Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 233 West 109 Street reveal a mixed experience. Tenants appreciate the prime location near Columbia University, spacious rooms with high ceilings, and some modern amenities like in-unit laundry and dishwashers. Neighbors are mostly friendly, and water pressure is generally good. However, persistent pest issues dominate complaints, with frequent infestations of rats, cockroaches, and mice both in apartments and around the street. Garbage management and cleanliness receive low marks, and many renters report poor landlord responsiveness and maintenance delays. Noise levels are relatively moderate, but overall dissatisfaction with building upkeep and management affects tenant recommendations.
