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

I’ve had a really positive experience living at The Quarters. The location is very convenient, and the studio is extremely well designed. My room is only around 22 square metres, but the layout makes very good use of the space and it feels comfortable rather than cramped. I particularly like the large study table, which is great for working from home, and the fact that the apartment comes fully furnished. The furniture, kitchen and bathroom all feel thoughtfully designed and practical. Overall, I’d give the design and facilities 5 out of 5. The only downside for me is that the building is quite close to the road, so there can be some traffic noise at times. Apart from that, I’m very happy with the apartment and think the space has been designed exceptionally well.

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

The building management has been very responsive and friendly. I haven’t had any major issues so far, but whenever I’ve had a question or needed help, they have responded quickly and been helpful.

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

I wish I had known a little more about the room size before moving in. The studio is very well designed and makes good use of the space, but I would have preferred it to be slightly larger. That said, for a studio, it works very well.

Not to be biased by other people's opinions of the area. People tend to have a somewhat negative perception of Croydon but it looks very nice so far!

There was an issue that I encountered with my flat but the management team was able to re-accommodate me within the same building whilst they fixed the problem
