Review Summary for 515 West 48 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews of 515 West 48 Street highlight its convenient location and modern units as main benefits. However, significant concerns include poor management and owner responsiveness, with multiple reports of unresolved maintenance issues such as heating failures, water leaks, and inadequate trash facilities. Pest control and cleanliness are consistently rated low, contributing to tenant dissatisfaction. Noise levels and neighbors receive mixed feedback, generally moderate. Several renters express frustration over rising rents and the building's conversion to short-term rentals, impacting long-term tenant stability. Overall, management’s lack of engagement and disregard for tenant comfort are key drawbacks, overshadowing the building’s otherwise favorable location and layout.

Combative Super and Bad Management
Former Tenant
Pros:
Convenient location, units are modern/updated. Has all the in-unit amenities you’d want.
Cons:
Super verbally harassed and swore at me after raising an urgent issue where water was leaking out my fuse box and lights.
Management does not respond and does not care for the property; inadequate trash facilities, trash accumulation, dirt.
No hot water for over 24hrs with no communication by management.
