    Reviews

    Location is everything

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Location is perfect, close to transit and right by the park
    Cons:
    We have had a bug infestation in the building since the summer and “pest control” does nothing other than agree with us that it is a problem Rent for the space, I guess you’re just paying for location but it’s absolutely insane how much they continue to raise the rent for the square footage
    Report

    Average, Really like the location

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Pretty quiet, good neighbors
    Cons:
    Heat problems in winter
    Report

    Landlord finished prison sentence and increased rent

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Location, Elevator, Pets allowed
    Cons:
    Landlord didn’t pay con Ed bill, notices given for lights in common area shutoff. Landlord didn’t heat building and fired super, consistently cold temperatures during winter. Drilled out locks before lease ended
    Report

    This is a review from 2011-2013

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great location! Great outdoor space!
    Cons:
    When we were robbed in the middle of the night due to a malfunctioning lock on our living room window, the management did absolutely nothing. We filed a police report. Not only were we robbed, but the buildings to the left and right of us were robbed in an identical manner during the same week and the management took no onus as to the lack of functioning locks on living room windows. They ignored our complaints and never fixed the locks.
    Advice to owner:
    I don't know if it is still the same property owner ... but if it is, buyer beware.
    Report

    Ok first apartment

    Former Tenant

    Report

    Former Tenant

    Mold in building. Management would enter without notice. No pest control. Slow to repair if they ever do.
    Advice to owner:
    Maintain your building appropriately.

    Mediocre but functional

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    - location - wine cooler - new-ish appliances - in-unit washer and dryer - incredibly tiny space
    Cons:
    - water takes over 5-10 min to heat up each time - heat is off for over half the day during winter - floor is old and gross
    Advice to owner:
    Fix the hot water and heat
    Report

    Friendly and clean but needs some repairs

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great location and every week they are there cleaning the hallways and stairs. Brandon is super great and always friendly
    Cons:

    Great location, less than great neighbours

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great location, edge of West Village.
    Cons:
    - Neighbours are loud, walls are thin. You can hear your neighbours talking in their living room from yours. - Weed smell comes through the walls, especially from the bottom, if the floor under you smokes. This happened a lot. - The backyard has all the trash bins, but it appears that the rats have eaten holes into the bins. The lids have multiple holes. More than once I’ve faced a big rat in a tiny space relegated to trash, it’s unnerving.
    Advice to owner:
    The apartment should have smoking banned. It’s a very old place and apartments are not airtight, it’s very easy to be bothered by the smell from floor below.

    Good apartment but horrible management

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    - apartment nicely renovated - washer/dryer in unit - convenient location - safe neighborhood - very quiet (can't hear cars, street noise, etc)

We found out once the lease was signed and when we contacted the gas company to set up an account - rent increased by 14% in 2 years

    Regarding the Historic St. Marie

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    I've lived in this building for 45 yrs. It's an historic building in a NYC historic district block. The apartments that have not been shoddily redone are not nice. The apartments that are still rent regulated are large and historically beautiful.
    Cons:
    The owner is the notorious criminal, Steven Croman. He with holds heat and hot water continuously every year. We have mice and a bad sewage smell immitting from the basement that floods often. They also store garbage in the basement that causes rodent infestations. Bird nest infestation causes bird excrement all over our windowsills, front steps/stoop and the fire escape. The public halls are often never cleaned. Best advice ..DO NOT RENT FROM CENTENNIAL PROPERTIES THAT IS OWNED BY STEVEN CROMAN !! LOOK HIM UP ! HE IS A HORROR!!

    Pros:
    It's cheap. The living room is spacious. It's close to the JZM lines.
    Cons:
    The Super is not always around and blamed us for pre-existing problems. The Landlord is terrible and a pain to talk to. They both blamed us for every issue that we had. He is the most frustrating person I've ever had to deal with, and the only reason why I won't renew my lease. The area isn't great and not too safe. We had someone break into our building and there was arson committed twice on Myrtle ave within one year. Packages and mail are always getting stolen. Homeless people sleep on the front step and frequently try to get into the building. There are multiple problems with our unit that were never fixed. There have been many lock issues.

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    My unit was fully renovated and has nice features and amenities, which were great. They keep the hallways pretty clean and the garbage/recycling area has improved from when I first moved in. The super and management aren't always very responsive but with some nagging they'll get things done.
    Cons:
    Not all the building units have been renovated and some seem to be long term rent control units with lifelong residents who can be...quirky. Some younger, partying types seemed to have moved in and can be loud as well. The heat is overwhelming sometimes and the hot water can be scalding hot.

    Worst property managers ever

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Super is responsive, location is amazing
    Cons:
    Don't expect your property manager to care whether you live or die. It's like pulling teeth to have them make repairs to actually make your apartment livable. They have no problem not fixing things like heat, hot water, mold, water damage, flood damage or any of the appliances. The super is nice and helpful but the management company will actually go out of their way to not fix anything.

    You should pick a new career if having a shred of human decency is too much to ask for you. Do your job.

    Not the worst rental option in Manhattan

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The apartment itself was lovely, with really nice finishes. The super was great and responsive. The building was clean and pretty well maintained, by NYC standards.
    Cons:
    When we moved in there were some issues with mold in one of the closets, which were addressed. Other repairs went unaddressed for almost a year, which was very frustrating. It seems management changed during our 2 year lease because after a year of being completely unreasonable, rude, and unresponsive, they were replaced by seemingly competent people (who were at least less rude). May be a one-off experience though, as I’ve heard some pretty bad things about the company from others who have rented in the past.

    Pros:
    Gorgeous, well-maintained building with great amenities and layouts. The property managers responsible for cleaning, garbage removal, maintenance etc are exceptional when you can get a hold of them (tough because the property management team doesn’t communicate with them). Lots of room in apartments.
    Cons:
    Centennial properties (building owner) does not respond to anyone. Over a foot of water flooded into the bottom floor of our apartment during hurricane ida (this was two weeks before we had 4 inches of water during hurricane henri). My roommate and I had to clean and disinfect everything ourselves (along with every other apartment that has a basement floor). I’m still waiting on a response as to whether they will provide any assistance with reimbursements or cleaning up the existing mold damage and warped floor tiles and bathroom door. Our apartment also never reached above 66 degrees in the winter unless we used personal heaters which then drove up our electricity bill.

We did not receive any cut in rent for this problem.
    Advice to owner:
    Turn on the gas!!!!

    There are worse but can be better

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Washer dryer dishwasher in units. Well insulated walls. Nice neighbors. Relatively quiet.
    Cons:
    Was cleaner and well maintained. Someone dumped milk into the recycling bin so the guy in charge of cleanliness quit. Management since hired someone new and it hasn’t been as well maintained as before. Seasonal small cockroaches, possibly due to restaurant downstairs. No rats though. Inconsistent heating during winter. Slow maintenance response time. Apartment management company absolutely the worst at responding. Spotty sunlight depending on unit.
    Advice to owner:
    Hire a new management company.

    Great Building-Love the Upgrades

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    It is the best-upgraded apartment! The washer dryer and dishwasher are key in this neighborhood! The supers have been amazing and fix everything you need ASAP.
    Cons:
    The heating can be loud and with working from home due to COVID-19 the heat could be on more. The biggest con to the building is the package theft problem. I normally just ship packages to the amazon locker right next door at the Duane Reade.
    Advice to owner:
    Fix the cameras and update the security to have a virtual doorman.

    Would not recommend

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Relatively quiet and no pests
    Cons:
    There was a water leak that was ongoing for months so we had to live with a gigantic hole in the living room while water was collecting, which eventually leaked through the plastic and owners didn’t respond for days. We never had 1 day of heat. Our hot water would go out randomly so we had to shower in the gym.
    Advice to owner:
    Get a good management company

    Unreliable

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
