Review Summary for 236 East 36 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews of 236 East 36 Street highlight a friendly, attentive doorman staff and convenient location near stores and transit. The building is generally clean with well-managed garbage disposal and amenities like a gym and laundry. However, some tenants report pest issues, notably cockroaches, and occasional mold concerns. Heating performance varies, with some experiencing poor heat in winter. Noise levels and neighbors receive mixed feedback, including complaints about cigarette smoke in hallways. Water pressure and owner responsiveness are rated moderately. Management communication, especially around rent renewal, can be rigid. Overall, it suits those prioritizing location and staff friendliness but might require pest control and infrastructure improvements.

Not amazing, but not horrible either
Former Tenant
Pros:
Doormen and staff are top notch. Friendly and always servicable.
Rent pricing is great for the location.
Being nearby the 35th St ferry is awesome and I will miss this.
Cons:
Bad neighbors. Cigarette smoke in the hallways on the weekends. There was a roach problem earlier this year (gotten better, but we'll see).
