    Review Summary for 655 2 Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenant feedback for 655 2 Avenue highlights its spacious apartments with good natural light and appealing features like top-floor terraces and Juliet balconies. The building benefits from a convenient location near restaurants, parks, and grocery stores, attracting renters valuing accessibility. Neighbors are generally quiet and respectful, creating a comfortable community atmosphere. However, some challenges persist, including occasional pest issues in common areas, noisy street-facing units, and inconsistent owner responsiveness. Laundry facilities often receive criticism for being dirty and unreliable. Rent increases post-COVID have caused tenant turnover, with calls for better management practices and loyalty rewards. Overall, it's a decent option for renters prioritizing space and location in Murray Hill.
