    Review Summary for Ocean
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews of 1 West Street in Manhattan reveal strong points such as friendly, helpful staff including doormen and maintenance, a beautiful lobby, rooftop access, and convenient amenities like on-site laundry and a gym with Lifetime Fitness membership. Apartments often feature large windows with impressive views and modern kitchens. The building is pet friendly and located near Battery Park and multiple subway lines, offering great access and safety. However, several renters cite management issues including slow responsiveness, frequent rent hikes, elevator malfunctions, and occasional pest problems. Noise from nearby construction and thin walls are notable drawbacks. Overall, it's a well-maintained luxury building with high rent that appeals to those prioritizing location and amenities.
