Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Residents commend the friendly, attentive doormen and maintenance staff, and appreciate prompt service responses. The building benefits from a quiet environment with good neighbors in many cases. However, several tenants note the building's distance from subway stations and occasional noise, including elevator delays and hallway sounds.

Suggestions include improving management responsiveness, easing Covid restrictions, and adding child-friendly spaces like a playroom.

Former tenant·4 months ago

Great building, far from train

Pros

Had a great time living here. All appliances and amenities worked just fine, maintenance requests dealt with promptly, friendly door people, good communication with leasing office, relatively quiet, and lots of parks, coffee shops, restaurants etc nearby

Cons

Biggest con is distance from trains. Also wish they had a common space or lounge apart from the paid lounge in the gym below. They are transparent about this, but they are particular about floor damage upon move out. Since the floors are real hardwood, and scratches or stains will be a big chunk out of your security deposit so be careful with the floors
