525 West 52nd pairs in-home laundry with an extensive set of shared spaces, including fitness and yoga rooms, outdoor decks and golf simulators. Residents often praise the front desk and maintenance team. The far-west location and sound between apartments are the main points to weigh against the amenity offering.
Friendly staff and responsive maintenance are recurring strengths. Residents are less consistent about sound insulation, and the distance to the subway is a common tradeoff.
Longer-term residents describe staff who know them, help with everyday requests and make the building feel welcoming.
Residents praise quick apartment repairs and the upkeep of the common areas.
Several residents describe hearing neighbors through the walls. Listen inside the apartment rather than judging sound only from the hallway.
Residents who like the apartment and staff still point out the longer walk from this far-west location to the subway.
