Reviews of 103 West 97 Street

Former tenant·5 months ago

Overall great experience

Pros

The amenities are great, including the gym, in-unit dishwasher, and in-unit laundry (though I understand not everyone in the building has these. There’s a pool but I’ve never actually used it. The building staff is very friendly and attentive. The place is very clean and spacious. Overall I’ve loved living here!

Cons

The elevators have had some issues from time to time. I also had a leak when I first moved in coming from my bedroom window. It took awhile for them to figure out what was causing it, but they eventually did and were able to fix it.
