    Review Summary for 936 West End Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Reviews for 936 West End Avenue, Manhattan, NY 10025, depict a building with a desirable location near transportation and shops, appealing especially to students and short-term renters. Units are relatively affordable with some furnished options. However, significant issues dominate renter experiences, including persistent pest infestations (roaches, rats), poor cleanliness, frequent maintenance neglect, and a problematic, often unresponsive superintendent. Residents report security concerns such as unlocked doors and homeless trespassing. Plumbing issues and outdated building features are common, with calls for major renovations and management overhaul to improve overall living conditions. Despite these drawbacks, neighbors are generally friendly, and the building offers basic comfort.

    Decent for the price but not the best
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Good location; near shops along Broadway. Relatively affordable and great for students. Some units are fully furnished, which is great for short-term stays / internationals.
    Cons:
    No in-building laundry. The unit could use some major renovation, as you can see, with small details like cracks and peeling floor varnish. The building access machine could be upgraded to allow packages to be dropped off even when the no one is in.
    Advice to owner:
    Major renovations to the building and the units.
