I was struggling to find a place in NY especially because I only needed a 3-month lease. Friends suggested roomrs and my experience with the team was seamless. My apartment is great, comfortable and has all the amenities I need. Would definitely recommend!

Thank you for the kind words and the recommendation! Short-term leases are notoriously tough to find in NYC, and it's one of the gaps Roomrs was specifically built to fill, so it's great to hear the team and the apartment delivered on that. Comfortable, amenity-ready spaces with flexible terms is exactly what we aim for. Hope to have the opportunity to host you again down the line.
Thanks,

Roomrs has been absolutely wonderful

Roomrs has been absolutely wonderful. Their staff are top notch, their sales representatives are highly accommodating and provide great customer support, and their rooms are really nice and good quality. For a service that is focused on sub-leasing, I was very skeptical at first hearing so many bad horror stories when I moved to NYC about living with roommates, but Roomrs makes the process so seamless and effortless without unnecessary fees or broker costs. I was living in East Harlem and had a three bedroom apartment all by myself for several months, and now I live in the heart of SoHo for a sublease that is well below market rate and that includes modern appliances, a dishwasher, and a washer/dryer in-unit. The apartments vary in sizing, so I would say the only disadvantage is the inability to actually view the apartments. The virtual showings and website provide a really good UI/UX, but nothing beats seeing an apartment in person. Overall, I highly recommend and thank my first broker in NYC for the introduction to Roomrs.

Thank you for such a thoughtful and detailed review! Sub-leasing in NYC has earned its reputation, so it really means something to hear we were able to make the process feel seamless and that the apartments lived up to expectations - especially across multiple stays in great neighborhoods. We also appreciate the honest feedback on in-person viewings; it's something we hear and continue to think about as we look for ways to improve the search experience. Really appreciate the recommendation.
Take care,

I had a great experience with roomrs

I had a great experience with roomrs! I lived in one of their apartments in NYC (Chinatown) for three months and my room (incl. private bathroom) was spacious and very beautiful - exactly as shown in the 3D tour on their website. Their service was excellent, all issues (broken chair and lamp) were quickly taken care of. My roommates and the neighborhood were amazing too! It was a bit noisy at night, but I guess that's to be expected in Manhattan. I really had a great time and would recommend it to my friends!

Thank you for sharing this and for the recommendation! A spacious, beautiful room that matches the 3D tour and quick turnaround on any issues that come up are exactly the standards we hold ourselves to, so it's great to hear all of that landed for you. Manhattan does come with its own soundtrack at night - fair point - but we're glad it didn't get in the way of a great stay overall.

Unprofessional. If you don't want to apply same day as tour you get ghosted

Had funds to move, was going to apply for a room in NY coming from west coast. Had a second tour with Zack virtually. Sadly my connection while discussing the room on my laptop was bad. So I switched to the Zoom on my phone where I had a strong connection. Halfway through, Zack ended the call and I didn't hear back from him. I even sent another follow up email and received no response. If you want unprofessional service before and during the place you're going to live, go for Roomrs. However I'm going to keep looking because Roomrs has done nothing but waste my time, especially with high pressure sales tactics.

Reply from Roomrs

We respectfully disagree with the characterization of this experience. Zack spent a significant amount of time assisting with tours, questions, and follow-up regarding potential housing options, including conducting multiple virtual walkthroughs. During the second tour, there were connection issues, and by the time communication was restored and follow-up attempts were made, a public review had already been posted.

We also strongly reject the implication that Roomrs utilizes “high pressure sales tactics.” Prospective members are never required to apply same-day, and many residents take time after touring to consider their options before moving forward.

That said, we are sorry the experience ultimately felt frustrating from your perspective, and we appreciate the time spent considering Roomrs as a housing option.
Take care,

Roomrs helped me to feel home while moving to NYC with a great, reactive and easy communication with sales and customer service.

I would be wary of any 5 star reviews

I would be wary of any 5 star reviews. I left my lease after 2 months because Roomrs did not provide what I was sold on. I experienced:
-Hair in the bedding, handprints on walls, & cobwebs in my room when I arrived.
-Junk filling up the common space and kitchen from old tenants. The furniture is stained, shabby, and dirty.
-Black mold in the bathroom.
-I was not allowed to store my bike in the stairwell, which was promised by the sales rep Mikey when I was first interested in Roomrs. He called to harass me when I brought it up with Support.
-No working AC for 3.5 weeks.
-No attempt by Support to recover a stolen package.
-They come up with "policies" never outline to get you to pay extra.
-Slow, unhelpful Support who you have to beg to resolve issues. They hold themselves to no accountability.

Horrible experience with this company lacking integrity.

We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations. At the same time, we do want to respectfully object to several characterizations made in this review, including the implication that Roomrs lacks integrity or intentionally misleads residents. Our team regularly coordinated maintenance, cleaning, vendor scheduling, package support, and communication efforts throughout your stay, including with respect to AC-related issues and shared-space concerns.
We also strongly disagree with the suggestion that Roomrs fabricates or manipulates reviews. Feedback left by residents reflects individual experiences, and while not every experience is perfect, many members have had positive stays with us across our apartments throughout New York City.
That said, we understand that issues involving cleanliness, cooling, shared spaces, or communication responsiveness can be frustrating, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your perspective.
If you'd be open to discuss further, please email us at support@roomrs.com.
Best,
The Roomrs Team

My experience with roomors was very satisfactory. I think the main thing is how convenient it is because they provide bed sheets, towels, and all kinds of kitchen utensils and cleaning supplies. The support service is excellent and I have already recommended Roomors to my friends.

Mice infestations - avoid Roomrs

I would never rent from Roomrs again. The apartment I am living in is infested with mice. The other tenants told me there were problems with mice before I moved in yet Roomrs still rented the room to me instead of fixing the issue first. Despite making three separate reports to Roomrs after seeing three different mice since I moved in, no pest control or extermination has been carried out. The building's super (who is not employed by Roomrs) came once, promised to return and carry out repair works and hasn't been seen since. The support staff are unhelpful and unwilling to resolve issues in an effective or timely manner. Roomrs fails in its obligations as a landlord to keep the property free of pests. I would not recommend renting from Roomrs. It also offers tenants $100 for five-star reviews so be wary of positive reviews.

We're truly sorry to hear that your experience has not met expectations. Pest issues are something we take very seriously, and it's not the standard of living we want any of our members to have. We'd also like to clarify that we do not provide compensation in exchange for positive reviews; we welcome honest feedback from all members regardless of their rating. We'd really like the opportunity to learn more about what happened with your reports and address the situation directly.
Please reach out to us at support@roomrs.com so we can look into this and make it right.

roomrs experience

I moved to New York, and choosing Roomrs was the best decision I made to find a room in Manhattan! From the beginning, they helped me find the perfect option for my needs. The process was quick, and I had no issues at all. The apartment is well-equipped, and it's great that you can easily reach out to them whenever you need. I love my neighborhood; East Harlem is a fantastic area to live in with plenty of places to explore and easy access to the subway!
If you’re looking for an apartment, definitely reach out to Roomrs. They’re really fast and help with everything you need.

very good experience living in a Roomrs' apartment

My experience in a Roomrs apartment was very good. I would recommend it to anyone looking for accommodation in New York. I lived in East Harlem and completely loved the neighborhood and my building. The apartments are well equipped, there is a wide variety of prices and they have many options in the best areas of the city. Also, the customer service is highly functional as they are very attentive and fast. It was so easy to find an apartment that would suit my needs. 5 stars!!

Great Experience

Roomrs made it much simpler to find an apartment for my last semester in NYC. Rather than signing a full year lease, I was able to sign for just a few months, allowing me to save a lot of money, especially as the apartment is fully furnished. Great customer service. Quick to answer any and all questions. Apartments are in incredible locations, and everything is provided. Really great experience.

Thank you for sharing this! Short-term leases that don't lock you into a full year are one of the gaps Roomrs was specifically built to fill, especially for students wrapping up a semester in NYC.
