    Review Summary for 15 West 103 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 15 West 103 Street emphasize the building's excellent location near the park and friendly maintenance staff as notable positives. Many renters appreciate the well-designed units and quiet atmosphere with good neighbors. However, persistent issues with pest control, heating inefficiencies, noise from hallways, and landlord responsiveness have been frequently cited. Some tenants report problems such as roof leaks, garbage management challenges, and concerns over security deposit handling. While management turnover has caused some confusion, maintenance tends to resolve issues eventually. Rent increases and building upkeep remain key renter concerns despite the appealing neighborhood and attractive apartment features.

    Lived there for 3 years and it was great
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Very pretty building with pretty back view of community garden. Well designed unit. I worked with an incredible broker named Mary at centennial properties. Highly recommend her. And Larry to the super in the building at the time is also incredible.
    Cons:
    I don't have any! Management definitely had a lot of turnover so it was often confusing and a little frustrating, but they always fixed things eventually. And nothing in my apartment was ever an actual emergency so I didn't mind. The heaters in the bedroom at the back of the apartment in my unit (most windows) didn't heat up very well but that's because of the little radiators and not something they can actually fix.
    Advice to owner:
    Find some way to heat the back bedroom better, otherwise satisfactory ! Mary and Larry and great!

    Nice Staff, Centennial is Not a Great Landlord
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The maintenance staff were very friendly and helpful
    Cons:
    Centennial will do anything to keep your security deposit, you have to have clear proof from your lease and emails they've sent to you to back up why you deserve your money back (and they'll still send it late).
    You can hear EVERYTHING in the hallways in your own apartment.
