Review Summary for 217 Hamilton Avenue
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent tenant reviews for 217 Hamilton Avenue in Staten Island highlight mixed experiences. While some appreciate the decent cleanliness and garbage management, others complain about nosy neighbors and management. Positive aspects include feeling safe due to security measures, prompt issue resolution, and a serene neighborhood. However, issues like thin walls causing noise disturbances and a lack of laundry facilities are mentioned. Severe concerns are raised about a persistent mice problem with alleged ineffective pest control. Recommendations include better responsiveness to critical issues, especially when kids are involved.

Pretty good experience
Former Tenant
Pros:
I lived here for a long time, the security made me feel safe (even if they are a little nosy at times) and when there was problem it was fixed right away. The walks in the neighborhood during the day are quiet and beautiful.
Cons:
There is no change machine or card system in the laundry room so you need to bring your own quarters. The walls are pretty thin and so it does get a little noisy.
