307 West 29 Street,

Manhattan, NY 10001

The heater works great in the winter, and the a/c is also pretty good, the electricity bill is unusually low for being NYC. I like that it’s a 25 minute walk to the Chelsea market. Nice attractions nearby like the Hudson Yards.

The management neglect has been real for the past 10 months my partner and I have been living there. For several months the water in the tub and sink wasn’t draining and it took months for them to fix. Then we’ve discovered a leak that was soaking up our storage items in the closet, ruining bags of clothes. We didn’t know about the leak for months because our clothes was absorbing the water. Now the leak has deteriorated pieces of the closet ceiling that has ruined more our personal belongings. Management eventually carved out a hole on the ceiling to detect where the leak is coming from a couple months ago, however this has allowed a bunch of gigantic nasty water bugs/jumbo cockroaches to enter the unit. I’ve asked for an exterminator and nothing. We’re unable to use the only closet space, and the hallway floor is constantly wet from the drip, also ruining the wooden floor. We called 311 and the NY housing department told us we have MOLD upon seeing the situation. This has caused my partner and I respiratory issues since we’re both asthmatic. We’ve now detected more stains on different parts of the ceiling. When we first noticed the leak, I asked if we can switch to a different vacant unit that was on StreetEasy, and they were a—holes saying NO. I’ve paid about $3200 monthly for this slum unit advertised like some amazing quaint Chelsea studio loft, false advertisement! The area is midtown and unfortunately there are an insane amount of homeless people down the street doing drugs and crapping outside. To be fair, the management recently fired the old bldg manager and we now have a new once since like two weeks. Maybe things will be different, who knows but personally, we can’t wait to get out ASAP because living here has been a living nightmare. Oh, and there’s no laundry in the bldg. Closest one is an Avenue and a few blocks away.

Many nasty cockroaches, please hire an exterminator. Take necessary repares more seriously. Stop overcharging!

Foyer and stairway kept very clean, pest control visits scheduled monthly

No response for issues with the apartment from the maintenance team or landlord. Had a leak in the kitchen sink for 2+ months, texts and calls went unanswered.

Respect the tenants
