Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The good aspect of living in Millrights place is that it is a newly built and well designed apartment. Has very good amenities, I’m using the gym and the dining hall most. I appreciate that there is not more space but having one more treadmil could be better specialy during high demand periods like cold season. Or if there could be an option on the app to book the treadmil as it cannot be shares with others at the same time. I had experience of the times I went to the gym and because both treadmils were in use, I came back home. The only bad aspect of living here is the fire alarm from the fire station which I find very disturbing specialy overnight! I wake up every single time they’re going out for the mission. Also no parking availability during weekend is a problem as our guests need to drive around and around to find a place to park their car, if they’re lucky. Also I wanted appreciate the very good reception staff we’ve got. All of them are very friendly, polite and happy to help all the time. I know Ryan for a bit longer than the other lovely ladies and I felt sad when I heard that he is moving to another building. He is a star and he has always been helpful with any request we’ve raised. I wanted to take this moment to thank him for his fabulous customer service.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes, once I lost my keys. They have been very helpful and provied me a new set of key in less than an hour which was very convenient although the cost was a lot!
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I had known this building is located next to the fire station which is the only cons of it.
