    Review Summary for 1781 Riverside Drive
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews of 1781 Riverside Drive reflect a mix of positive aspects and notable challenges. Tenants appreciate the building’s spacious pre-war apartments, proximity to parks and the river, and a generally quiet atmosphere with good heating and water pressure. The super is often described as helpful, although language barriers and responsiveness issues exist. Common complaints include pest infestations despite regular extermination, ongoing laundry room closures, cleanliness problems in common areas, and costly laundry facilities. Noise from neighboring units and maintenance delays are also concerns. While some renters recommend the building for its location and community, others advise management to enhance pest control, cleanliness, and amenity upkeep.

    Nice apartment, pests issues.
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Large apartments. Close to parks, pretty good heat in winter.
    Cons:
    Pests! No matter what you do there are so many bugs! The super is a nice guy but doesn’t speak any English(Inwood), so I can’t communicate with him.
    Advice to owner:
    More regular pest control. They should knock on everyone’s door instead of a sign up.

    Solid apartment
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    No stairs going into building. Great for strollers. Super is amazing. Building is quiet and good neighbors.
    Cons:
    Biggest complaint is washer dryer. Waited for years to get it and then once they are working they charge prices way to high for laundry.
    Advice to owner:
    Lower prices on washer and dryer.
