Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 245 East 63 Street emphasize spacious apartments, excellent doormen, and a prime Manhattan location with easy subway access. Tenants generally find the building clean and secure, appreciating amenities like laundry, gym, and rooftop (though rooftop access is limited or closed at times). However, maintenance and management responsiveness vary, with several reports of slow repairs, outdated interiors, and plumbing issues. Noise levels can be high due to thin walls and street proximity. Pest control is mostly effective but occasional roach sightings reported. Rent increases are a concern alongside building aging and deferred renovations, notably in common areas and HVAC systems.

Cons

AC would turn on late in the season, hallways are outdated, big building so there is often a wait for packages, recently the rent increases have been unreasonable
