Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews of 55 Delancey Street reflect mixed experiences. The building benefits from a prime location in the Lower East Side with decent-sized apartments and nice views. Some tenants praise quiet noise levels and attentive staff. However, recurring issues include inconsistent owner responsiveness, pest problems (cockroaches and mice), poor building maintenance, and problematic neighbor behavior with tenants sometimes using hallways as living space. Heating and water pressure vary, occasionally unsatisfactory, and cleanliness and garbage management are inconsistent. Security concerns and a lack of amenities like laundry and elevators also detract. While some recommend it for location, others advise management to address maintenance and tenant behavior for improved living conditions.

Reviews

Former tenant·2 months ago

Quaint but Problematic

Pros

nice views nice layout

Cons

super hard to get a hold of heat not controlled by unit lower floor neighbors leave doors open

Former tenant·3 months ago

Not horrible for a first apartment post-grad

Pros

You're in the heart of the LES and also accessible to plenty of subway lines

Cons

If you're on the first floor, you're above a pop up store that recently opened. Owner and super can be unresponsive unless you nag them. Homeless people are constantly loitering in the summer.
