    Review Summary for 715 East 5 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenant reviews for 715 East 5 Street in Manhattan highlight a quiet street with nearby amenities like bars and parks. However, the building faces challenges such as an old heating system leading to winter heat shortages. Some renters mention issues like a creepy neighbor, loud parties, and occasional door malfunctions. Complaints include ineffective pest control, difficult communication with the landlord, and overall inadequate maintenance. Suggestions for improvement include renovations and addressing the pest problem. While some aspects are positive, like a virtual doorman and good water pressure, overall satisfaction is mixed, with recommendations to enhance building conditions.
