Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews of 520 East 20 Street emphasize responsive and attentive management, cleanliness, and generally quiet, safe surroundings with friendly neighbors. Many tenants praise the spacious apartments and strong water pressure. However, recurring pest issues, particularly roaches, have been noted, along with occasional maintenance delays like slow flood repairs.

Noise is typically low except for specific winter disturbances. Overall, the building appeals to those valuing responsiveness, safety, and a family-friendly environment, though pest control and HVAC upgrades would enhance tenant satisfaction.
