Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.
Location is good if you work for NYU, Bellevue, or Mount Sinai Beth Israel. Relatively quiet area but will wake up from ambulance noises during middle of the night from time to time. Being right across from citibike station is another plus if you use a bike to get around the city.
Very old building with lots of roaches. Water pressure is weak and circuit breaker activates frequently with moderate power use. Will find homeless people sitting, eating, and sometimes even defecating by the entrance depending on the time of the day. Extremely small elevators and the building smells like urine. Packages and food deliveries will goto a different fancier building with similar address (377 instead of 337) and can cause headaches and stress at times. Landlord is only available from M-F 9-5 for communication unless he needs something from the tenant, in which he will demand tenants to be available on the weekends and after hours.
Location Had small elevator and laundry in building
Hallways smell (cat pee) Landlord would only allow you to contact at very specific times and rude Rose rent by 65% a pure business man and doesn’t care about you. Laundry room in basement is wet, infested with bugs and not well maintained Water temperature in shower was not well controlled at all (either scorching hot or freezing cold) AC did not work well
