Review Summary for 399 East 78 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 399 East 78 Street commend its excellent location, spacious layouts, good natural light, and quiet atmosphere with strong water pressure. Many appreciate the friendly neighbors and generally well-maintained cleanliness and garbage management. However, persistent pest issues, notably German cockroaches, and inconsistent heating have caused frustration. Tenant feedback highlights slow owner responsiveness and occasional elevator maintenance delays. Security concerns due to lack of cameras have led to package theft. While some residents find the building manageable by being proactive, others advise improved management and pest control efforts to enhance tenant satisfaction. Overall, location and space stand out despite maintenance challenges.

Not Horrible, But Not Great Either
Former Tenant
Pros:
Location! The building is a short walk from the East River Esplanade and in close proximity to shopping, activities, and transportation.
Cons:
The Super. If you are looking to be gaslit by your super for every concern and request you have, this is the spot for you! The super puts the bare minimum of effort toward the cleanliness of the building, toward fixing a leak, or eradicating the presence of cockroaches. For this reason, my time at the building has been a long and arduous journey.
Advice to owner:
Please consider hiring someone who listens and cares for the space they manage. The residents are aware of the decline in quality of care.
