    Huge Mouse Problem
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Nice building with a clean lobby.
    Cons:
    Huge mouse problem! I have lived here less than two years and caught over 10 mice myself. I see them running around my apartment everyday. Pest control comes once every few months and puts down sticky traps but it does nothing.

    - creepy laundry room - dated - small bedrooms
    Over 1 year ago
    Landlord / Owner communication poor
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Has all the amenities and the unit I’m in is clean.
    Cons:
    Mice infestation. Landlord/Owner is slow to respond and takes advantage of renters.

    Great building with mild pest issues
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Laundry in unit, location, luminosity
    Cons:
    Footsteps noise, rarely mouse issue fixed by cloging a hole
    Advice to owner:
    More for pest control and sound insulation
    Over 1 year ago
    Great building overall
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great building with perks including elevator, laundry on site, beautiful lobby. The super and his wife are kind and very responsive to concerns. The entrance is protected by 2 locked doors, and the intercom system to enter connects to your phone.
    Cons:
    Bugs exist here (as in any NYC building) — but are not extremely well managed. It is chilly in the winter, with the heat running low.
    Advice to owner:
    Take more care of pests
    Over 2 years ago
    Easy building if you’re low maintenance
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Elevator, new mail locker storage in basement
    Cons:
    There are occasional rats. Super live in building is slow to respond or hard to get in contact with via phone and email.
    Advice to owner:
    Thanks for the improvement with the basement package storage. Helpful during those stealing phases in the building.

    229 e 29
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The supers are extremely friendly, but busy people with this and other buildings to work. The location is great and nice to have an elevator
    Cons:
    There is a lot of noise that comes from the building behind. It is a loud band that practices almost every night for hours, and no, they’re not good.
    Advice to owner:
    Building is great the light fixtures could use an inside dusting in the halls.

    229 East 29
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great building in Murray Hill
    Cons:
    Sometimes problem with pests in basement or noise from neighbors moving in and out.
    Advice to owner:

    Avoid at all costs, not worth it
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Nice lobby, secure package room, laundry in building
    Cons:
    Super is unresponsive, Does not respond to any texts or calls. You are way better off going to a different building, no reason anybody needs to deal with this. Looks like there is an unmanaged mice problem. Really wish I knew all this before hand. Nice building but not nice enough to deal with how annoying it is to live here.
    Advice to owner:
    Get a new super.
