Review Summary for 2546 7 Avenue
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 2546 7 Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10039 highlight severe cleanliness issues, including rat infestations and poor garbage management. The building suffers from inadequate heating, unresponsive management, and ongoing pest control problems. Tenants express dissatisfaction with noisy neighbors, stolen packages, and malfunctioning amenities such as the buzzer system and the lack of a live-in superintendent.

Approval of the owner and recommendation to stay in the building are low due to various management and maintenance issues.

The Rat Kingdom
Former Tenant
Pros:
Generally speaking, the other tenants were kind people. With one major exception, but sometimes that can’t be helped. Location was seriously amazing, and I was on the 5th floor, so the roof access was everything. The apartment itself was sun-drenched and spacious, although in desperate need of a facelift.
Cons:
Rats. Let’s just start there. I had them in my ceiling and crawling around in my kitchen regularly. Landlords took 3 months to deal with it, after telling me they didn’t believe me, then threatened me when I called 311. Ultimately they just sent someone to fill a hole in the plaster wall behind my kitchen cabinets (which were falling off the wall), and I still saw rats in/around the building regularly. Garbage management was TERRIBLE. Most of the time there were massive piles of trash inside the building and it STANK in the summer. So many roaches and flies. Radiators barely came on and spewed hot water everywhere when they did. Hot water anywhere else, however, was a rare treat. I would’ve stayed but they neglected the building and my unit to a point where I couldn’t sleep. Every tiny noise at night woke me up because I was afraid it was another rat. I did everything I could to keep that apartment clean and pest free. Never got my security deposit back.
