    Review Summary for 57 East 97 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 57 East 97 Street highlight affordable rent and desirable apartment features like in-unit laundry, dishwasher, and decent-sized layouts. Its location near Central Park and grocery stores is a plus. However, many renters note persistent issues with cleanliness in common areas, particularly stairwells and trash zones, along with an inattentive superintendent who delays repairs and communication. Noise from traffic, ambulance sirens, and thin walls affects comfort, and heating can be inconsistent in winter. Despite some modern renovations, window soundproofing and insulation are lacking. Overall, while the building offers value and convenience, management responsiveness and maintenance need improvement.

    5 years and was great!
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Good rent price! No crazy noise
    Cons:
    No amenities, super is hard to reach, will not fix things unless it’s really needed.

    Less than super Super
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Location is great, apartments are a decent size. Having laundry in unit is a HUGE plus and the kitchen island was a nice feature as well
    Cons:
    The halls and stairwells are filthy. Someone left a half eaten candy bar on the sill in the stairwell in February 2020 and it was over nine months before it was cleaned up. The super is useless- can't fix anything, doesn't pick up his phone, can't remember appts or arrangements if you need to schedule something. Had some significant issues with him over the years we loved there.
    Advice to owner:
    We were promised the lobby would be cleaned and renovated shortly after we moved in and it's still gross. Get a new super who does more than sit on the stoop all day and smoke
