Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback on 240 East 78 Street highlights spacious, unique apartment layouts with desirable features such as balconies, high ceilings, and ample closet space. The location on a quiet, clean residential street in the Upper East Side with convenient subway access is a significant plus. Residents appreciate the friendly neighbors and good water pressure. However, management responsiveness is a consistent concern, with reports of unaddressed maintenance issues and poor pest control including pests like mice, ants, and cockroaches. Garbage management and cleanliness in common areas also receive criticism. While some tenants recommend the building for its living spaces and location, management improvements are needed for a better experience.

Great street, great neighbors

Pros

Apartment layouts are very unique and laundry in building. Near all the best places of the UES and subway.

Cons

If you face the street, you might hear some traffic in the morning but nothing crazy. It’s a pretty residential street and clean.

Not taken care of. The management is the most horrible, unresponsive.
