Review Summary for 34 Watts Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 34 Watts Street in Manhattan underscore its desirable Soho location and proximity to subway stops as major benefits. Tenants acknowledge generally responsive management and decent water pressure, yet express frustration over persistent issues like pervasive cigar smoke from the bar below and relentless traffic noise due to proximity to the Holland Tunnel. Cleanliness and pest control receive mixed feedback, with some citing roach and mouse problems. Heating works well for some, but others report discomfort. Noise levels and cigarette odor notably detract from living comfort. Overall, the building suits those valuing location but may frustrate renters sensitive to noise and air quality.

Hot and loud. Would not recommend
Former Tenant
Pros:
Location for going places but at the apartment you wish you weren't there
Cons:
Leave right next to the new holland tunnel entrance you will hear traffic 24/7 and you will not become immune to the honking. The place is also always hot. If you're a person that runs cold this place is perfect for you!
Advice to owner:
Fix the heat and replace the windows so that you can block out the noise
