Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent tenants of 520 W 190 St appreciate the proximity to the train station and friendly neighbors. However, recurring issues with package theft, pests, and maintenance overshadow the positives. Concerns about security, lack of modern amenities, and building upkeep have been raised. Despite some positives like affordable rent and decent response to repair requests, the building's overall condition, especially outdated infrastructure, and cleanliness need significant improvement. Renters recommend enhancing security measures, addressing pest control effectively, and investing in building maintenance for a more comfortable living experience.
