Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 118 East 31 Street, Manhattan point to a striking contrast between the building’s appealing architecture and location versus significant management and maintenance issues. Tenants appreciate the good natural light, spacious units, and friendly neighbors, but nearly all highlight persistent problems: poor heating, pest infestations, unreliable water pressure, and inconsistent cleanliness. The primary grievance is the landlord’s slow or absent responsiveness to repair requests and communication, causing frustration among residents. Garbage management and unexpected work without notice also add to dissatisfaction. Despite the building’s potential, renters generally do not recommend it due to ongoing unresolved concerns and management shortcomings.

Reviews

Former tenant·4 minutes ago

Understaffed and poorly managed

Pros

Heating issues have significantly improved as of late (new super, but they often get burned out). Good natural light in unit

Cons

The heating isn't always great and the neighbors (outside of the building) often litter on the terrace. Also it's taken months to get many issues addressed, and many are still left unaddressed (oven not working and did not hear response for over a month), gutter fell on roof, roof leaks not addressed for over 2 weeks. Trash is not taken care of.

Advice to the owners

Be more responsive. Everyone in the building is unhappy and leaves within a year (aside from maybe 1 tenant). It's not good for business

Former tenant·10 months ago
