Review Summary for 965 Amsterdam Avenue
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews of 965 Amsterdam Avenue reveal a building with a convenient location near subways and a generally good layout, featuring pleasant bathrooms and usable door fobs. Neighbors are described as reasonably friendly, and the heating and water pressure are mostly adequate. However, multiple tenants report persistent cockroach infestations and poor overall cleanliness, which detracts from the living experience. Garbage management and noise levels receive mixed feedback, with some concerns about package theft. Owner responsiveness is seen as average, with divided opinions on management approval. While some recommend the building for its convenience, pest control and cleanliness remain significant issues to address.
