“Pros: The location and price were great, big bedrooms with closets. Cons: Management sucks. Seriously. The buildings is really breaking down and management blames you. I had over $3000 worth of furniture/linens/rugs damaged by a leak and they didn't show up to fix the leak for several days. the heat never worked, there were mice EVERYWHERE (even after the exterminator came several times). A window just fell out once and glass shattered everywhere, the landlord didn’t fix it for 4 months. The trash “room” (a closet full of rats) was located on the first floor and the lobby reeked. Maybe that’s where all the mice came from? Advice to landlord: condemn the building honestly.”

Front door is not secure and key didn’t always work due to faulty sensor. Heating unit hissed and leaked scalding hot water throughout entire winter. Poorly managed garbage. Very unresponsive super. Advice to landlord: Change the front door!!!! Invest some money in renovating the building”
— 165 BLEECKER STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Good location, fine amount of space. Cons: - Ceilings fell in - Water leaks - Black mold - Paint peeling and bubbling from mold and moisture - Major mice and cockroach problem - Uncontrollable horrendous heat - Gas leak AND Carbon Monoxide leak - Unresponsive, lazy super even in an emergency (i.e. bathroom ceiling falling in). - Extremely poorly managed building. Trash everywhere in lobby, every day. - Jenky system that opens door to the building not to code and caused regular lockouts. - Had 311 on speed dial...list goes on. Every week it was something new. Horrifying experience. Do not live here. Advice to landlord: Hire a new super, gut renovate your apartments using a professional contractor to fix all mold and structural issues, eliminate the rodent problem, install a new building front door system, properly screen tenants, regularly clean the building.”

Advice to landlord: Hire new super, be more responsive, renovate properly, get the rodents under control.”
