    Review Summary for Olympia House
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    The building at 825 2 Avenue in Manhattan receives strong praise for its attentive, friendly doormen and responsive management, contributing to a safe and clean living environment. Tenants appreciate the convenient Midtown location, accessible transit, ample laundry facilities, and well-kept common areas. Some concerns include slow, frequently broken elevators, noise from street traffic, occasional pest issues, and outdated appliances or HVAC in certain units. Rent collection via checks is considered inconvenient by some. While the gym and amenities are valued, they are sometimes seen as small or overrated. Overall, the building is recommended for its management and location but could benefit from infrastructure updates and improved pest and noise control.
