How good the experience would be!! Definitely looking to renew

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

Lots of grocery shops and clothing shops nearby. Lovely cafes and restaurants too. If you enjoy having a drink there’s many pubs and bars too. Transport links are great to get into central London. Parking is a nightmare though, you cannot apply for a permit to park on the street. The nearest parking lot (Morello car park) costs £217/month to park your car!!!!!! Which is extortionate. You will hear the train from your flat but you get used to the noise.

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

Yes they have responded to issue I have had but I often have to chase for responses.

I wish I knew which way the flat was facing (ie north facing or south facing) I also wish I knew how much the parking was going to be.
