Reviews of 2254 5 Avenue

Former tenant·Over 3 years ago

Great building !!

Pros

They sweep every day I really Like that. Its also very quiet in the building I enjoy that as well.

Cons

Well am a new tenant but so far so good 🤟

Advice to the owners

Sometimes the lobby door stays unlocked, maybe supervise that so we don’t have just anybody walking in our building.

Former tenant·Over 3 years ago

No heat in winter!!

Pros

My apartment #14 was newly (though cheaply) renovated

Cons

We didn’t have heat or hot water for about 1.5 weeks in 2019, cockroaches, garbage situation out back was terrible (one neighbor would throw trash out their windows the the garbage area.) Management company was absolutely horrible to deal with. We also didn’t have a working stove for the first 6 weeks we lived there, management was uncaring.

Advice to the owners

Treat your tenants with more respect. Improve responsiveness to issues.
