Delta Room Rentals

Very mixed reviews, so let me drop my 2 cents as well. In January 2016, coming from Netherlands to New York City to study 5 months, i had to find a place i could stay in Manhattan that wasn't expensive. (Yeah I'm a very naively optimistic guy and I'm proud of that.) I didn't want to secure a place online before my arrival in US because of the many scams on internet i discovered. So i decided to stay in a hostel for the first 2 weeks and start my search from there. After spending so much time on internet, i became really desperate and frustrated. No way i would ever find a place around 700$ in Manhattan. I then found delta rooms somewhere on the 10th Google results page. (Lol) I don't remember why but i decided to visit their office, which at the time (2016!) looked quite shady ahah. Some latino lady tells me to fill in a form and pay $150 or 200$ upfront, which i found odd but i did anyway. I did receive a proof of payment. She then literally gives me 3 small pieces of paper with addresses scribbled on. She also tells me that if neither of those 3 options appealed to me, i could come back and ask for new ones. I was very skeptical about this but i didn't have much choice i had already realized. Option 1: large room in Harlem in a clean apartment of an Ecuadorian family: father, mother and their son who was my age. There was a double bed plus a lot of space around it. That was 750$ dollar/month. Option 2: was dirty and there was a dog barking very loudly. Option 3: small room with only a bed and no space to even stand haha. Option 2 & 3 were around 800-850$ if i remember correctly. They gave me some days to think about my choices. I obviously took option 1 and that was really great. My room was right when you entered the apartment on the right side, next to that was the bathroom, next the kitchen. Then; there was the living room and bedrooms at the end of the apartment but i didn't have to go there as i only needed the bathroom and kitchen. I never had any problems with the family, never any disturbance. They were really kind. I had beers with their son at a bar once or twice to watch a game. I think we reached a personal agreement for that room that was lower than the original: 700$/month instead of the 750$. And the location was great; just 10 mins or so to Times Square with the metro. Why this review? Because unlike all of the other agencies i came across, this one was simple and easy: "you pay once, we help you find a place". No complicated structures or credit check BS or ridiculous fees/ prices or hidden info or whatever nonsense. Having said that, i can only speak from my own personal experience. Maybe I was very lucky with my place, i don't know. Either way, i was quite happy they took a heavy burden off my shoulders in an instant. I would have still been searching for months for the right place at the right price. Thanks Delta Rooms!

Honestly a waste of time and money. Very unprofessional. Not worth it.

Bad and terrible all the way through. Couldn't answer any of my questions. Did not have any studio or 1 bedrooms. I call and ask before I came. He said yes and when I get there he didn't have any. After telling me to come in to see them. Very unprofessional.
