    Review Summary for 442 Third Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 442 Third Avenue, Manhattan, highlight a great location and amenities, with in-unit washer/dryers and good appliances.

Renters value the quiet environment and convenient location but suggest improvements in pest control, building maintenance, and package security to enhance the overall living experience.

    Good Location, Non Existent Super/Landlord
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great location, garbage taken care of daily, digital intercom that you can buzz in from your phone
    Cons:
    Literally non existent super. You call a number or email and get a response in a few days. Do not expect immediate service if something needs attention. Cleanliness of floors could improve. Packages get stolen often. Front door locks have issues from time to time.

    Super quiet building!
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Can’t hear the neighbors at all, super thick walls
    Cons:
    We share a garbage alleyway with Ruby’s restaurant so the trash fills up super fast and you constantly crash into waiters when you’re out there

    Cons:
    mice, didn’t mind the noise but you can hear all the restaurants below at all times and there’s a birthday every single night at norma’s so be ready hear “happy birthday” song at least once a night.
