A guide to living in Borough of Brent

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.

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.

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.

How lovely it is to live there. I discovered so many wonderful facilities in the building 10/10

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

I like that it is close to the tube station and the designer outlet. We have a lot of shops nearby and restaurants too. I’d say we could have some more green spaces perhaps even around the building. Union park recently opened up which is nice but it’s not very well lit at night or early mornings which can it make it feel a bit unsafe.

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

They typically come the next day when it is a maintenance request and then update it on the app once resolved. However, when it comes to the actual building management, not maintenance, they are not the best with responding to issues. They could work on communicating better even just via email etc.

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

The buses are great and run pretty frequently. I tend to go to Brent Cross shopping centre often via bus and it is a fairly quick trip!

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

I really enjoy living around Wembley Park. It feels modern and lively, with plenty of places to eat, grab coffee, or just walk around. Transport is super convenient, so getting into central London is quick and easy, and there’s always something going on near the stadium and outlets. At the same time, there are nice open spaces to relax.

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

So far building management responses have been pretty promptly and effective
