    Review Summary for Embassy House
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Tenant reviews for 301 East 47 Street highlight a well-maintained doorman building with spacious apartments, washer/dryers in some units, and attentive staff. Common areas are generally clean, and residents appreciate the secure environment and helpful doormen. However, pest issues, particularly cockroaches and occasional rodents, recur in some apartments and common spaces. Maintenance responsiveness varies, with some tenants citing slow or inadequate fixes and management sometimes being difficult to deal with. Noise levels fluctuate, especially during UN sessions or weekend events. The gym is noted as small and sometimes poorly maintained. Overall, the building offers convenience and comfort but could improve pest control and management consistency.

    Pros:
    Overall, after 5 years, I’ve loved the building and the area. The doormen are super nice and helpful. Our apartment had a washer and dryer for a somewhat reasonable price for NYC, although we initially got the apartment on a major COVID deal so that could be why. But generally speaking I’ve enjoyed my time living here and common areas were always well kept.
    Cons:
    While the area is great, it’s horrible when the UN is in session. Maintenance was always quick to respond, but we always had so many issues with things breaking or not working properly, and they’d just do bandaid fixes every time. Amenities are fine enough for what they are but cost extra.
    Advice to owner:
    Be better about actually fixing recurring issues

    Long story short...
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Flex room was flexed well.
    Cons:
    Stellar Management treated me like garbage. They put my roommate and my lives at risk with their negligence, refused to pay for emergency room costs, and threatened to sue if we sued. 0/10 management.

    Also, we had mice, Portuguese waterbugs, and carpet beetles in the apartment, and cockroaches in the gym.

    Also, there was no way to turn off the heat in the winter. It was literally 85 degrees every night in my room.
    Advice to owner:
    Be better people
