Review Summary for 244 East 28 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews of 244 East 28 Street highlight spacious apartments with ample natural light as a key benefit. However, tenants consistently raise serious concerns about poor cleanliness, inadequate garbage management, and pervasive pest issues including roaches and rodents. The building suffers from structural problems such as leaks and wall damage, compounded by a generally falling-apart condition. Heating and water pressure vary but generally receive mixed feedback. Management responsiveness is viewed as slow or insufficient, and neighbor relations are often difficult. Noise levels fluctuate, with some tenants reporting quiet while others face disturbances. Overall, significant building maintenance and improved management are urgently needed.

Lots of pests
Former Tenant
Pros:
Apartments are big and they get a lot of natural light
Cons:
Poor pest control: lots of roaches, poor management of the building (there are wholes in the walls, the floor is pasted with tape), and the roof is in poor shape (lots of leaks). The super has brought up that the roof needs to be fixed asap but landlord is not doing anything about it. Whatever kind of pest… you got it here.. don’t be surprised to come home to a rat chilling in your living room
