Review Summary for 203 East 15 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Tenants of 203 East 15 Street in Manhattan praise the building's excellent location and responsive superintendent, contributing to a well-kept environment and strong community feel. Cleanliness, garbage management, and water pressure receive positive remarks, with some appreciating the apartments' spaciousness. However, recurring pest problems, particularly roaches in unrenovated units, remain a concern, with calls for more thorough treatment beyond extermination. Noise levels vary, influenced by both street activity and minimal soundproofing between floors. While some recommend the building for its management and communal atmosphere, others suggest improvements in pest control and noise insulation to enhance resident comfort.

Great Location, Well Kept Building, but Roach Issues
Former Tenant
Pros:
Generally well-kept building, central location is very convenient. Superintendent is very responsive and nice.
Cons:
I was in an unrenovated apartment and the unit had a significant roach issue. When you tell the management, they send an exterminator but do not try to fix the root issue - open holes in the walls that are unseen due to appliances covering them up. I have also had issues with pests coming up the drain. It made it very difficult to go on vacation and not be afraid to re-enter my apartment after being away for any more than a few days. Beware of any unrenovated apartments in this building for this issue - I tended to notice all the studios always were on the exterminator sign up.

Apartment is on a main avenue and is VERY noisy if you open the windows. It is even noisy when they are closed.

Elevator is very slow
Advice to owner:
Fix the roach issues at the source of the problem - not just an exterminator as a bandage solution

Great community and large apartments
Former Tenant
Pros:
Excellent longstanding co-op community
Cons:
Absolutely no soundproofing between floors, if the person upstairs has a dog or talks loudly you'll hear everything.
