    Review Summary for 415 West 118 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenant reviews for 415 West 118 Street highlight Columbia Residential's efficiency in addressing maintenance requests and pest control. The live-in super is easily accessible for urgent matters. However, concerns exist about outdated elevator and door access systems contributing to package losses. Despite some maintenance issues, residents appreciate the building's proximity to Columbia University and generally peaceful living environment. Suggestions include upgrading entrance security for enhanced safety. Overall, tenants recommend the building for its responsive management but advise on improving unit cleanliness and owner responsiveness.

    Good building for Columbia students
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    - Columbia Residential is very responsive. They address maintenance requests efficiently and without additional charges. This included more expensive requests, such as replacing the washer/dryers in the basement.
    - I have never seen a pest in the building. You often find people cleaning the hallways, and trash doesn't pile up (although the entrance and the trash area can become messy at the end of the semester, when students are moving out and disposing of their furniture)
    - There's a live-in super that can be contacted easily (directly or through Columbia Residential phone lines), so anything urgent can be promptly addressed
    Cons:
    - The elevator and door access are old. The elevator is slow (slow, and you have to keep the "close door" pressed to get it to close), and the door access is an old buzz system, while other Columbia Residential buildings in the area have digital systems already. This might be contributing to lost packages in the building
    Advice to owner:
    Upgrade the entrance system to make the building more secure

    Columbia grad housing
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great space, high ceilings, lots of light, thick walls.
    Cons:
    Student housing means no one cares about the apartment, lots of peeling paint, some mold in shower, a few cockroaches but nothing terrible.
    Advice to owner:
    Need to thoroughly clean apartment units.
