Review Summary for 228 East 135 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews for 228 East 135 Street highlight a modern building with appealing amenities like a gym, laundry, and organized mail areas. Many tenants praise the friendly staff and decent apartment layouts. However, issues such as inconsistent heating, occasional pest problems, and management responsiveness vary widely. Noise levels and neighbor behavior are mixed, with some citing disturbances and rude conduct. Garbage management and maintenance of common areas, including elevators and rooftop access, need improvement. Rent pricing is considered high relative to apartment size and neighborhood safety concerns. Stricter enforcement of building rules and improved management communication are frequently advised for a better living experience.

Former Tenant
Pros:
Good amenities, clean.
Cons:
They built a nice building but they don't want to take care of it. The elevators get stuck often. The rooftop is closed half of the year for no reason. The "smart hole" never work. 3rd party technicians have told me that they don't cole cause the management company did not pay them for previous visits. The water is not hot enough and the pressure is meh at best. The management office staff is VERY rude!
Advice to owner:
Replace the office staff to people who wants to give service.
