GBOverall experience Overall, I think Splitspot works well if you are persistent with issues. However, the initial quality of the service is not the best. When I first arrived to my apartment, a lot of appliances were broken and some electricity outlets not working. The cleaning service that they offer is very poor as well. I don't really feel a difference when the cleaning crew comes prior to a new roommate move-in. But, as mentioned, they finally solve problems after being patient and persistent.

GBAbsolute criminals Absolute criminals, they charge you a “convenience” fee on top of your rent, a $100 fee for “inspection” at move out. If the place isn’t clean to their liking they charge you $350. When we moved into our old place, it was absolutely destroyed by the prior tenants. Split spot claimed it was cleaned before us. When we arrived, it was just being cleaned. Our move in time was also delayed about 6 hours due to their negligence. Avoid them at all costs. Use a realtor

IENEVER Rent with SplitSpot Have never had customer service as poor as this before. Never received keys to the building, lock boxes were empty and no codes had even been provided. 6 weeks with broken AC during two 95 degree heatwaves in Boston and after 3 weeks all they did was reset the breaker, AC was never even fixed, I was just moved out. Was then charged for full utilities even with the broken AC, $75 out of my security deposit just to review the property even after photos of empty clean room were provided? Tours of the apartment with no notice given, and we were only informed of any visits after they would have come.

GBThere's a reason why splitspot is under 3 stars. Don't learn it the hard way. I've been with them for more than a year. They were fine before, but honestly, as of late, 90% of my headaches come from them. Terrible at getting back to you. Terrible at efficiently fixing problems. Their voice machine is broken. They won't fulfil their obligations with utilities - literally they forgot to pay for the wifi. Everyday I pray I don't get a Split Spot related problem. Don't be surprised if problems come up on their end and you have to deal with it. Some customer service reps are okay, but be careful if you talk more or ask too much about your problems because they have no qualms blocking you. Unprofessional in my opinon.

GBJust don't You're going to be looking for a place to live in Boston, DC, New York, wherever. You're going to see that a vast number of living spaces w/roommates are managed by this company. You're going to look up reviews and think the same thing I did. "There's no way they can be that bad, right?" And indeed, right. There's no one way Splitspot can be that bad, just a thousand different unexpected ways that will assail you throughout your time living at one of their properties. Lack of responsiveness, weird fees out of nowhere, lack of responsiveness, no legitimate or serious vetting of your roommates, being told to try nonexistent fixes for utility issues for days before someone was sent out (I can't push the red button under the sink because there is no red button under the sink), and did I mention the lack of responsiveness? You're going to try to rationalize the choice -- well, they have most of the listings in the city, they must be legit, right? Please don't make the same mistakes I did. The only reason this isn't 0 stars is because the site won't let me and the bathroom ceiling only started leaking brown goo a few weeks before I moved out, so comparatively it wasn't too much of a hassle. If you're desperate and think you can't do better, believe me, you can.
