Biltmore Plaza at 155 East 29 Street,

Manhattan, NY 10016

Kind doormen, good package management

Outdate and expensive gym

Doormen are amazing Responsive staff Clean

Expensive Extra charge for amenities

Clean, responsive management

Loud neighbors at times

Lived here for 3.5 years and loved it! The management is incredibly responsive and immediately solves any issues that pop up. Building is very safe thanks to the wonderful doormen who know EVERY resident - they never let any non-residents in without stopping them, unlike most other “doorman” buildings in the area. Maintenance requests are always fixed within 24 hours. Amenities are a nice bonus, but for a fee. Overall this building is wonderful and I highly recommend!

- You can’t pay for ammentites on a month to month basis. Instead you have to pay for the remainder of the lease in one lump sum, which we found super frustrating. Even the roof can only be used if you pay for it - Mostly post grads in the building, but that’s to be expected for the area

Nice doormen, good laundry room, nice amenities, nice appliances, responsive handymen

Rent is expensive, Tips at holiday time can be pricey

Been living here for over two years and we love it. The community, the doormen, the cleanliness. We feel at home

Nothing to complain about

None

Super accesible to multiple grocery stores, convenience stores, Target, restaurants. Amenities are super nice. Building staff is wonderful and vert helpful. The building driveway is an underrated yet extremely valuable amenity. Great view.

Rent increase was insane. 20% increase while another of the same unit in the building only increased 10%. There is no rhyme or reason for their rental prices. Super loud with ambulances, HVAC unit is not super easy to use and apt temperature is very variable. They advertise parking available, but it is simply a public parking that you have to pay for.

The rent increases are absolutely heinous. There is no transparency or understanding of why the price went up, when other units in the same building stayed the same.

Staff is very professional.

Raises rent a lot!

Amazing location and very close to Trader Joe's

Pretty expensive compared to other buildings in the area

No advice applicable

Amazing building, never had any issues they weren't able to resolve. Best doormen and staff in nyc. Overall experience was always extremely pleasant. Very nice apartments and one of the few that still allow you to put up a full wall to split the costs. Loved that they provided several renewal options at the end of the lease (e.g. month to month, 12 month, 17 month etc.) and you could pick the cheapest option.

Have to pay for access to roof (combined with gym and pool) After living there 7 years, they refused to negotiate with a reliable tenant during the pandemic, while giving new residents amazing deals with free rent etc. Had to move out because of this.

Be better to good, existing, reliable tenants.

Very well maintained building with full service doormen and handiworkers to keep the units and common spaces in tip top shape.

Very large and often attracts a young, recent grad crowd that can be loud/tends to throw parties.

Overall no advice, loved living here for 3 years.

The first good apartment I’ve lived in in nyc. Staff is super friendly. Gym is great. Building is quiet. Good price good size good area

Some of the management (not the doormen) can be pretty rude. The company made an error processing my COI for moving furniture. I stayed home from work that day only to have the delivery crew rejected at the door, despite having the coi approved and elevator booked over email 72 hours in advance. Had to pay 200 to reschedule. The manager I spoke to offered no apology and took no responsibility- just an it’s not our fault we hire a third party for this service and they made a mistake.

Nice building apartment

noise from the D train subway

Doorman staff, fast elevators, renovated lobby, spacious units and bathroom, responsive maintenance team

Cleanliness of floor hallways, management can sometimes do the least

Be a collaborator with the tenants who raise concerns rather than a defenseman

The doormen couldn’t be more helpful and attentive, whether that making getting your packages the easiest process, opening the door for you everytime you enter/exit the buildings, or helping you bring stuff up to your apartment if you need help. Also every time I’ve submitted a maintenance request they come within 30 minutes. Hallways are always clean. Elevators are fast and readily available. Neighbors are friendly and quiet. Beautiful lobby that they decorate very nice during the holidays. Great location, can see Trader Joe’s from my apartment window and Fairway is close by.

Annoying about the rooftop, be more lenient. If I’m paying for access to it I should be able to bring a guest.

Very clean, large staff taking care of place. Doormen are very friendly and helpful

Everything is amazing except the Kips Bay location

Good location, Driveway, large and clean lobby, big laundry room, great staff

Far from most subway lines. Garbage compactor closes 10pm.

Clean, easy, and nice ownership.

Noisy doormen. Annoying about rooftop.

Be less annoying about rooftop.

Clean lobby and hallways

Greedy owner. They increase the rent even when the market is flat. If the market has declined then the rent should decline but they still increase the rent. Terrible!

Don't increase the rent
