The development has a modern design and makes a good first impression, but some elements feel a bit style-over-substance. While the communal areas look sleek, they aren’t always maintained to the standard you’d expect. Facilities such as the gym and shared outdoor spaces are useful, though they can become crowded and equipment isn’t always in full working order.

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

They have responded but very poorly. We recently needed repairs due to a leak and the response was poor when the work was finally completed after months of an unlivable situation, the workmen left the house filled with rubbish for us to get rid of.
