WEST 34TH APTS CORP · avg 3.3 ★★★★★ · New York City
“Pros: Doormen were present and helpful. Fairly quiet spot in the city. Cons: Some pests but they treated the building regularly. Management could be a bit slow to respond and did the bare minimum”
— 455 WEST 34 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: The building tends to be quiet even though it is in a noisy neighborhood. Dogs are allowed (but not via the standard lease). Lovely coffee shop at ground level. Cons: The laundry room in the basement is in bad shape (low-quality machines, wet floors). Scaffolding for years and ropes from the roof.”
— 455 WEST 34 STREET · Manhattan“Unit 5E Pros: Cheap, lots of space, doorman Cons: Roaches/ bed bugs, Mold, Bathroom ceiling caved in. Advice to landlord: RESPOND TO PEOPLE”
— 455 WEST 34 STREET · Manhattan“Unit 4G Pros: The building was well kept, never had any pest issues or technical issues. Cons: Location is not the BEST, but is close to subways and public transport which is great”
— 455 WEST 34 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: - location - elevator building - trash room - laundry in building - doorman security for packages Cons: - staff / owner can be very rude and argumentative - the apartment unit has the basics, but a lot of cosmetic issues (e.g., loose doorknobs, chipping paint on doors and walls, scratched up kitchen floor, scratched up toilet and bathtub) - no dishwasher or microwave - building basement appears quite rundown”
— 455 WEST 34 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Elevator and laundry machines worked well, could sign up for pest control once a month, walls were good for noise isolation/no noise from neighbors/couldn’t even hear my roommate most of the time Cons: Some of the doormen are rude, everything was done on paper (complaints, maintenance) and seemed disorganized and you didn’t have your own record of submitting them, shower water pressure wasn’t great”
— 455 WEST 34 STREET · Manhattan“Unit 17G Pros: Washer and drier in basement, most doormen are nice and helpful Cons: Construction from Hudson Yards goes on at all hours of the day and night. Building also has a lot water bugs and roaches, water has a constant leak in the shower for over a year, lots of black mold in the shower and walls. Advice to landlord: Shower needs to be fixed and regrouted more frequently”

— 455 WEST 34 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Easy access to 7 line. 24/7 doorman. Elevator. Good water pressure. Cons: The cockroaches are out of control and HUGE. Pest control has not improved the situation and they are a constant presence despite all measures. Advice to landlord: Require spraying in all apartments. Or decrease the rent”
— 455 WEST 34 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Doormen are nice, there’s an elevator, good location Cons: There are roaches and the apartment layouts are odd, management isnt great.”
— 455 WEST 34 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Building units are a good size, laundry room is clean, trash is removed daily, pets, doormen and people are friendly Cons: The building management is completely disorganized and frankly incompetent. They have lost checks and important documents, then blamed me. They do not communicate with each other and it leaves things very confusing for tenants. The super is non existent and building maintenance has been done, without notice, resulting in excruciating sounds, which is very difficult when working from home. Advice to landlord: Implement building processes for communication between management and tenants. Employ a super who is readily available to deal with issues and does not disappear during his set hours of availability.”
— 455 WEST 34 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: The location was good, and the ceilings were high. Cons: Management was absolutely terrible. Maintenance issues were constant. My roommate had frequent ceiling leaks and rather than repairing it properly, the super just cut out the damaged piece of sheetrock and replaced it, leaving my roommate to have bits of wet ceiling fall on her in the middle of the night. Whenever he did work he also left the place a mess and half assed every job he did. I ended up having to fix some plumbing work he did myself. The management office is no better and are incredibly rude. They also failed to send the security deposit back on time, taking nearly a month when the law requires it be sent within 14 days of vacating the property. Advice to landlord: Get a new management company.”
