Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants consistently praise Douglas Crane's buildings for their prime locations, generally responsive management, and attentive superintendents who address maintenance and pest issues promptly. Buildings tend to be clean with good garbage management, and many apartments offer reasonable rents and spacious units. However, some challenges persist, such as occasional noise, thin walls, package theft, and aging building infrastructure. A few renters mention communication flaws and a need for improved security measures like video intercoms. While most tenants approve of the ownership and recommend staying, some express frustration with management responsiveness and cleanliness variability in certain buildings.

Reviews

Former tenant·5 minutes ago

Decent building, well located

Pros

Incredible location. Responsive handyman, decent older building with laundry in basement

Cons

In our unit, there was a gap between the window frame and wall that allowed a mouse to enter. This was addressed quickly with steel wool. Heat level is hard to control and can be noisy

Former tenant·10 minutes ago

Decent Mid-Range Bldg

Pros

My old bldg! Loved the neighborhood and nice neighbors. Elevator. Generally, a good experience. Positive memories.

Cons

Walls/floors thin especially on the first floor. U can hear everything and people can be mad disrespectful. The super was tricky, was kinda weird w/ younger women. Sometimes nice, sometimes mean. Also heads up: no video bell, or there wasn't... packages get stolen alllll the time. So solid bldg, but noisy, package issue & super

Advice to the owners

install video bell if you have not!
