    Review Summary for 556 West 114 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 556 West 114th Street highlight the building's popularity among Columbia students due to quietness and single rooms. However, issues with overflowing showers and cramped kitchens have been noted. Positive aspects include natural sunlight and suite-style apartments, but problems with heating and laundry facilities persist. Residents appreciate the proximity to Columbia University but suggest improvements in maintenance and laundry services. Despite some flaws, the building's location and amenities make it a favorable choice for students, with a majority recommending it for its convenience and overall experience.
