Review Summary for 31 East 31 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Tenant reviews for 31 East 31 Street, Manhattan, highlight a well-maintained building with clean apartments and responsive, helpful superintendents praised frequently by residents. The loft-style units offer high ceilings and central location convenience. However, recurring issues include unreliable elevators, inconsistent laundry facilities, and occasional pest sightings. Noise levels vary, with some noting loud neighbors or construction noise without ETA. Heating and water pressure have room for improvement, and certain apartments suffer from limited natural light. Management receives mixed feedback, with some tenants calling for better communication and upgrades like video intercoms. Overall, it suits those seeking a centrally located, clean space but with some trade-offs on amenities and noise.

Honest Nomad Lofts Review
Former Tenant
Pros:
-Loft like apartments
-Super and building staff are excellent
Cons:
-Elevators are terrible and unreliable! Every week it seems that only 1 of the 2 elevators is functional. I have lost count how many times tenants have gotten stuck in the elevators as well.
-Horrible laundry room (machines are terribly maintained)
-Loud neighbors on weekends (but you can't control this to some degree, so it's a gamble).
- Facade work is being being done on the building so be prepared for loud noise outside your windows even on weekends. There is no eta on completion for this work that has been communicated.
Advice to owner:
Get the laundry room situation under control. The elevator(s) consistently being out of service is unacceptable.
