    Review Summary for 1691 Broadway
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenant reviews highlight 1691 Broadway's prime location and amenities like in-unit laundry and functioning elevators. However, concerns arise regarding occasional maintenance issues and pests. While some enjoyed the responsive owner and well-kept interior units, others complained of poor cleanliness and noise issues. Thin walls allow neighbors to be heard, and problems like rats in the basement persist. Mixed opinions exist on the landlord, with some praising responsiveness and others labeling them as neglectful. Despite some drawbacks, the building's central location and amenities make it a generally recommended option for renters seeking convenience in Manhattan.

    Well located building, with necessary amenities
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    My place had laundry in-unit, as well as 2 baths. The place was is good condition. Building had functioning elevator.
    Cons:
    Front door was often left open, as the building shares a back entrance with a commercial unit in ground-floor. Inventory coming in and out daily.

    Nicer on the inside than out
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The interior units are nice and ceilings are very high which makes it feel more spacious.
    Cons:
    High ceilings makes heating more difficult and A/C more expensive.
    Brokers are a bit scummy. Used obvious fabricated stories to try to convince me to put a deposit down.
    Advice to owner:
    None. Property is what it is.
