Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews of 307 East 33 Street highlight well-designed apartments featuring modern kitchens, in-unit washers/dryers, and appealing amenities like a rooftop and gym. The building benefits from a doorman and key fob security, enhancing resident safety. Its location is convenient to shops, dining, and ferry access, though subway stations require a 10-minute walk. Maintenance and owner responsiveness receive mixed feedback—while some find management timely and the building clean, others report slow responses, heating issues, noise disturbances, and pest sightings. Overall, tenants appreciate the comfort and security but suggest improvements in management and infrastructure for a better living experience.

Decent & safe living space!
Former Tenant
Pros:
The 303 East 33rd Apartments were my home for 2 years - it was a decent place to live, with your average amenities in a "luxury" apartment. The apartment units themselves are nice - washer/dryer in-unit, modern appliances, aesthetic living space (sleek kitchen, standing shower, mirror with backlight, hardwood floors). You'll have your other basics - gym, mailroom/package system, exterminator services. There is a doorman, which helps with safety, and also a key fob system after late hours. The rooftop is pretty! It's a great location - walking distance to Fairway, Trader Joes, AMC Kips Bay, 3rd ave bars, etc.
Cons:
This isn't really a "con", but it's a trek to the closest subway - a good 10 min walk to 28th/33rd street stations (but it's close to the 34th st. ferry!). We did have a few roach sightings, but it's NYC, so that's to expect. They offer exterminator services...just wish I didn't have to actually sign up for it! The washer/dryer in unit is a plus, but it's one of those energy efficient ones so they're small and the dryer takes forever.
