Reviews of 320 West 96 Street

Former tenant·7 months ago

Everything about this landlord is terrible. STEER CLEAR WHOLE YOU CAN!!!

Pros

Somewhat large rooms.

Cons

It is truly a slum. They never fix anything. We had our upstairs neighbor's TOILET WATER leak down onto our bathroom continuously. The super took weeks to fix the water leak upstairs but never touched the water damage on our walls and ceiling the entire duration of my lease. It took the landlord 14 months to pay our security deposit. They never respond to any texts or calls during my entire lease period. I went to the property management office only to find it is vacant according to their neighbors. Just steer clear while you can!

Just avoid it

Pros

Can’t think of any

Cons

Don’t know where to start. It simply had all the issue you could imagine. Heat, water temperature, pests, bad smell, laundry room... I once saw the super wash his mop in the washer! And landlord couldn’t care less. Before we moved out, he called and asked me to get new tenants in, without even sounding polite. Of course I didn’t, so ended up losing half of my security deposit.
