A Guide to Living in Greater Manchester

In terms of public transport, it’s really well connected with Victoria a couple of minutes and Piccadilly only a 15 minute walk away.. Tne streets can be noisy – boy racers and the emergency services making most of the noise – but that‘s part and parcel of city life.

Angel Gardens is a great place to live. It‘s luxurious, but unstuffy. The building is well thought out and kept beautifully clean. The management and concierge have looked after us brilliantly … really going above and beyond at times. Big shout out to Andy for getting us the apartment we wanted and the ‚coolest concierge team in the world‘ for everything else. We shouldn’t have favourites, but James and Matthew have been stars .

It’s been home from home for us and we‘ll be sad to leave.

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

The only gripe would be the lack of privacy curtains/blinds – ie something (in addition to the black-out curtains) that lets the light in, but stops builders / residents over the road looking into our flat … and maybe takes the edge off the Summer sun (we had to sit in darkness if we wanted to stay cool).

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

Management have responded quickly, professionally/in a friendly manner to every request

Please review your development:

The management are very good and I cannot stress enough how my experience has been positive. The building is a modern design which I say to my friends is luxury, I really like the design and the facilities are extremely clean and well taken care of, I have been here for three months and I enjoy every part of living here.

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

I don’t have any things that I wish I would have known.

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

Yes they have helped me with every issue I have had, they were small issues and sorted quickly.

Please review your development:

Always very clean, however woeful property management. Not consistent in views/rules. Inflexible. Not professional. Slow to respond to the parcel room being ransacked and other thefts in the building. The building is not secure. Would not recommend the management of this development.

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

How poorly the development is managed. Parcel room or car park is not secure despite claims.

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

Very slow to respond. Non caring. Always out of the office.

Really great building with bespoke flats with character that fit well with the industrial history of Ancoats. Building management could be better – infrequent window cleaning (twice in a year and a half), roof terrace is still not finished after initial work started on it a year and a half ago, so you do have to watch your step up there – seen loose screws before! View from the roof terrace is one of the best from Manchester! Friendly staff working on the reception, always happy to receive parcels so safe delivery of parcels almost guaranteed!

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

Nothing really! Comes as you would see in a viewing, no hidden issues or concerns I’d warn them about!

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

Always prompt replies, but very delayed addressing of the issues – should be noted these are for amenities like roof terrace and window cleaning. Had no issues to report with the flat itself – good quality fit out!
