    Review Summary for 248 W 105 St
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 248 West 105th Street depict a mixed experience. Tenants praise the building's cleanliness, efficient garbage management, and considerate neighbors.

Common concerns include persistent boiler problems, inadequate maintenance of laundry facilities, and occasional pest infestations.
