Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback for 200 East 17 Street highlights mixed experiences. Positives include a convenient location near transit and Prospect Park, renovated units with ample closet space, in-building laundry, and elevator access. Some appreciate the friendly neighbors and generally quiet environment. However, key concerns involve inconsistent heating, pest infestations with roaches and rodents, cleanliness issues in hallways and trash areas, and security problems like unsecured side doors leading to safety worries.

Despite challenges, some long-term tenants recommend the building for its affordability and location.

Pros

Clean, elevator and laundry in-building, live-in super

Cons

Heat is hit or miss in some units until you harass them. Super is responsive but changes somewhat often. Not enough laundry units

Building is getting better but issues

Pros

Close to trains, Prospect Park.

Cons

The heat is unbearable at times. We can control the heat so it can be 55 outside but the heat is turned off full blast. Also elevator goes down once every two months and consistently slams when closing.

Advice to the owners

Be smart about how you manage the heat in the building. With climate change weather patterns are not the same as in the past. I shouldn’t be wearing tank tops and shorts in the middle of winter because it’s 55 outside but the heat is full blast in my apartment.
