    Review Summary for 529 West 151 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews depict mixed feelings about 529 WEST 151 STREET. Tenants appreciate the affordable rent and spacious units but express dissatisfaction with maintenance issues, outdated facilities, and poor management responsiveness. Some highlight pest problems, stolen packages, and uncomfortable living conditions. Despite positive aspects like responsive supers and location convenience, the prevalent negative experiences, such as deteriorating living standards, theft incidents, and unaddressed complaints overshadow the building's potential. Recommendations include investing in property upgrades and improving management practices to elevate the overall living experience for tenants.

    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Dirt cheap, plenty of living space for a railroad style unit. Exactly what a roomate and I needed at the time. Also room in the kitchen for barstools and a butcher block to eat at (not everywhere has kitchens like that in Manhattan).
    Cons:
    There really wasn't any investment in maintaining or modernizing the units. No modern fixtures, old cabinets, etc. The tiles in the tiny shower fell out right before I moved out. Maintenance requests were sometimes responded to quickly, but often waited a week or more.
    Advice to owner:
    Invest in the property.

    Worst Management EVER
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    No bugs, new super is nice and responsive
    Cons:
    Management is trying to buy out the people who are in rent stabilized unit, they left us without a kitchen sink for a month, we got the wrong keys on the first day and couldn’t get into the apartment, rent went up $1000. Monarch realty is truly E V I L.
    Advice to owner:
    Remember to treat people like people.
