Review Summary for 546 Main Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews reveal a building with mixed feedback. While some appreciate the responsive management, amenities like an Amazon locker and gym, and location advantages, others express concerns about persistent pest issues, hot water problems, roaches, and unfulfilled promises like gym completion. The building's cleanliness and maintenance seem inconsistent, impacting tenant satisfaction. Improvement suggestions include better pest control measures, timely repairs, and enhanced communication from management. Despite affordable rents and renovated units, ongoing issues like inadequate cleaning and pest problems need addressing to ensure a more positive living experience for tenants.

Decently okay, not for everybody
Former Tenant
Pros:
Management was responsive most of the time. Amazon locker + gym are a nice addition. New management seems to be making active improvements
Cons:
Pest problems, hot water went out a few months ago
Advice to owner:
Need more ways to get in and out of building besides the phone app

Ripping People Off
Former Tenant
Pros:
Spacious and well renovated apartments. They finally built the gym they’ve been telling us they’d build for years. Mostly quiet building in a nice neighborhood.
Cons:
They expect you to pay luxury apartment prices yet leave renters without hot water for weeks on end and have roaches crawling around the building - regardless of how clean you personally keep your apartment. The laundry rooms are constantly closed or the machines are out of service. People are moving out daily.
Advice to owner:
Stop driving up rent. People who think $3K for a 1 bedroom is cheap are not going to put up with roaches, no hot water, broken washing machines, and a myriad of other problems.
