Review Summary for 188 Humboldt Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
188 Humboldt Street is praised for its cleanliness, modern finishes, and responsive management. The building offers excellent amenities including a gym, co-working space, Amazon locker, and an organic supermarket on the ground floor, with convenient access to public transit. However, renters note challenges such as slow elevators, occasional noise from neighbors and parties, odor seepage through vents, and limited kitchen space in some units. Some mention steep rents and a predominantly young, transient tenant base which may affect community cohesion. Improvements suggested include enhanced noise control, better airflow, more washers/dryers, and increased building security to foster a more comfortable living environment.
