Impolite Office Workers

Pros

All reported issues are dealt with in a timely manner.

Cons

Been living in this building for 25+ years. When management office is called to report apartment issues for maintenance their office staff always has a way of talking to you in a very condescending and bothered tone. It’s very off putting. Building superintendent and his workers also do horrible quick fixes and undermine you as a tenant of your own apartment.

Advice to the owners

More effort should be placed on how maintenance issues are handled and fixed. There should be a higher standard and be respectful of peoples living spaces. Frequent floor cleanings such as mopping should be done in the building as the last superintendent did. You can see stains and smudges on the floor due to lack of cleaning.
