    Review Summary for 339 East 12 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews of 339 East 12 Street highlight its prime East Village location near popular spots and good neighbors. Tenants appreciate reliable heat, strong water pressure, and generally clean hallways. However, multiple reviewers report significant maintenance issues including pest infestations (cockroaches, mice, rats), poor garbage management, and inconsistent heat and hot water. Noise concerns relate largely to ongoing scaffolding and outdoor disturbances. Management responsiveness is seen as inconsistent, with some describing it as slow or unhelpful. Overall, while convenient and somewhat pleasant, the building struggles with upkeep and pest control, which prospective renters should consider carefully.

    Small apartment but good location
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great location near lots of popular spots in the East Village
    Cons:

    As far as east village goes, it’s pretty good
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    great location, walls are thick so i NEVER hear neighbors, short building across the street means plenty of light if you’re in the front part of the building. the super is very nice and is usually responsive. water pressure is great and heat is always on when necessary. hallways are kept relatively clean
    Cons:
    a few instances of cockroach problems (my apt has a balcony so could be that). the never ending scaffolding and workers outside my window is not great and has led to a very loud homeless woman living outside the building under the scaffolding.
    Advice to owner:
    fresh paint in the hallways, speed up construction to get rid of the scaffolding
