Review Summary for 84-50 Austin Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 84-50 Austin Street, Queens, NY 11415 highlight severe cleanliness and maintenance issues, including mold, bugs, and rent increases. The water pressure is consistently praised, but noise levels and neighbor disturbances are common concerns. Tenants appreciate friendly neighbors and some helpful staff members like Miguel. However, challenges with unresponsive property managers, unresolved maintenance issues, and overall building upkeep detract from the living experience. Suggestions include improving building conditions, addressing noise disturbances, and enhancing tenant-owner communication to elevate the quality of living in this location.

Water Pressure is Great!
Former Tenant
Pros:
Water pressure is great.
Some nice neighbors.
Convenient location.
Cons:
Building is getting dirtier by the day. Garbage piles up. If you look outside you'll see garbage all over.
Mold/chipping paint.
There are bugs...
If you aren't in a stabilized unit they raise your rent anywhere from 10 - 20%... just not worth it for the quality of the building.
Advice to owner:
Take care of the property. It's going down hill.

Look anywhere else!
Former Tenant
Pros:
Convenient location.
Street parking is doable.
As others said the water pressure is good.
Balcony is nice if you have one (minus the pigeons).
Cons:
Where to start?
Walls are paper thin. Guy above us moved in and clearly has no rugs. It sounds like a bowling alley. Can hear our neighbors snoring snoring next door and then there’s a screamer on the floor.
The building isn’t clean. There are bugs. No matter how clean you keep your apartment there are cockroaches. The icing on the cake was my husband waking up with one on him in bed.
People with dogs let them urinate right by the entry way. It is gag inducing. Then they bring the dogs back inside with their pee paw prints into the lobby. No respect for their own property I guess?
We had a mold issue in the walls and while it got patched the walls were starting to deteriorate again.
Rent for existing tenants goes up a silly amount every year. A one bedroom in this building isn’t worth the price they are asking. Our “chefs kitchen” (as it’s advertised) had all of 1 drawer and outlet.
Advice to owner:
Clean the building up and get Miguel support!
