    Review Summary for 110 West 96 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews of 110 West 96 Street highlight a strong sense of community and spacious, quiet apartments favored by families. Residents appreciate the classic Upper West Side charm, thick soundproof walls, and reliable heating. However, maintenance issues are frequent, with continued elevator breakdowns and occasional pest problems. Management responsiveness is generally seen as poor, impacting tenant satisfaction despite the building's cleanliness and water pressure. The absence of a doorman and concerns over rent stabilization changes are additional drawbacks. Overall, while the building offers a comfortable and neighborly environment, improvements in management responsiveness and maintenance could enhance the living experience.
