Close to the tube (some noise but you get used to it). Area seems safe at night. Easy access to grocery stores.

So far so good. Have not yet had any trouble. On smaller things, they have always answered fast.

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

Rooms are quite small but you know this upfront. Everything is quite clean.

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

The Good • Prime Location: It is ideally situated just a short walk (roughly 5–10 minutes) from Wembley Stadium, the OVO Arena, and the London Designer Outlet, making it perfect for event-goers and shoppers. • Extensive Amenities: Residents frequently praise the high-quality communal spaces, including a well-equipped gym, a co-working area, a media room, and a rooftop terrace with impressive views. • Community & Staff: The management team is often described as friendly and professional, and the building hosts regular events that help foster a strong sense of community among residents. • Convenience: The proximity to Wembley Park Underground station (Jubilee and Metropolitan lines) provides excellent transport links into central London. The Bad • Compact Living Space: Many reviewers note that the individual studio apartments are quite small, which can be challenging for those with many belongings or for couples sharing the space. • Facility Reliability: Some guests have reported that certain communal facilities, such as the cinema room or sauna, can occasionally be out of order for maintenance. • Room Issues: Common complaints include inconsistent air conditioning, occasional noise from neighboring rooms or events, and a laundry room that can feel undersized for the number of residents. • Limited Parking: While underground parking is available, it comes at an extra cost and can be difficult for guests to navigate or find nearby on event days.

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

To be honest not really. I have few requests a month ago (including fixing services and others). Has been communicating back and forth with front desk or the app. Got a bit frustrated now as nth is fixed and I don’t wanna email the top management either.

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

The short stay room is very different than long term. Overall it’s good.

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

Wonderful apartment in a very convenient location. The surrounding facilities are excellent, and there are many supermarkets and shops nearby, which makes daily life very easy and comfortable. Everything I need is within walking distance. One of the biggest advantages is the transportation—the subway station is only a few minutes away, so commuting is extremely convenient. The neighborhood feels lively yet comfortable, and overall it is a great place to live. I would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone looking for convenience and a well-connected location.

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

The building management has been very responsive and professional. Whenever I raised an issue, they addressed it quickly and efficiently. The staff was always patient, responsible, and willing to help, which made the entire process smooth and reassuring. Overall, I am very satisfied with their support and service.

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

I wish I had known earlier how convenient the location and surrounding facilities are. There are many supermarkets and shops nearby, and the subway station is just a few minutes away, which makes daily life and commuting much easier than expected.
