    Review Summary for 249 E 30 St
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenant reviews for 249 East 30th Street highlight a prime location with nearby amenities like stores and entertainment. The building is well-maintained, with proactive management and quick maintenance responses. However, concerns about inconsistent heating and substantial rent increases have been raised.

    Good place to live, reliable super & management team, way too expensive now
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Pre-war building with central heat, big windows, very well maintained old-school elevator, Chris & Frankie are wonderful in supporting with our maintenance requests (they often respond next day or even immediately if they're in the building). Never had issues with trash, sometimes the laundry in basement can be iffy. Really cannot beat the location, next to TJ's, Fairway, Target, CVS, AMC (<5 mins walking)
    Cons:
    The heat is a bit unreliable sometimes (too hot/too cold) but that's typical for pre-war NYC buildings. The rent increases are quite exorbitant (~$1000 increase within a 3 year period).
    Advice to owner:
    Your rent increases were quite exorbitant despite tenants being 100% on time for payments and never raised serious issues.
