244 EAST 78 REALTY ASSOCIATES LLC · avg 3.7 ★★★★★ · New York City
“Pros: Its a quiet walk up in a safe neighborhood close to the 6 and Q trains and quaint historical restaurants and cafes Cons: I've had a mice issue for the past 2 years that I've lived here. I live in a much older unit and they also refuse to turn the gas on so I have had to live without a working oven. Its kind of a nightmare but its safe and affordable for the area in my 1 bedroom that I managed to snag. Advice to landlord: Listen to tenants, act quickly!”

— 244 EAST 78 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Quiet, clean, safe. Cons: The rent was a little high.”
— 244 EAST 78 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Closet space Large windows Decent sized bedrooms (some can run quite large, others on the smaller side) Pest control has scheduled monthly visits to the building Cons: A couple of roaches seen (expected on first floor) Mice-There are definitely mice in the building. Over three years we’ve seen 3 in our apartment. Maintenance is responsive about bringing someone in to patch the holes..you just have to find them.”

— 244 EAST 78 STREET · Manhattan“Unit 2B Pros: Great water pressure Pest control company and carpenter are nice Cons: roaches and mice”
— 244 EAST 78 STREET · Manhattan“Unit 1C Pros: Location (close to the train, grocery, laundry etc), virtual doorman Cons: So many rats, heat is sweltering hot (had to sleep with windows open all winter bc it was unbearable and ended up sick a lot as a result), loud- ppl are in and out of the main doors which slam loudly all night long, rent renewal at over 75% increase, somehow “lost” My security deposit ( a certified check). Advice to landlord: No one is going to pay $2800/month for a studio apartment in a non luxury/no amenity building. Install sound barriers or blockers on the front doors.”
— 244 EAST 78 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: This building is pretty clean, generally kept up well, neighbors are friendly and respectful, video doorman no pests, and no issues with mail/packages. Cons: No laundry in building (I believe some units have in unit but mine does not), the garbage out front of the building is a bit of an eyesore, management and maintenance can be a little hard to get to at times.”
— 244 EAST 78 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Well kept and safe Cons: Never saw bugs or mice but could hear animals running around on my ceiling at night”
