Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
It's a nice area to live in, with shops, cafes and restaurants nearby. There are good transport options, so travelling around is not difficult. Everything I need is fairly close, and the area is generally well looked after. It makes day to day life quite easy.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Whenever I've had a problem, the team have been helpful and tried to sort it out. They are easy to speak to and make sure things don't get ignored. I've had a good experience with them so far.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I would tell new neighbours to get familiar with all the facilities when they first move in. It makes things easier, and there is always someone around if you need help or have any questions.
Manager response
Thank you Aisha, we really appreciate your time in leaving us such a lovely review. We are all so happy that you are enjoying your home at Makers Place :)
