Review Summary for 230 West 97 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews highlight severe issues with pests, particularly mice infestation throughout the building. Tenants express frustration with ineffective extermination efforts, unresponsive management, and subpar building maintenance, such as dirty hallways and ongoing pest problems. Despite positive aspects like a good location and modern amenities, the prevalent mice problem, unprofessional staff, and poor living conditions result in a lack of tenant satisfaction. There is a consensus among renters advising against choosing this building due to the persistent pest control issues and management shortcomings.
