Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Renters frequently report unresponsiveness from the landlord, especially regarding maintenance requests and security deposit returns. Persistent pest issues such as roaches and mice, poor cleanliness, and inadequate garbage management are common complaints.

Reviews

Former tenant·2 hours ago

No building management

Pros

The people who live in the building are nice.

Cons

There is no building management. No cleanings, no maintenance, nothing at all. Thousands of 311 violations and they do not care.

Advice to the owners

Even a little bit of care would do wonders for this building. The lack of care really shows and is felt by everyone who lives in the building.
