Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Tenants of 101 West 90 Street praise the building's excellent location, friendly doormen, and overall cleanliness. Apartments are spacious with good storage, some featuring in-unit washers and dryers. The quiet environment and well-maintained courtyard add to appeal. However, many renters highlight serious issues with heating inefficiency due to poor insulation and outdated windows, leading to high electric bills. Management’s responsiveness is mixed, with some finding staff helpful while others report slow or unresponsive lease administration. Noise from neighboring buildings and elevator wait times are concerns as well. Despite drawbacks, most tenants recommend this building for its community feel and staff.

OK but over-priced
Former Tenant
Pros:
Very clean building, no pests, great location. The staff are very friendly.
Cons:
You have to pay for electric heat which is pricey and the AC is absurdly loud. Management can be hard to reach via email. No gym or rooftop.
Advice to owner:
update heaters and AC units. Be willing to negotiate with tenants who want to stay.
