Review Summary for 408 8 Avenue
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Tenants at 408 8 Avenue highlight its convenient Manhattan location, on-site doorman services, and spacious units as significant benefits. The building maintains relatively good garbage management and offers amenities like laundry and elevator access. However, multiple reviews report issues with persistent pest problems, noise from nearby establishments, outdated and dirty conditions especially on lower floors, and slow or insufficient maintenance response. Heating and water pressure inconsistencies are noted, alongside concerns about security due to doormen occasionally allowing unauthorized entry. While some residents appreciate the management's efforts, others find communication and responsiveness lacking. Prospective renters should weigh the location and size against these maintenance and noise drawbacks.

pretty decent spot - good value for what you pay
Former Tenant
Pros:
Convenient and accessible is number 1. Every night the waste bins get cleared out which keeps pests away. Doormen on rotation are friendly and keep the lobby clean. packages get delivered to your door!
Cons:
Management is ok at response times. Took 1.5 weeks for them to change a toilet which resulted in not being able to use the bathroom for a while.
