Review Summary for 601 West 137 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent tenants appreciate the efficient pest control, proximity to the subway, and responsive super and maintenance team at 601 West 137 Street. However, concerns about safety, unresponsive management, elevator reliability, and occasional heating issues have been noted. Renters also find the rent over-priced for the neighborhood. Suggestions include better communication with tenants and addressing elevator maintenance promptly to enhance the overall living experience. Despite some drawbacks, tenants generally recommend the building for its location and neighborhood vibrancy, making it a suitable choice for those seeking convenience in Manhattan.
