Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Considering the price and location, I think it offers good value for money. There aren’t many restaurants or shops within the immediate area, but having the train and tram station directly opposite is a major advantage. It makes commuting and travelling to other areas very convenient. Overall, the transport links make up for the limited local amenities.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The building management team has been responsive whenever I’ve raised an issue. They acknowledge the problem and aim to resolve it around three working days. For example, when I noticed that I hadn’t received the inventory PDF, they took note of it and arranged to follow up.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I would recommend clarifying which utilities and services are included in the tenancy and which need to be arranged separately. It can save you quite a bit of time and confusion after moving in.
Manager response

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Train tickets very expensive, high level of antisocial behavior. The only local shop is Sainsbury . Other shops are in deep Croydon which is not a safe area especially at night.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
There are lots of issues in the building but when you report it they won’t deal with it and they will treat you as a nuisance.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
That this place is soo poorly managed and that there is such a high level of antisocial behavior.
