Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 250 Broome Street reveal a building with charming historic architecture and a prized Lower East Side location. Tenants commonly praise the good neighbors and some units’ cleanliness and renovations. However, many report persistent issues like inadequate heating, pest infestations, broken locks, garbage management problems, and slow owner responsiveness. Noise levels and water pressure receive mixed feedback, and several warn about small, overpriced apartments with misleading layouts. While the building’s aesthetics and neighborhood appeal attract residents, management inconsistency and maintenance shortcomings diminish overall satisfaction, suggesting potential renters weigh these factors carefully before committing.

Notorious Landlord of the LES (DNA info article)

Pros

Such a beautiful 1890-1920 building with wrought iron staircases and old tiled floors amidst such a beautiful neighborhood

Cons

Consistent no heat and hot water in winter. Rats in the trash. Reports of pests in other apartments. Leaks. These are old apartments that are lovely but have had only minor cosmetic renovations.

Advice to the owners

No advice. I am scared of them

Clean and new

Pros

My apartment was newly renovated when I moved in. The lobby area was always clean.

Cons

Although it was a nice apartment, I do think some units are overvalued and overpriced for the size (at least for my apartment in hindsight).
