One thing I wish I had known before moving in is the availability of parking spaces and any restrictions or challenges associated with them, such as limited visitor parking or the need for parking permits.

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

The negative aspect of living in town is the overcrowding at times. And the expenses as well.

Please review your development:

The building has a very modern design. Very aesthetically appealing. They facilities are accommodating and it gives residents a fresh perspective in renting.
Overall the management is top notch. The bills are not inclusive and that is a shortcoming, I believe making bills inclusive with the rent would be a lot more appealing.
Also, some facilities are still paid for outside the rent. That doesn’t seem fair, I believe the landlord can make this inclusive (eg £20 for private dining and £200/monthly for parking)

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

-i wish I had known how to manage my electricity bill. I was given the impression that since the building had solar panels, the electricity bill will not be a major concern. I find that the bill is actually a concern, and more should be discussed with tenants and potential tenents before hand

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

They respond in a kind manner and help find solutions swiftly.

Platform Sheffield is a great place to live with some fantastic features available . The apartments are well maintained and laid out and the staff are friendly and helpful. It would be nice to easily book the private dining room for example, the resident app doesn’t provide a lot
