Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

We are very lucky to have WestField on our doorstep which is very convenient and a great place to meet and socialise with friends. Transport links are very good buses 2 minutes from the building and the tube station a 10 minute walk making travel very easy. I watched the development go up as I drove past most days and very happy with the end result. The street is very busy no parking directly outside but there are parking bays further up the road and a monitored car park nearby. The bin collection area is very clean and organised. It would be useful and convenient to have a mini supermarket and maybe a coffee shop on the premises. I haven’t seen or heard of any anti social behaviour so far and I’m looking forward to being on the balcony in the summer!

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

Very responsive I had a problem with my en suite shower when I moved in and because of the Christmas holidays I had to wait to get it sorted But it was rectified straight after and I have not had any problems since and I am happy.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Minimal noise which of course you don’t know about until you actually move in - but no disturbance from any neighbours apart from some door slamming late at night.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

The Good • Prime Location: It is ideally situated just a short walk (roughly 5–10 minutes) from Wembley Stadium, the OVO Arena, and the London Designer Outlet, making it perfect for event-goers and shoppers. • Extensive Amenities: Residents frequently praise the high-quality communal spaces, including a well-equipped gym, a co-working area, a media room, and a rooftop terrace with impressive views. • Community & Staff: The management team is often described as friendly and professional, and the building hosts regular events that help foster a strong sense of community among residents. • Convenience: The proximity to Wembley Park Underground station (Jubilee and Metropolitan lines) provides excellent transport links into central London. The Bad • Compact Living Space: Many reviewers note that the individual studio apartments are quite small, which can be challenging for those with many belongings or for couples sharing the space. • Facility Reliability: Some guests have reported that certain communal facilities, such as the cinema room or sauna, can occasionally be out of order for maintenance. • Room Issues: Common complaints include inconsistent air conditioning, occasional noise from neighboring rooms or events, and a laundry room that can feel undersized for the number of residents. • Limited Parking: While underground parking is available, it comes at an extra cost and can be difficult for guests to navigate or find nearby on event days.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

To be honest not really. I have few requests a month ago (including fixing services and others). Has been communicating back and forth with front desk or the app. Got a bit frustrated now as nth is fixed and I don’t wanna email the top management either.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

The short stay room is very different than long term. Overall it’s good.

Manager response

Thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and well balanced review. I genuinely appreciate the level of detail you have provided. I am pleased to hear that you value the design of the shared spaces, the rooftop terrace, the co working areas, and the overall sense of community. It is great to know that the location, amenities, transport links, and team have had a positive impact on your experience. Your description of the public areas aligns closely with what we aim to create, a place that feels intentional, social, and comfortable. I am particularly sorry to read about your experience with unresolved requests and the frustration caused by a lack of progress. This is not the experience we want our members to have. Even when issues take time to resolve, communication and clear updates are essential, and it is disappointing that this has not been your experience. Your feedback here is important and has been noted so we can improve follow up and accountability. Thank you again for your honesty and for recommending us despite the challenges you have faced. Feedback like this is genuinely valuable and helps us focus on where improvements are most needed.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Wonderful apartment in a very convenient location. The surrounding facilities are excellent, and there are many supermarkets and shops nearby, which makes daily life very easy and comfortable. Everything I need is within walking distance. One of the biggest advantages is the transportation—the subway station is only a few minutes away, so commuting is extremely convenient. The neighborhood feels lively yet comfortable, and overall it is a great place to live. I would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone looking for convenience and a well-connected location.

How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:

The building management has been very responsive and professional. Whenever I raised an issue, they addressed it quickly and efficiently. The staff was always patient, responsible, and willing to help, which made the entire process smooth and reassuring. Overall, I am very satisfied with their support and service.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

I wish I had known earlier how convenient the location and surrounding facilities are. There are many supermarkets and shops nearby, and the subway station is just a few minutes away, which makes daily life and commuting much easier than expected.
