Great building

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

Transport is very close and convenient, being on the Elizabeth line is great. There are lots of shops nearby. There is a lot of noise in my room due to building works in the development next door. The general area is not the best in terms of cleanliness and anti social behaviour but the building itself makes up for it.

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

Any issues I have raised have been resolved quickly and there is a useful portal for registering any issues

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

I wish I had known about the building works going on next door - these have been quite disruptive for me

Home Sweet (and Handy!) Hayes – Love Living Here!

Verified Resident

Momento Hayes, UB3

Mar 2026

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

Living at Momento Hayes Apartment in the pass 6-7months has been such a fun and easygoing experience! The area has a great vibe—everything you need is basically on your doorstep. There’s a solid mix of shops, handy supermarkets, and plenty of food options when you can’t be bothered to cook (which is often 😄). One of the best bits is how well connected it is. The Elizabeth Line is a total game changer—zoom into Central London in no time, which makes commuting or spontaneous city plans super easy. Buses are reliable too, so getting around is never a hassle. The street itself is pretty chilled, with a friendly, lived-in feel. It’s generally quiet at night, so you can actually relax, but still lively enough during the day to not feel boring. Parking can get a bit competitive at times, but nothing too dramatic. Bin collections are regular (no horror stories there!), and the area is kept tidy. Every now and then you’ll hear a bit of traffic, but honestly it just reminds you how well connected you are. Overall, it’s a great mix of convenience, comfort, and just enough buzz to keep things interesting—definitely a place you enjoy coming home to!

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

The maintenance team is knowledgeable, efficient, and always able to fix issues quickly, making living here hassle-free and stress-free.

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

One thing I wish I’d known before moving in is how much fun the building community can be their little get-togethers and parties are super great! Plus, the team so helpful makes everything else a breeze. Just bring a smile and you’ll fit right in!

Experience Modern Luxury at Momento Hayes

Chen (Tenant)

Verified Resident

Momento Hayes, UB3

Mar 2026

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

I have had a very positive experience living at Momento Hayes. The development offers a modern and stylish living environment with high-quality finishes that genuinely give a luxury feel. The apartments are well designed, bright, and comfortable, making everyday living enjoyable. The on-site amenities such as the gym, co-working areas, and social spaces are a major advantage, especially for professionals who prefer convenience within their building. One of the biggest highlights is the excellent transport connectivity. Being within walking distance of Hayes & Harlington station makes commuting into Central London very easy, particularly with the Elizabeth Line providing fast and reliable access. The surrounding area also has useful shops and supermarkets, which adds to the practicality of the location.

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

The building management team has been extremely supportive and proactive whenever any issues were raised. They respond quickly, communicate clearly, and ensure problems are resolved efficiently. They also organise resident events and social gatherings, which create a welcoming community atmosphere and make living here feel more enjoyable and connected

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

Of course, no place is perfect. The rent can feel a little “luxury-level” for the wallet, so your bank account might need a quick pep talk each month. The area also gets quite lively during peak hours — great if you enjoy a bit of city buzz, less ideal if you are practising your monk-like peace and quiet. And while there are some outdoor spots around, serious nature lovers may still find themselves planning weekend escapes to get their full dose of greenery

Manager response

Hi Chen, Thank you for your kind words! We are dedicated to providing top-notch management and maintenance services to ensure a stress-free living experience for our residents. Our commitment to security and cleanliness is a top priority for us. We appreciate your feedback! Thanks Ha Community Manager

Top-Notch Management & Amazing Amenities – A Pleasure to Live Here!

Stacey (Tenant)

Verified Resident

Momento Hayes, UB3

Mar 2026

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

Living in Momento Hayes has its pros and cons. The area benefits from excellent transport links, with Heathrow Airport nearby and easy access to the Lizzy Line, making commuting straightforward. Local bus services are frequent, though peak times can get crowded. Parking on the street can be limited, and traffic noise is noticeable, especially during early mornings and evenings. Bin collections are generally reliable, and the street is fairly safe with minimal anti-social behavior. Shops and restaurants are decent for day-to-day needs, with a few local cafes and takeaway options nearby. For a wider range of shops, a short drive or train ride takes you to larger commercial areas. Open spaces are limited, but small parks provide a place to relax or walk pets. Overall, it’s convenient for travel and practical daily living, though it can feel busy and slightly noisy due to proximity to Heathrow and local traffic.

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

The building management has always responded quickly and efficiently, resolving any issues fairly and keeping me informed throughout the process.

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

Highly recommend living here management is brilliant, amenities are top-notch, and the free coffee is a lifesaver! Just be ready for the occasional ‘Heathrow jet soundtrack’ and a parking game of skill. Totally worth it though!”

Manager response
