Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for buildings managed by Eli Levy reveal a pattern of poor management and maintenance, especially at 84 East 4 Street and 181 Prince Street in Manhattan. Tenants report serious issues including pest infestations (mice, roaches), unclean and unsafe common areas, broken heating systems, and negligent or hostile superintendents. Owner responsiveness is frequently criticized as slow or absent, with many complaints ignored or addressed only after tenant pushback. While locations are praised for convenience, the overall tenant experience is affected by lack of upkeep, security concerns, and unprofessional management. Improvements in property maintenance, pest control, and tenant communication are urgently needed.

Reviews

Former tenant·55 minutes ago

Nice location, new management is good

Pros

Location is very convenient on 2nd ave, sunroof and living areas are large

Cons

No central air so gets very hot or very cold at times, old management was unresponsive

Former tenant·10 minutes ago

It’s small and fine, but not horrible

Pros

Somewhat decent price for location, not super loud, small space but decent for price and location - definitely tour in person before signing a lease

Cons

Public spaces can be dirty, recently got new management but old management was not great, seen about 5-7 roaches in the 1.5 years I’ve lived here, had no heat or hot water for first month I was here (but has been fixed and fine since then) - overall it’s fine and a decent price for the location, which is the best part

Advice to the owners

Take better care of the public spaces in the building, actually put money into the building to upkeep it and maintain it
