— 230 EAST 44 STREET · Manhattan“Unit 3G Pros: Building was well maintained and the doorman are friendly and helpful. The gym and laundry in building are nice perks as well. Anytime something was broken it was fixed promptly. Cons: The ONE issue we had while we lived there was with mice. We had a mouse when we first moved in in September 2020, and several mice in April 2021. Each time management was helpful in getting the holes patched and providing traps but the garbage is stored in the basement which causes the mice issue. Advice to landlord: Garbage needs to be taken out more frequently and possibly not stored in the basement.”
