Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Millet Place is a calm, well-kept part of E16 with everyday shops, cafés and green spaces within easy walking distance. Transport links are convenient for getting into central London, and the street feels quiet and safe, with no real problems with noise or anti-social behaviour.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Any issue I've raised has been dealt with quickly and politely. Fatou's assistance has been superior, with clear updates and follow-through every time.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
How good the on-site team is. Fatou's help made settling in far easier than I expected.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Its a small community and we’ve been around to see it grow- it’s a very family oriented area and there’s a local breakfast/ coffee shop and Starbucks as well as a sainsbury, and another grocery store, the apartment is also right opposite the station and is very safe. The Thames barrier park is also amazing and it’s a private park so no trespassers.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
I’ve lived here for 3 years and they’ve always been very responsive and try to help instantly with any issues
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The area is very nice and right outside pontoon dock station however due to the DLR extension the station was often shut on weekends - there is a direct bus that takes you to Canning Town station but it was a bit inconvenient sometimes but it’s become much better in this year

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Great shops and amenities. Place is modern and clean. The staff is very active and helpful. Easy to reach
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yeah they always do, it’s often easier to go through them than using the app
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The gym is not as good as I thought but it’s good for cardio

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
I would have preferred if we had extra shops like Morrisons, Coop, M&S, Tesco, Lidl and Aldi in this area to give us a wider range of options. The DLR being the only option makes commute to certain areas unnecessarily long but not sure how this could change tbh as it’s more of a TFL issue
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The front desk has been really helpful whenever we raise issues directly with them. They handle issues with the utmost professionalism. However, getting repairs and maintenance work can take soo long when reported on the app.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Honestly I think I knew everything I needed to know before moving in.
Manager response
Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We're pleased to hear that you've had a positive experience with our front desk team and that they have been able to assist you professionally whenever you've raised concerns. We appreciate your suggestions regarding additional amenities, including enhanced gym equipment and wellness facilities. Feedback like yours helps us understand what residents value most, and we'll ensure your comments are shared with the relevant teams for consideration as we continue to review opportunities to improve our offering. We also understand the desire for a wider range of local shopping options and transport connections. While these are largely outside of our control, it's helpful to hear how the local area impacts residents' day-to-day experience. We're sorry to hear that repairs and maintenance requests submitted through the resident app have taken longer than expected. We know how important timely communication and resolution are, and we're continuing to work with our teams and contractors to improve response times and the overall repair experience. Thank you again for your feedback and for choosing to make your home with us. Your comments help us identify where we're performing well and where we can do better.
