Reviews

It works for short term
Former Tenant
Pros:
Apartments are quite large compared (c) openigloo to rent cost.
Cons:
Very noisy building. You can (c) openigloo hear the LIRR and neighbors (c) openigloo through the walls, ceiling, and (c) openigloo floor.
STEER CLEAR of HERE
Former Tenant
Pros:
Essentially nothing. The hardwoods were (c) openigloo nice to look at until (c) openigloo we were forced to cover (c) openigloo them completely with carpets, felt (c) openigloo pads, and rubber mats to (c) openigloo appease a downstairs neighbor who (c) openigloo claimed us walking around was (c) openigloo too loud.
Cons:
Watch your step, there are (c) openigloo cockroaches everywhere in public areas. (c) openigloo They are dead from the (c) openigloo chemicals sprayed everywhere but you (c) openigloo never know with them. Samson (c) openigloo Management dodged me for over (c) openigloo two months after the supplied (c) openigloo refrigerator broke and they didn’t (c) openigloo replace it for almost 3 (c) openigloo months. Not to mention we (c) openigloo were never compensated for this (c) openigloo insanity nor did they ever (c) openigloo acknowledge the unbelievable number of (c) openigloo calls and emails we sent (c) openigloo them regarding this issue. Simultaneously, (c) openigloo we had cockroaches inside our (c) openigloo apartment which even after numerous (c) openigloo attempts to resolve the matter (c) openigloo with the super and the (c) openigloo management company, the best they (c) openigloo would do was put us (c) openigloo on the list of apartments (c) openigloo to be sprayed in a (c) openigloo few weeks on the *single* (c) openigloo designated day they would bring (c) openigloo in an exterminator. This left (c) openigloo us without a kitchen as (c) openigloo we now had no fridge (c) openigloo and so many cockroaches we (c) openigloo felt like we couldn’t even (c) openigloo go into the tiny 6sqft (c) openigloo area they called a kitchen. (c) openigloo Heat was on and off (c) openigloo randomly but it was as (c) openigloo if they had the settings (c) openigloo on backwards. It would blast (c) openigloo heat when you were already (c) openigloo dying from it and then (c) openigloo it wouldn’t kick on when (c) openigloo you were shivering. (No joke (c) openigloo they had the heat on (c) openigloo all the way into May (c) openigloo to the point we had (c) openigloo to leave our windows open (c) openigloo year-round). Hot water would run (c) openigloo out when you needed it. (c) openigloo The icing on the cake (c) openigloo came when I was physically (c) openigloo assaulted by my downstairs neighbor (c) openigloo and was forced to get (c) openigloo a restraining order against him. (c) openigloo The building on all floors (c) openigloo ALWAYS smelled. There were cockroaches (c) openigloo and other bugs in the (c) openigloo trash chute area. Mice in (c) openigloo the hallways. People smoke in (c) openigloo the stairwell. The sound of (c) openigloo airplanes passing overhead makes you (c) openigloo think they are going to (c) openigloo crash into your apartment because (c) openigloo they get so loud. Constant (c) openigloo noise outside of cars honking (c) openigloo or alarms going off or (c) openigloo more construction. And good luck (c) openigloo if you have a car: (c) openigloo I think on average it (c) openigloo would take us 20-30 minutes (c) openigloo to find a spot with (c) openigloo some days being more than (c) openigloo double that.
Advice to owner:
Get your act together.
Highs and lows
Former Tenant
Pros:
Landlord responded relatively quick when (c) openigloo you needed him
Cons:
There were times when I (c) openigloo would see a lot of (c) openigloo huge water bugs in apartment (c) openigloo & hallways. Sometimes washer & (c) openigloo dryers would take your money (c) openigloo but wouldn’t work
Advice to owner:
Clean hallways & staircases better & do something about huge water bugs
Thin ceiling and noisy kid upstairs
Former Tenant
Pros:
Spacious rooms, very close to (c) openigloo subway
Cons:
Ceiling is paper thin and (c) openigloo kid upstairs runs around non-stop. (c) openigloo Horrible experience and moved out (c) openigloo ASAP.
Pros & Cons
Former Tenant
Pros:
Noise level with neighbors was (c) openigloo always at a minimum. Doorman (c) openigloo building for great price, packages (c) openigloo were always safe. Beautiful city (c) openigloo view, great sunlight.
Cons:
Cold in the winter, window (c) openigloo seal wasn't great took forever (c) openigloo for super to repair. At (c) openigloo times one operating elevator.
Advice to owner:
Maintenance team needed for speedy response.
Well the park is nice
Former Tenant
Pros:
The doormen are sweet, the (c) openigloo neighbors are great as well. (c) openigloo Great view from balcony.
Cons:
Cheaply put together, not maintained (c) openigloo properly, infestations of insects AND (c) openigloo rodents. Super is never available, (c) openigloo and when he is, does (c) openigloo the bare minimum. We lose (c) openigloo power often, one elevator or (c) openigloo both are always not working.
Advice to owner:
Upkeep better than it is now, mainly the infestations and the maintenance of everything in the building.
Great neighborhood
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great neighborhood Very clean Great super Quiet Gorgeous park (c) openigloo across the street Bus stops in (c) openigloo front of building
Cons:
Building management responsibility and responsiveness
Advice to owner:
Do a better job taking care of your tenants.
Bugs and elevator issues
Former Tenant
Pros:
My apartment is big with (c) openigloo a separate kitchen and plenty (c) openigloo of windows. Two bathrooms and (c) openigloo parking on site.
Cons:
We were overrun with cockroaches (c) openigloo within the first two weeks (c) openigloo of moving in. I reported (c) openigloo it to a guy who (c) openigloo came around to inspect, and (c) openigloo he took a photo of (c) openigloo the roaches, but nothing was (c) openigloo done. We have all our (c) openigloo food in sealed containers and (c) openigloo take out trash, do dishes (c) openigloo daily, but they’re still everywhere. (c) openigloo The elevator is constantly either (c) openigloo out of service (sometimes it (c) openigloo gets “fixed” and then breaks (c) openigloo down again the same day (c) openigloo or next day) and is (c) openigloo so rickety even when it’s (c) openigloo working that it feels like (c) openigloo you’re taking your life in (c) openigloo your hands every time you (c) openigloo get in. I have no (c) openigloo complaints about the apartment but (c) openigloo the bugs are just intolerable.
Advice to owner:
Do something about the pests, and just replace the elevator already. The department of buildings has complaints on file about it going all the way back to 2009. I know there are people living in the same wing as me who are in wheelchairs or very old, and who knows what they do when it’s not working.
