Overall 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.

Inhumane living situations FILTHY apartment. The house I live in has NEVER been deep cleaned, there are even hair from previous tenants stuck to the walls. CRAZY expensive for what it is. Damages are not taken care of (they send YouTube videos instead of professionals) and we also have a massive rodent problem - they said they would send an exterminator, guess what, somebody came and put up ONE (!) additional trap… no serious solution to the problem! The company does not care at all that people are living in inhumane housing situations. I am considering taking legal actions against SplitSpot mainly because of the health concerns that come with the housing. Please spread the word that people should avoid SplitSpot as much as possible!

Just 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.

They kicked me out of my apartment mid lease Only use SplitSpot as a last option when you need a place ASAP and can't find anything. I had a year lease with them and when my other roommates were moving out SplitSpot kicked me out with 2 weeks notice to pick one of their other available apts to move in to MID LEASE. (They write into your lease that they are allowed to do this so you have no recourse) Not only that but theyre completely incompetent with support. I had issues that took me emailing weekly for a month for them to finally send someone out to fix. The worst property managers I've experienced in Boston without question.

Great roommate matching They have a really good process for finding roommates for someone new to the city - the people i'm living with are great. The quality of the apartment is ok - but not really something splitspot handles. Landlord is responsive tho
