Excellent property with beautiful design and top-class amenities

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

Pros - Ample food options, grocery stores, supermarkets such as Asda and Lidl at walking distance. Close to Hayes station with good connectivity to Heathrow and Central London. Cons - Fly tipping and cleaning of the streets can be an issue at times, anti-social activities sometimes. Rough sleeping in the subway.

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

Prompt and always found a resolution whenever any issues were raised.

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

construction on the remaining part of the property can create some noise and dust, especially if your unit faces that side. Will need additional cleaning.

Manager response

Hi Ayush, Thank you so much for your detailed and thoughtful review! We’re delighted to hear that you’re enjoying the design, facilities, and resort-style feel of the community. It’s wonderful to know that the gym, pet spa, gaming room, and co-working space have made such a positive impact on your experience. We truly appreciate your kind words about our management team, especially Sajid. We’ll be sure to share your feedback with him as he always goes the extra mile to support our residents. We also value your honest insights about the local area and construction works. While we can’t control external factors such as street cleaning, fly-tipping, or local activity, we’ll continue working closely with the local council where possible. Regarding construction, we understand the temporary inconvenience and are doing our best to minimize disruption for our residents until all works are completed. Thank you again for your recommendation and for choosing to make your home with us in Hayes. We’re so pleased to have you as part of the community! Thanks Ha Community Manager

Easy access to Heathrow, m4, m25 and most of London with easy access to most of London via Elizabeth line. Canals are nice for walks in nature

Yes, they have provided answers to my questions quickly and facilitated large deliveries.

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

Ask4 wireless is a bit weird at first, but it's actually a very secure wifi solution.

Manager response

Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re delighted to hear that you’re enjoying the building, high-quality facilities, and design especially the gym, co-working spaces, and rentable furniture. We also truly appreciate your recognition of myself ( thank you) Mariana, and Sajid. The team works hard to ensure residents feel supported, and it’s great to know their attentiveness has made such a positive difference for you. It’s fantastic that the location and surrounding area, with excellent transport links and canal walks, have added to your living experience. Thank you as well for highlighting your experience with Ask4 wireless. We’re glad it’s proven to be a secure solution once settled in. We’re so pleased to have you as part of our community and look forward to continuing to provide the best service possible. Thanks Ha Community Manager

A Welcoming Community with Great Management

Catalin (Tenant)

Fizzy Hayes, UB3

Aug 2025

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

The local area around Fizzy Hayes is well-connected and practical for daily life. Shops like Lidl, Asda, and Sainsbury’s are nearby, along with coffee shops, takeaways, and a few good restaurants. Hayes & Harlington station (Elizabeth Line) is just a short walk away and makes commuting into central London or Heathrow quick and easy. The nearby parks like Minet Country Park are great for fresh air and walks. The street is mostly quiet, with no major issues around noise or anti-social behaviour. Parking can be a bit tricky at times, especially around the station. Bin collections are regular and reliable. Overall, the area is convenient, safe, and offers a good balance of urban access and green space.

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

The building management has always responded quickly and professionally. Inga, in particular, is very supportive and helpful.

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

I wish I had known how active and friendly the community would be, monthly events really help people connect. It’s more than just a place to live, and new neighbours should definitely get involved to make the most of it.

Manager response

Dear Catalin, Thank you for your lovely review! We are so pleased to hear you have enjoyed nearly four years at Fizzy Hayes and that the community, design, and location have made it a great place to live. We are especially glad to hear Inga’s support has stood out. She will be thrilled to know her efforts are appreciated. We also appreciate your feedback about the gym and understand how valuable that addition would be. Please note that the project for the new gym is currently under planning permission with the Building Safety Regulator (BSR), which has extended the timeline more than we anticipated. While we are unable to provide a specific completion date at this stage, we will continue to keep the community informed as progress is made. Thanks again for being part of the Fizzy Hayes community and for recommending us! Kind Regards, Leandro Lopes Community Manager
