Reviews

Former tenant·6 months ago

Awesome super, building could use refurb

Pros

Polanco, the super, was always very responsive and polite. Would usually fix any issues same day and even within a couple hours.

Cons

We had a recurring mouse problem and honestly I think it's just the quality of renovations done on the building. They were quick to bring in pest control, they'd seal up holes and then we'd find new holes in places we'd never think to look (like the ceiling.) Laundry machines often out of service, management too cheap to just buy new ones Management needed to purchase

Advice to the owners

Buy new laundry machines, invest in mouseproofing in between tenants

Former tenant·10 months ago

200 E 26th - management is awful

Pros

The building is in a great location and the super is very nice/ helpful

Cons

The management is awful - don’t want to do anything to improve the building. They raise the rent so much that people who have lived in the building for years are forced out
