updated apartments. However, concerns persist about inconsistent desk coverage, delayed and sometimes inadequate maintenance, pest issues, and insufficient garbage management. Noise from neighbors and lack of comprehensive building upkeep, including lobby condition, have also been noted. Rent increases and slow owner responsiveness are additional points of dissatisfaction. Overall, while the staff is generally praised, there is clear room for improvement in maintenance timeliness, pest control, and building security measures.

Reviews

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

Love living here

Pros

Location to the subway and the park Majority of the staff is fabulous, super is great! Neighbors are nice and respectful. Many apartments are updated and have a washer dryer in unit.

Cons

There is NOT 24/7 desk coverage. The overnight person calls out a lot, they use a porter to cover desk shifts so they multi task. Often someone isn’t at the desk and the door is open to anyone. Can hear noisy neighbors through the wall. The building doesn’t regulate the 80% carpet rule in all apartments, some issue with noise.

Advice to the owners

Pay for temps to work the desk so the building has 24/7 service. Update the lobby, watermark stains down the walls from previous flooding.

Things Break Often, Management Greedy

Pros

It's a good location. Doormen are nice.

Cons

The building is poorly maintained. They will raise your rent beyond the market price. They will be slow to fix things and they will fix things badly.

Advice to the owners

Clean the walls in the lobby
