    I paid Zen Home Cleaning to clean my apartment and came home to find it vandalized. They somehow broke a gas stove (wtf?), left a cast iron pan soaking in the sink, left windows open and lights on for a weekend I was gone, and threw random things into a closet with dirty cleaning supplies and an I rinsed mop bucket on top. Shame on them. Edit: my super replaced two circuit board in the oven, valued at approximately $500, due to water damage. He said he's seen this in the past when someone pours large amounts of water onto the stovetop in order to try and soak it to remove grease. I suppose that's on the same mental wavelength as soaking a cast iron pan. Anyone could google whether they should do these things and find a page full of links telling them they will cause damage. I also found a voicemail from one of my doormen from when I was away over the weekend saying a neighbor had reported that my door was left wide open. Thankfully, they came up and closed it, and I live in a safe building.

    I don't think I've ever written a negative review, but this was truly the worst home cleaning experience I have ever had and I wanted to warn others. TL;DR: they tried to charge me additional money part way through the cleaning because the cleaner "needed more time" and left the apartment dirty, with dust, crumbs, and dirt piles throughout. The details: 1. PRICE INCREASE MID-CLEANING: Two hours after the cleaning started, I received an e-mail from Zen Home saying the cleaner needed 30 more minutes, which they would charge me for (65/hour). I said that was not okay, especially since they had already told me the cost and charged me. I also live in a studio apartment, so it seemed very sketchy the cleaner would need to "get used to the layout" as they claimed. When I said no, they told me they could have the cleaner leave, but that would mean he wouldn't do the floors. At this point he'd been there for three hours; the floors are the primary component of cleaning a studio apartment, so I said I wanted the floors done at no extra charge, to complete the service promised. 2. DIRTY APARTMENT: I didn't hear back after the last email, but I got up to my apartment and was genuinely shocked at the condition of it. I will have to clean it myself as you'll see from the pictures I found a) Food crumbs on the coffee table, which clearly hadn't been touched; b) A sticky, unclean kitchen countertop, which hadn't been wiped; c) Dirt and dust piles in various locations on the floor; d) A dirty floor steamer ragged hung over my clean hand towels in the bathroom. I booked Zen Home because I wanted a top-notch, luxury cleaning and was willing to pay top dollar for it. I've written to their customer service and am waiting to hear about a refund, but I would highly recommend going with the many other cleaning services available in NYC.

    Amazing! Very thorough and friendly cleaners! Easy to schedule and very communicativeread more

    I'm extremely happy with the cleaning service we received. We had just finished renovating our…read moreentire apartment and needed a very thorough post-construction deep cleaning before moving in. There was fine dust and residue everywhere, including inside cabinets and closets, along the floors and baseboards, around windows, and throughout the kitchen and bathroom. The whole process could not have gone more smoothly. Everything was very well organized from the beginning, and the cleaner actually arrived earlier than our scheduled appointment, which was a great start. He was professional, efficient, and incredibly detailed with the cleaning. You could tell he wasn't just rushing through the apartment -- he really took the time to make sure everything was properly cleaned. By the time he finished, the apartment looked amazing. The renovation dust was gone, everything felt fresh and spotless, and we were able to walk into a space that genuinely felt ready for us to move into. There wasn't anything we were unhappy with or felt needed to be redone. It was such a seamless and stress-free experience, especially after dealing with all the work involved in a renovation. Great communication, punctual service, excellent attention to detail, and most importantly, excellent results. I would absolutely book them again and would highly recommend them to anyone who needs a deep cleaning or post-renovation cleaning.
