Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback for CF E 88 LLC & SM E 88 LLC properties reveals a mixed experience. While buildings benefit from good locations, friendly neighbors, and convenient laundry facilities, management responsiveness is frequently criticized. Issues such as unaddressed pest infestations, maintenance delays, and unresolved water problems persist. Some tenants report management unfriendliness and inadequate handling of serious incidents. Building cleanliness and upkeep are inconsistent, with long-standing unresolved damage noted. Though some tenants recommend the buildings primarily for the community and amenities, improvements in management communication, prompt repairs, and overall care are strongly advised to enhance tenant satisfaction.

Do not rent here

Pros

Laundry on every floor Location Building staff for the most part

Cons

Ongoing roach infestation Sewage coming up through dishwasher Black mold Illegal scaffolding that has been up for 3+ years, which has contributed to the pests (same story for its sister building, 305 E. 86th Street) Unmaintained lobby (huge gash in wall behind doorman's station that is taped up w/ cardboard - it's been that way for upwards of 10 years)

Advice to the owners

Sell the building to someone who cares!

Nice apartment but horrible management

Pros

The unit I lived in had a really nice kitchen with a window but the window was painted shut. Nice california closets already installed in the apartment. Very friendly neighbors.

Cons

The management was horrible! UES management is super rude. One of my doorman sexually harassed my roommate and because he was union they could not fire him, only suspend him for 3 weeks. The other doorman were great. Super was a bully The neighbor above me left their hose on their terrace on overnight and it flooded my apartment. Had to have my walls and floors ripped up, management was rude, gave me the run around. They painted over the wet plaster 3 times which prolonged the repairs. Did not want to refund me rent when my apt was uninhabitable.
