Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews of Kenneth Diamondstone's buildings reveal a mix of spacious, well-located apartments with large rooms and good natural light, some of which are rent-stabilized. However, tenants frequently report serious management issues including poor responsiveness, slow maintenance, and inadequate pest control, especially roaches and rodents near trash and vacant lots. Heating systems are often unreliable or noisy, and the quality of repairs is generally considered subpar. Cleanliness and garbage management receive average ratings. While some residents recommend living in these buildings for their size and location, many express frustration with the unprofessional management and advise improvements in communication, pest control, and maintenance responsiveness.

Reviews

Former tenant·10 minutes ago

Roaches, bad management

Pros

Big units, great location

Cons

Roaches everywhere, negligent management, heat did not work and was so loud

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Nice pre war apartments with incompetent management company

Pros

My apartment is spacious, lots of natural light and great layout. The furnishings are older but generally work fine.

Cons

The issue is when something does go wrong it takes the management comapny forever to do anything and acts extremely unprofessional.

Advice to the owners

Get a new management company, invest in another handyman or get professionals to do some required updates.
