Review Summary for 241 West 13 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 241 West 13 Street highlight its excellent Manhattan location and spacious units as key benefits valued by tenants. The building is praised for clean common areas and friendly superintendents when present. However, recurring issues include persistent pest problems (especially mice), frequent laundry facility breakdowns, poor garbage management, inconsistent heating, and low water pressure. Noise insulation is noted as weak, with street and hallway sounds infiltrating units. Management and owner responsiveness receive mixed feedback, ranging from timely to unresponsive, with some tenants citing rent hikes and strict lease clauses under new management. Improved communication, pest control, and facility maintenance are commonly recommended.

Construction! Old Building
Former Tenant
Pros:
Excellent location for a decent price
Cons:
There was ongoing construction in the building which caused for loud noises, dirt, dust, and the occasional pest. The super is not very responsive.
Advice to owner:
Better super and more communications about construction
Over 1 year ago
No regard for tenants
Former Tenant
Pros:
This building is located in a fantastic area and many spacious units inside. While under previous ownership, there were no issues with management and the lease was reasonable with very few questionable clauses. They were flexible with the cost of rent and were easy to work with
Cons:
Arya Management has overhauled this building and increased the rent significantly, by at least $400/mo or more. Not only did they skyrocket rent costs, they do a terrible job at communicating and are completely unresponsive to the tenants. If you live here, expect the bare minimum from Arya. When offered a new lease, strict clauses were put into place that made other tenants and I question whether it was worth living in the building with owners who state these things. For instance, you must get landlord permission to change a shower head. Complete nonsense
Advice to owner:
Do better. Answer your tenants calls. Have a singular ounce of regard for the people who have lived here for years and consider the fact that this building is more than a cash grab.
