    Review Summary for 481 8 Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    The building at 481 8 Avenue in Manhattan, NY 10001 is generally well-maintained and conveniently located near major train lines and Penn Station. Residents appreciate the amenities such as a doorman, laundry, and the easy access to transportation. Noise levels and occasional maintenance issues are drawbacks, especially due to the building's age. Despite some concerns, the management is responsive and quick to address issues. Some renters have noted pest problems and noisy surroundings, but overall, it is considered a solid option for student housing or temporary stays in New York City.
