    Review Summary for 50 West 90 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Tenant reviews for 50 West 90 Street reveal a mixed experience. The building benefits from a quiet Upper West Side location with friendly neighbors and generally responsive management handling critical repairs well. However, persistent issues include problematic laundry facilities, dimly lit common areas, inconsistent cleanliness, occasional pest problems (rats, roaches, pigeons), and concerns about security and homeless presence on premises. Water pressure and heating have received varied feedback, while garbage management and pest control need improvement. Some tenants appreciate the historic charm and community feel, but others criticize management's dismissive attitude and lack of proactive building care.
