Reviews of 300 East 78 Street

Former tenant·Over 3 years ago

Old but in good location

Pros

My apartment had a bunch of windows which was great and the kitchen/bathroom were semi renovated. Super and manager are responsive

Cons

Garbage in the entrance is gross, 2nd floor neighbor 2S is very loud/rude/dirty. Nothing is ever fixed properly the first time around. Constant issues with plumbing, electric, gas, noise from restaurants

Advice to the owners

Pay to have things renovated fixed properly to begin with instead patch work that gets worse. Renovate the gross halls and entrance!
