Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant reviews for 265 East 66 Street praise the building's great location, spacious apartments, appealing views, and courteous doormen and staff. Amenities such as the rooftop pool and gym receive positive mentions. However, persistent issues adversely affect living conditions, including frequent elevator outages, poor heating in winter, ineffective AC in summer, water interruptions, and loud street noise on lower floors. Management consistently faces criticism for unresponsiveness, delayed repairs, unexpected high rent increases, and poor communication. Tenants urge for better investment in maintenance and improved owner attentiveness. Despite a few supportive staff members, the overall experience is marred by infrastructure and management shortcomings.

Building requires investment

Pros

Great floor plans, large rooms, nice views, really courteous staff

Cons

Heat does not work sufficiently in the winter. Apartments are scorching hot (>80 degrees) in the summer with AC on maximum. At least one elevator out of service at a time. Management unresponsive and overwhelmed by the magnitude of tenant complaints.

Advice to the owners

Invest appropriately in the building so that basic needs (heat/AC/hot water/elevators) are met.
