Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews of 194 East 2 Street praise its prime East Village location, friendly doormen, responsive management, and amenities like laundry on every floor and a rare outdoor terrace. Tenants appreciate the generally clean, well-maintained building with secure package handling and updated apartments. However, noise from parties, especially involving NYU students, and inconsistent doorman security have been concerns. The gym is widely regarded as subpar, and some have reported pest and plumbing issues, though these are often addressed promptly. Elevator delays and crowded common areas occasionally affect convenience. Overall, the building suits younger renters valuing location and community despite some noise and maintenance challenges.

Great NYC Starter Building

Pros

Packages are safe, sauna is nice

Cons

Gym is a joke, NYU kids throwing loud parties on the weekdays can be very annoying. I’ve had to report twice

Advice to the owners

Have “quiet hours” on the weekdays

Former tenant·5 months ago

Used to be better with old ownership

Pros

Great location, nice neighbors, updated basement gym

Cons

New ownership is not responsive, has done very cheap updates and refuses to hire more staff resulting in a much more crowded and expensive building that is dirtier and not well kept up. It can take weeks for management to do anything.
