A guide to living in Aberdeen

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

The area is very convenient for Dyce and the City with good transport links. It's quiet in the block I live in - the airport is close but I actually love the noise of the planes having been brought up near an air base! There are lovely walks by the trees and river very closeby - lots of greenery beauty and being surrounded by wonderful Nature is good for the soul.

Responded extremely well by all the staff, past and present - they've all have been polite, patient, friendly and very helpful to me at all times.

There's nothing I can add - my viewing went well and I had read about Dandara rentals before I arranged to view so I don't feel I needed any additional insight prior to my move.

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

The overall experience of the area has been positive. Having an M&S nearby was a great convenience, so it is disappointing to hear that it is closing down. Bin collections have generally been reliable, and parking availability is good. During my time living there, I did not encounter any anti-social behaviour, and ground traffic noise has been minimal. The area itself is green and well maintained, which is nice. There are no bars or restaurants in the area, but I'm not bothered with that.

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

I haven't encountered any problems since lived there. One of my windows needs cleaning but they're currently working on this.

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

I can't think of anything specific, everything is well as I expected it to be.

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

The local area is very accessible as The Point is directly in the middle of the city. Therefore it is so easy to get around and access all the shops and the pubs, such as Triple Kirks.

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

They have been extremely efficient and quick, Repairs have done the same day in my experience, Brad the maintenance tech is one of my favorite things about The Point.

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

I wish i had known you have to pay for laundry as I didn't know that.
