Review Summary for 18 West 48 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews of 18 West 48 Street highlight its prime Manhattan location near Rockefeller Center and subway access, appealing to renters valuing convenience. The building is praised for clean apartments, attentive doormen, and effective pest control. However, issues with noise due to thin walls and neighbor disturbances are commonly reported. Amenities, including the gym and roof access, are limited or closed, with some renters finding the rent expensive for what’s offered. Owner responsiveness varies, with several complaints about slow maintenance and unresolved repairs. Water pressure and hallway upkeep receive mixed feedback, and some residents mention unfriendly staff. Overall, the building suits those prioritizing location and staff kindness but may frustrate noise-sensitive renters.
