Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 477 St Johns Place reveal a well-located building with friendly neighbors and convenient access to transit and neighborhood amenities. However, multiple tenants report severe maintenance issues, including pervasive bedbug infestations, mold, and plumbing failures. Cleanliness, garbage management, and pest control are consistently rated poorly. Tenants also cite unresponsive and neglectful management, with complaints about withheld security deposits and unresolved repairs. Many describe the owner as a slumlord, urging improvements in maintenance and tenant treatment. Despite the good location and community atmosphere, the building's ongoing health and safety problems and poor management greatly diminish its desirability.
