Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Great location as it’s an easy walking distance to town and uni, always seems to be busses going past however I’ve never got one so the transport is good, there’s a few car parks nearby which is helpful. The only noise I ever hear if if Sainsbury’s is getting a delivery and I leave my windows open
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
I’ve had a couple maintenance problems since I moved in but they’ve been fixed within two days of reporting them which is helpful.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Tips id suggest is use side gages as it can be a lot quicker to get to your flat than by going through the whole building. The bedrooms are a little small if you’re wanting to ‘decorate’ or have other things apart from the bed. However the wardrobes are big enough to fit drawers in the bottom for extra storage.

Living in this local area is really great. There are various shops with a wide range of goods, and the quality is good. Restaurants offer delicious food from different cuisines, and bars are nice places to relax. The open spaces are well - maintained, perfect for a walk.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The building management has been really great. When I had issues, they responded quickly. Also, I want to mention Jose Navas. He was so helpful when I first moved in, and the management team, with people like him, makes dealing with any problems a smooth process. Whenever there's a concern, they address it promptly and effectively, ensuring everything gets sorted out in a timely manner.

I wish I had known about the amazing community events that happen here regularly.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Merchant City is a lively, central part of Glasgow with loads of great restaurants, bars, and shops. It’s ideal for people who enjoy city life, with a creative vibe, regular festivals, and strong transport links. However, parking is expensive and limited. Night-time noise from bars and events is common, but green space at Glasgow Green is nearby . It’s a great spot for young professionals and those who love being in the middle of the action, but maybe not ideal for families or anyone looking for peace and quiet. Still, it’s one of Glasgow’s most vibrant areas.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Answered promptly and the issues were dealt with almost immediately.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
How hot the apartments were going to be in the summer. Aircon would have been a welcome addition to the apartment.

My time at Candleriggs has been absolutely wonderful from start to finish. I’ve had a very good experience living here — the safety and security have always been top notch, which gave me complete peace of mind. The amenities were excellent and made day-to-day living very comfortable, and the overall upkeep of the building was always impressive. The location is ideal, everything is close by and convenient, and the apartment itself felt like home from the very beginning. The staff have also been friendly, professional, and responsive whenever needed, which made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. I genuinely couldn’t ask for more, and I would happily recommend Candleriggs to anyone looking for a safe, well-managed, and welcoming place to live in Glasgow.

One thing I wish I had known before moving in is just how safe, quiet, and welcoming the community here would be. From a viewing, you can appreciate the design and facilities, but living here shows how well-managed, secure, and comfortable the development truly is. It has been a very pleasant surprise, and I would happily recommend it to any new neighbour.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The local area is absolutely packed with places to eat, get drinks, grab a coffee, hit the shops and there is a constant stream of events right on your doorstep to entertain. You couldn’t be closer to Argyle Street train station and Central/Queen Street are just a stones throw away. St Enoch subway station is only a five minute walk and there are countless buses that pass by the stop just outside reception. The downside is that car parking is limited although there is an abundance of bike secure bike spaces. Bin collection is generally very convenient however it could be perhaps collected more frequently. At times, particularly on the weekend, the streets can get lively and potentially rowdy however the double glazed window offers sufficient sound proofing.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The team on hand were exceptional in advising our every move and they supported us right up until we secured our tenancy agreement.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Perhaps more information on the set up of the bills via Ovo and Homebox would have been beneficial.
