    Review Summary for 258 East 78 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 258 East 78 Street underscore the building's clean environment, friendly neighbors, and generally quiet surroundings as key positives. Residents highlight spacious units with natural light and good storage, as well as reliable elevator service and effective pest control. However, heating issues during winter and occasional roof leaks have been noted. A significant concern among tenants is the owner's poor responsiveness and outdated rent payment system, leading to frustrations with maintenance and communication. Management could enhance tenant satisfaction by improving responsiveness and modernizing administrative processes. Overall, the building offers a pleasant living experience but would benefit from more attentive management.

    Nice unit, leaky roof
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Really nice natural light from skylights in kitchen and bathroom, windows on two sides in bedroom, convenient layout
    Cons:
    Surprisingly the skylights did not leak but the roof would freeze and we’d get severe leaks in the corner of the living room each winter. Cold in winter in bedroom. Management company was absolutely horrible to interact with, which was needed when a rent check was mislaid and when a repair was needed.
    Advice to owner:
    I think you manage too many apartments to just have the one secretary responding to everything
