188 2 EQUITIES CORP · avg 2.8 ★★★★★ · New York City

★★★★★Jul 2024

“Unit 17 Pros: location was great (plus the view from street facing windows and the roof) Cons: Always dirty, rodents in lower apartments, mail CONSTANTLY gets stolen, landlord wouldn't fix things that were broken even when we first moved in without some complaints. Management & maintenance had some good people but in general the building should have been kept up WAY better considering the price of units. Advice to landlord: get better locks for the two main front doors, so that its not super easy to break into the building with a credit card and steal packages”

★★★★★Aug 2023

“Pros: The location is fantastic on 2nd Avenue and 12th St. There is basically no noise as it's an air-shaft apartment. Cons: Air shaft means no natural light whatsoever. Garbage is thrown into a bin at the bottom of the airshaft which is kinda gross. It is taken out weekly but still weird.”

★★★★★Apr 2022

“Pros: Great location and room sizes, super is helpful when called Cons: Entry way is not always the cleanest, wish there was a virtual doorman since packages often get stolen, management is slow on responsiveness or does not answer requests, the pest control service is the worst and does not respond to requests unless you call more than 3 times. Bathroom could use an update, bug problem”

★★★★★Jan 2021

“Pros: Large entryway, classic New York building, gets really good light in most units, good layout Cons: Issues with both mice and roaches (exterminators never came), landlords are swindlers who will try to take all of your deposit Advice to landlord: All of the units need to be deep cleaned and have new appliances. And stop stealing security deposits”

★★★★★Jan 2021

“Pros: very nice neighbors and big living room Cons: not much natural light, pipes clog easily, no control over heat during the winter- they just turn it on when it’s cold, and the floors are slanted Advice to landlord: building needs more maintenance”

— 188 2 AVENUE · Manhattan
★★★★★Jul 2020

“Pros: Location, Large living space, large entry at first floor Cons: Needs updating, tiny bedrooms, mice issue for a bit Advice to landlord: Start renovating some of the older apmts”
