    Review Summary for 129 2 Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenant reviews for 129 2 Avenue highlight severe issues with cleanliness, garbage management, and pest control. Residents complain of unresponsive management, tiny apartments, noisy neighbors, and inadequate sunlight. The prime location is the only redeeming quality, although even that is overshadowed by the overwhelming trash situation in the hallways. Suggestions include more frequent garbage disposal and better response from the management. The prevalent rat and mice infestation, along with the lack of care for tenant concerns, lead to strong disapproval from renters and a clear lack of recommendation for staying in this building.
