Salon Realty Corp

Elevator, Very nice & responsive Super, Dishwasher, Laundry In Basement

Heat is a bit high in the winter, studios are a bit smaller than depicted.

Great building that is well kept.

Had a roach problem when I first moved in, they were very good about getting traps, pest control exterminating, and being responsive and we were able to get rid of the problem quickly!

Super was responsive to issues, no major noise issues

Only 4 washing machines in the building

The building has a lot of light and is centrally located. Great patio.

Mice and roaches, lack of responsiveness.

The units are well taken care of, great location on a quiet street, and the super is very responsive.

Old piping makes the water run brown sometimes; the ceilings are not well insulated from noise, so you will hear upstairs tenants if they are heavy walkers,

It is time to replace the windows and bathroom fixtures - they are ancient.

Nothing to say

The super verbally disrespects tenants
Elevator is always broken
Management is unresponsive and does not fix elevator issues
Your packages will get stolen
Washing machines are ineffective

Amazing location. Central, close to WSP, to the subway, and neighborhood is so beautiful and nice.

Can't contact management whatsoever, super is trying to help but himself is not all that responsive. Apartment get VERY hot in the summer. In the winter the pipes outside the building are making awfully loud noises that keep you up.

Try to provide a better experience to renters!

Location in the neighborhood

Management company makes you jump through hoops to get anything fixed. The walls literally melted in one bedroom and were filled with mold.

Sell to a company that is willing to maintain the building

I have lived here 6 years. Much has changed. Salon Realty took over 4 years or so ago and things improved over the chaos of previous management.

The windows are thin and cold gets in

Replace the windows

Quiet neighborhood, very close to Q train. Food options in the neighborhood a bit mid, but there are some gems like oda house the next block over. decently sized studio, would be unlikely to find a significantly larger studio for this price in UES with no brokers fee.

when it started getting cold i wished they turned the heat on maybe a week or 2 earlier. also the shower vents between units are connected, so you can hear your neighbors sometimes. closet is a little small

install screens on windows to keep flies out

clean , studios decently sized

construction adjacent ruined my apartment - i lost all my natural light. While technically this isn't the building's fault they never responded to my numerous requests for relocation.

they raised the price of laundry from 2.75 to 4 and it costs 8 dollars for a load of laundry.

They keep raising the rent even as I lost my natural light and now have to live with a mesh covering over my only window due to construction.

Care about your tenants

Super is responsive. Property manager is not

Terrible neighbors, dogs and smoking inside.

Close to trains and Central Park, yet neighborly and peaceful

Laundry room could have more machines

New super that is trying to make things betters

- multiple sightings of rats inside the building due to improper trash storage
- cockroaches seen throughout the building
- unsafe package drop off area
- mail constantly being left outside of mailboxes
- improper heating in the winter
- various issues with water
- hoarded in the 1st floor that creates an unpleasant smell throughout the building
- multiple notices from the city for violations

Start managing the building lol

Mangement took care of all my issues

Neighbors can be loud

Enforce quiet hours

The building is well placed, Trader Joe’s and Target wasn’t far. Madison Square Park was only a few blocks away. The closet in one bedroom was amazing. For what it was and what we paid during the pandemic it was great.

The trash collection was right as you walk into the hallway and often became overfull which made entering and exiting an annoying obstacle course as the super would often disappear without notice and his replacement didn’t do much. At one point our fridge broke and instead of telling the management his solution was “Put your food in a plastic bag and hang it out the window. It’s freezing outside.” … in what world is 50° freezing? The management was slow to act in any situation. After Hurricane Ida my roommate had a leak from his ceiling and subsequently a hole formed. We moved out with said hole intact. The apartment was a converted one bedroom and as such there are no windows in the living room and no closet in one bedroom. There were also no ceiling lights in the bedrooms. It needed renovating. The neighbors were loud, stamped upstairs constantly and screamed on their terrace or threw their trash onto another terrace which caused a lot of disagreement. They changed the ringer system while I was there and only put down one roommate not the both of us which was weird. The management had one portal each for each person on the lease to pay their portion of the rent but never informed or warned me that my roommate was not paying the rent.

Get off your backsides and respond to tenants asking you for assistance

Location is good

Mice issue and unresponsiveness from building management

Very close to the subway. Quiet street, usually clean.

Be prepared for the roaches. Not a lot of sunlight.

Fairly priced rent

Beware the hoarder on the first floor. The entire building smells like trash.

Lovely neighbors, well located, surprisingly clean for being above a restaurant

Above a bar, issues with heat and hot water, trash around the corner, hallways are disgusting
