    Review Summary for The Heritage
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenant reviews for 1295 5 Avenue in Manhattan indicate mixed feedback. Positives include proximity to Central Park, amenities like Amazon lockers and a gym, and clean units post-renovation. However, issues with roaches, slow management responses, ongoing construction causing noise disruptions, and unexpected rent hikes have been highlighted. Concerns about security, neighbor disturbances, and maintenance delays also surfaced. Although there are positive aspects like good water pressure and helpful staff, addressing pest control, management responsiveness, and overall building upkeep are areas that need improvement to enhance the living experience in this building.
