Cosmin and the Team have been amazing since day one. The Box Makers Yard is the nicest place to live in Bristol. It's perfectly centrally located, and so many nice things to do and see around.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
I requested a small change when I moved in, and they completed it the same day. They are just on it!
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Maybe bring a fan for the summer as it can get quite warm in the apartments.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Very central and close to transport. Sainsbury’s in building is very convenient. Bars and restaurants are nearby but still a walk (for most). The parking is tough to manage unless you pay for in building parking but if you don’t have a car it’s still good.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Our one maintenance issue was addressed as soon as it came up, and resolved above and beyond our expectations.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The apartments don’t have cooling which can be really tough in the height of summer.
Manager response

Nice design and pleasant living experience

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Living here is incredibly convenient, especially if you travel often, as the building is right next to the train station. The neighborhood is peaceful, quiet, and clean, making it a pleasant place to reside. Bin collection is convenient since there’s no need to walk far to dispose of trash, however, the bin collection tubes on the floor are often full and would benefit from being cleared more frequently.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The building management is very responsive and helpful. They answered all my questions when I moved in, and on-site staff promptly resolved a technical issue in my flat within minutes of my report.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I’d known the outdoor parking spaces aren’t for guests but are reserved for monthly parking. When my friend visited, we had to search for alternatives nearby.
Manager response
Thank you for your kind review! We’re delighted you’re enjoying the facilities, location, and support from our team, and we’ll take your feedback on the bins on board.
