Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Reviews for 536 West 143 Street highlight its convenient location and relatively friendly neighbors as positives. Some tenants note affordable rent compared to other buildings. However, common issues include poor cleanliness and maintenance, frequent pest problems, and inconsistent heat and water pressure. Garbage management and noise levels receive mixed feedback.

While a few residents find the environment quiet and the building somewhat manageable, the overall experience is marred by maintenance neglect and pest infestations, making it a challenging place for renters seeking reliability and upkeep.
