Review Summary for 338 East 55 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews of 338 East 55 Street commend its quiet, clean environment and excellent location with easy subway access and proximity to parks. Residents value the building's peacefulness, friendly neighbors, and strong water pressure. However, some tenants noted pest control issues, particularly with roaches linked to basement trash management, and occasional maintenance delays like unfinished repairs. While many appreciate responsive management and a well-maintained atmosphere, others suggest improved pest control and more timely upkeep to enhance living conditions. Overall, the building offers convenience and tranquility but could benefit from addressing maintenance and pest concerns.
