Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for buildings managed by Clifton Taylor highlight appreciated aspects such as spacious apartments in prime locations with friendly neighbors. However, tenants consistently report significant management shortcomings, including poor responsiveness to maintenance issues, persistent pest infestations, and heating problems. Garbage management and overall cleanliness receive low marks, contributing to a generally neglected building environment. While the super shows kindness, communication delays and inadequate repairs exacerbate renter frustrations. Suggestions focus on improving maintenance efficiency, pest control, and heating reliability to enhance living conditions. Prospective renters should expect a well-situated but older building with management needing substantial improvement.

Reviews

Former tenant·10 hours ago

It's a typical NYC cheap apartment but expensive

Pros

Lovely neighbors, well located, surprisingly pest free for being above a restaurant. A nice amount of space.

Cons

Above a bar, issues with heat and hot water, trash around the corner, hallways are disgusting. Super is kind but will ignore you completely for days, weeks, months. Issues with plumbing in the building that cause ceiling leaks. The building has rent controlled tenants, and I think the owner intentionally keeps it shitty to push them out.

Advice to the owners

Actually fix things. Stop being cheap about heat.
