Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews of 18 King Street, Manhattan highlight its classic NYC building charm and prime location as key positives. Tenants enjoy good water pressure and responsive apartment managers for issues during regular hours. However, many note ongoing maintenance problems like outdated fixtures, water discoloration, mold, paint chipping, and unpleasant smells likely tied to poor upkeep. Pest concerns, including rats near outdoor trash, and noise from hallways and loud radiators detract from comfort. Storage and package security are insufficient, and owner's slow responsiveness to repairs frustrates residents. Overall, the building needs renovations and better management to improve living conditions despite its appealing location.
