Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews of buildings managed by Benito Coate reveal mixed management experiences. Tenants appreciate the convenient locations, responsive supers, and generally good garbage management. However, persistent pest issues—especially roaches and mice—are a major concern despite extermination efforts. Cleanliness and maintenance vary widely between units, with some reports of dust accumulation and broken appliances. Heating is unevenly reliable, and water pressure occasionally weak. Noise disturbances and package theft have been mentioned, with calls for improved communication, security measures, and infrastructure upkeep. While some residents affirm positive interactions with management, others criticize slow responsiveness and insufficient problem resolution overall.

Reviews

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

Avoid this place at all costs

Pros

Great location - close to the train, boutique shopping, and amazing restaurants Rent stabilized units - although we felt like the price was a bit steep for what it was No natural light in back facing units - except for 1 hour in the afternoon

Cons

Like others have said, there is a terrible pest issue. Mice and roaches GALORE in the D building despite signing up for the monthly extermination services. I understand that roaches are a part of NYC living, but this place is infested. I’m constantly seeing baby/small roaches throughout the kitchen, bathroom, and living room. When I reported the mouse issue, their solution was to shove steel wool in between our radiator cover. We’ve also had a horrible time with stolen packages and 0 help from management. Not to mention broken appliances and unstable heat. For maintenance requests, despite using the app they provide, I would have to follow up manually almost every single time via email or nothing would get done. (Also – not technically a fault of the building management, but our upstairs neighbors are insanely loud from midnight to 4 AM every night and noise has been a huge issue.)

Advice to the owners

Fix the root of your pest issue, improve communication between maintenance and the super, implement cameras INSIDE the building – you have a persistent package theft issue
