Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 253 West 72 Street praise its prime Manhattan location, spacious units, and attentive, friendly doormen and management. Tenants appreciate the building’s cleanliness, well-functioning elevators, strong heat in winter, and decent water pressure. The building offers a generally quiet environment with good neighbors, though some street noise is noticeable. Pest control is active, yet occasional issues with roaches and bedbugs have occurred. Amenities are limited and often require additional fees, and some find the rent increases steep given the apartment conditions. While many endorse management responsiveness, a few have experienced challenges with heating and delivery policies. Overall, it’s valued for convenience and staff support.

The doormen are wonderful, and management is very responsive. The apartment was clean and neighbors were generally friendly and quiet. No broker fee.

Have to pay for amenities like the gym. You can still hear street noise even on higher floors. Saw roaches a few times on the stairs and in the laundry room.
