Review Summary for The Biltmore
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Tenant reviews of 271 West 47 Street reveal a mix of positives and challenges. The building offers well-renovated apartments with in-unit washer/dryers, good layouts, and some nice views. Its central Midtown location and access to subways are convenient. Staff such as doormen and supers receive praise. However, persistent problems include unreliable elevators, slow or poor management responsiveness, prolonged construction noise, and high rent with added fees. Noise from nearby Times Square and a fire station disturbs many residents. Cleanliness and pest control ratings vary, and some find amenities and maintenance below expectations. Overall, renters value the apartments but express frustration with management and building maintenance.

Not recommended, loud
Former Tenant
Pros:
in unit W/D, doorman, elevator working well
Cons:
times square is right across from the street and can hear the noise until 3 am. siren is off all nights and I am going crazy. Doormen are not the nicest, package room hours are limited (opens til 8pm)
