Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 211 Avenue A highlight its prime Manhattan location and some units having good natural light and updated features. Rent-stabilized units offer affordability, but overall, tenants face persistent rodent issues like mice and roaches, poor garbage management with often overflowing trash, and inconsistent water pressure. Noise from nearby bars and thin walls disrupt quiet living. Management responsiveness is frequently criticized as slow or non-existent, contributing to unresolved maintenance problems including heating and security concerns such as package theft. While some tenants appreciate the space and location, the building struggles with cleanliness, pest control, and effective management, making it challenging for renters seeking comfort and reliability.
