Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 520 East 14 Street emphasize its prime East Village location, providing easy access to public transit, grocery stores, and restaurants. Many tenants appreciate the responsive management team who address maintenance requests swiftly. However, the building overall is described as aging, with units needing significant renovation and often being dark and small. Persistent pest problems, particularly with mice and cockroaches, are a major concern that management struggles to fully resolve. Noise, especially from neighbors and the back patio, tends to impact comfort. While rent is considered reasonable by some, others find it overpriced given the condition. Quality of life varies depending on unit and management responsiveness.

Overall fine building

Pros

Cheap, management is responsive and fast with fixes.

Cons

Kind of gross and old. Issues with mice and cockroaches.

Former tenant·3 days ago

Its a start

Pros

I liked the location to the 1st Ave L train. But, it did feel away from the parts of the EV that I want to be at.

Cons

Its a lot of units in this building. Expect to hear your neighbors around you in all directions. I faced the back patio and dealt with parties late into the night keeping me up.
