Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

The building at 505 East 88 Street has a mix of positives and significant concerns based on recent reviews. Tenants appreciate the nice neighbors, quiet atmosphere, and the good location on a quiet street. Management is generally responsive to urgent repair requests, and some find the building clean with effective pest control. However, issues such as persistent pest problems (rats and roaches), cleanliness notably in common areas, garbage management, slow or inconsistent owner responsiveness, and occasional heating difficulties are common complaints. The building would benefit from improved maintenance of shared spaces, quicker follow-up on tenant requests, and stricter pest control to enhance the living experience.
