Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 216 East 10 Street commend the building's spacious apartments and prime East Village location, offering good value for the price. Tenants appreciate quiet surroundings and generally friendly neighbors. However, persistent pest problems, particularly with mice and roaches, are a significant concern despite multiple exterminator visits. Maintenance and management responsiveness receive mixed feedback, with some reporting slow or unorganized service and inconvenient rent payment processes. Cleanliness and outdated facilities also draw criticism. Suggestions include improving pest control efforts, enhancing building maintenance, and adding amenities like bike storage to improve tenant satisfaction.

Nice Building and Unit, Just Major Pest Problem
Former Tenant
Pros:
We loved this apartment, it was a great price for the size, there were windows in every room (including the bathroom and kitchen.) The neighborhood is definitely worth the money, its literally in the most perfect spot in the east village.
Cons:
At least our management did not accept e-payments, only physical checks that had to be dropped off at their office on the next block or mailed to them. We were also only given physical keys to open up the front two doors, even though everyone else in our building had key jobs that unlocked the doors for them. And finally, there was an enormous mouse problem during the last eight months of our two year lease. Once construction in the building started on the floor below us, we had an entire family of mice move into our apartment and nest in our couch. We had an exterminator come FIVE times to the unit and the problem next went fully away. We had them fill every possible hole we could find, and they were still getting the place. Also, when the problem originally started, the management almost didn't send an exterminater because they "offer" exterminator visits on the first saturday of every month and we had missed that by a week. However, I want to note that twice over those eight months, we had signed up for just a monthly exterminator visit and no one showed up. So we contacted managment and made them bring someone in because the problem was getting so bad.
