    Review Summary for 215 East 68 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 215 East 68 Street emphasize spacious, well-designed apartments with ample storage and excellent cleanliness. Residents praise the attentive on-site staff, including doormen and superintendents, contributing to a secure and pleasant environment. The building offers strong heating, quiet noise levels, and effective pest control. However, management responsiveness is frequently criticized, noted as slow or unaccommodating, with reports of corporate-style detachment and difficult communication. Some tenants feel rent increases are not aligned with service quality, and the basement facilities are described as unattractive. Despite these drawbacks, many renters still recommend the building for its location and apartment quality.

    4 star apartments at 5 star prices
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great floorplans and on-site staff
    Cons:
    Raised our rent 40%, and insurance requirements make it really difficult to get anything delivered

    2 years with mixed feelings
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Very good front desk and supporting staff
    Large apartments with lots of storage and sunlight
    Great Location
    Lovely and convenient driveway
    Cons:
    Super sucks! Didn’t see him for the entire 2 year period and was rude and unaccommodating on the day of move out
    Management is a bit too corporate
    Basement where gym, laundry, delivery room etc are located is terrible. Feels like you’re under a commercial building like a stadium not an apartment building
    Advice to owner:
    Improve the building and services to compete with other building that charge similar rents
