Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent tenant reviews at 266 West 97th Street in Manhattan laud the superb staff, spacious apartments, and excellent location. However, concerns about a revolving door of tenants, noisy and inconsiderate neighbors, and lack of tenant stability have been raised. Pest issues, particularly in common areas, are also highlighted. Despite some positive aspects like responsive management and in-unit amenities, there are consistent complaints about water-related problems, pest control, and unannounced maintenance activities. Improvements in tenant retention strategies, pest control, and communication regarding maintenance are suggested to enhance the overall living experience.

Should be and do better
Former Tenant
Pros:
- Superb staff - Spacious apartments - Great location
Cons:
- Revolving door of tenants - Neighbors are loud and don’t pick up after themselves - Doesn’t provide tenant stability
Advice to owner:
Make it a place where people can build a community instead of being a revolving door. Try to keep tenants that aren’t problematic. It costs less to keep good tenants than get new ones.
Dirty common spaces like stairways and hallways, consistent pest problems in common spaces, occasional pest problems in the unit, from fruit flies to roaches.
