Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The location of this apartment is excellent. Within 3–5 minutes’ walk can find Tesco and Chinese supermarkets, and the DLR station is also very close which making transport very convenient. The sound insulation is much better compared to nearby apartments.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The building management has always been very responsive.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wasn’t aware that the rubbish needs to be taken down to the basement level, but it’s not really a big issue.
Manager response
Thank you for your glowing review! We pride ourselves on our friendly and supportive staff, and we're thrilled to hear they made your move-in experience smooth and reassuring. We appreciate your kind words and hope you continue to enjoy your living experience with us.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The local area is very convenient with plenty of supermarkets, shops, cafés, and restaurants within walking distance. Public transport links are strong, making commuting easy, and the area feels generally safe. There are also some nice open spaces nearby for walking or relaxing. The only downsides are that parking can be a little limited and, like most busy areas, there can be occasional traffic noise.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The building management has generally been responsive and helpful. When I reported maintenance issues, they were addressed within a reasonable period, and the team communicates updates clearly. The communal areas are kept tidy, and security is taken seriously, which adds to the overall sense of comfort and safety.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
After living here for four years, I don’t feel there was anything major I wish I had known beforehand — the apartment and facilities have met my expectations. Every thing has been great!
Manager response

The area is great with supermarkets nearby. Many great asian supermarkets nearby as well. Close to the Lizzie line.

I wish I knew it was going to be so loud during windy months.
What is the best feature of your home:
The cooling system when it works. But often it doesn't.

Manager response
Dear Tyler, Thank you for sharing your feedback and for your positive comments about the development, our staff and the community events. We are glad to hear that you have enjoyed your time here and that you feel the price and facilities represent fair value for the area. Your comments about the local area and the convenience of the location are much appreciated. We also note your points about the DLR noise, the size of the beds and the warmth of the rooms in summer. Our apartments are not fitted with air conditioning, but we do provide fans on request to help during warmer periods. It is encouraging to know that the team has responded to your maintenance requests and we will share your feedback with them. Thank you again for your balanced review and for your positive ratings. We are pleased to have you as part of our community and look forward to continuing to welcome you.
