Review by: Caroline D., Jul 02 2015 From: France, Apartment Share Rental: 5 months |
During my stay, I only saw my roommates but never talked with them. Bad atmosphere in the apartment, which is dirty and badly maintained. Apartment cleaning is done once a month only when the landlady comes in. There are no vacuum cleaner and only a few cleaning products. The bathroom and the restrooms are almost squalid: the shower tap holds thanks to scotch tape, there is not enough space to put your belongings and hot water is sometimes missing. The door does not lock. There are cockroaches in and around the sink, as well as on the kitchen and bathroom walls. Because of them, I had to put all the food in freezer bags. I had to buy some airtight plastic containers. Kitchen is poorly equipped (a few plates and cutlery, etc) and towels are dirty. I never had a meal in the kitchen as it was too dirty. Besides, I cohabited (during more than 2 months) with a mouse which was recalcitrant to all the extermination products I bought. Someone came to disinfect my bedroom but it was useless. Regarding safety, the bedroom door does not lock and the window is broken so that anybody can come in (there is a fire escape). The only positive points (if any) are the proximity to the subway lines, as well as the laundromat and the supermarket. The rental price is not consistent with the service offered. |

Dear Caroline it is very unfortunate that your experience in my home was such. It was not brought to my attention that you had so many concerns especially considering my regular tenants have not notified me of the same experience. If you had mentioned that the kitchen was lacking supplies, I would have gladly replaced them. |

Thank you, Caroline, for your honest feedback. After receiving your review, we revisited the apartment. Please know that the bathroom shower tap has now been renovated. Kind regards |

Very quiet apartment in a safe location. The owner provided amenities like bedding, towels, dishes, cooking utensils. First time living in NYC and owner was very welcoming and knowledgeable about the area. |

I strongly recommend this apartment in New York. The roommates are wonderful; the landlord is helpful; the apartment is in good conditions, in a quiet area and close to everything. |

Further to this review, we contacted the owner of this apartment who confirmed that she has resolved the issue with the mice and they are no longer in the apartment. They keep the apartment clean and with no open food anywhere. The Internet issue was looked into and the signal is functioning normal. The owner says that it is true, the apartment can get very warm, but they have air conditioning in each room and the windows can also be opened. |
