Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Reviews

Former tenant·13 hours ago

Potential to be great with better management.

Pros

Friendly neighbors, pre-war apartments.

Cons

Dusty lobby and hallways. Parties / lots of noise in front of building. Lack of cleanliness in back common garden area of building. Leaks & lots of water damage in many of the apartments that management / owners do not properly fix or care of.

Advice to the owners

Take the time to actually fix the leaks in the building, have someone tend to the outdoor area / back entrance. Stop the gatherings with loud music in front of the property and this would be a great property.
