Review Summary for 103 Mac Dougal Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Reviews of 103 Mac Dougal Street praise its prime location, rooftop, and some nicely renovated units, with friendly neighbors in a lively Manhattan neighborhood. However, persistent pest issues—mainly rats, mice, and roaches—are a major concern, exacerbated by poor garbage management. Tenants report inconsistent building cleanliness and occasionally weak water pressure and heating. A frequent criticism is the lack of responsiveness from the new management and ownership, with complaints about rent hikes and difficulty getting maintenance issues resolved. Noise can be high, especially facing the street, but quieter on the Minetta side. The building might suit those prioritizing location but expecting some trade-offs in maintenance.

Pros:
Location, nice common areas, rooftop
Cons:
MICE MICE MICE. It took years to get rid of the mice. They send a half ass exterminator, and the super is the best but there is only so much he can do.
