Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews of buildings managed by OLD GRANDPA REALTY LLC reveal responsive management, particularly in addressing maintenance issues promptly. Tenants appreciate affordable rents and prime locations alongside positive neighbor relations. However, several comments note aging infrastructure, including outdated appliances, narrow staircases, and bathrooms needing renovation. Garbage management and cleanliness show some inconsistency, with calls for improved trash systems and better upkeep. Heating generally performs well, but water system leaks have been reported. Overall, while some buildings require modernization and enhanced amenities, the landlord's attentiveness and community atmosphere contribute favorably to the living experience.

standard nyc apt

Pros

rent was affordable in a prime location! landlord was very responsive and quick to fix any issues

Cons

older building, narrow staircase, mail and packages can't be delivered if no-one is home to let the mail/amazon/fedex person inside, outdated mini appliances

Former tenant·2 months ago

Great starter apartment for a group of friends, but please renovate

Pros

I liked the communal space. Very ideal for a landing pad for a group of friends to live together.

Cons

I wish the bathrooms were renovated and that there was a better system for taking out the trash, such as providing bins. Also, there were frequent leak incidents.

Advice to the owners

Renovate bathrooms and water pipe system
