A great place for dogs.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Canary Wharf amenities are very close and there is everything you might need. The Elizabeth Line is amazing, new and fast - takes me to work in like 7 minutes! The "metal" bridge over to Canary Wharf definitely needs an upgrade!

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

The maintenance has been great. We did have a package stolen from the package room. That service could really be improved. The room is a mess and I feel like I can't receive shipments because I'm worried it will be lost or stolen.

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

This exact area is so, so dirty with trash everywhere. Needs improvement. There are too many cars. Cars should not be allowed in courtyard of building it's dangerous. That should all be pedestrian only. Not enough green space next to building. Very disappointed by that. The metal bridge to Canary Wharf is awful. Bad experience.

Best place to live in Bethnal Green!

Dressage Court, E2

Nov 2024

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Great location with the Central line & Overground both a 5-minute walk away. Sainburys not too far away, although I get most of my groceries delivered with Amazon Fresh.

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

Promptly and friendly. Unlike many other landlords in London!

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

Be prepared to become friends with other tenants! Also, make sure you are okay with the noise of the train depending on the location of your flat. I've gotten used to it with the window closed.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

Wide variety of lovely restaurants and shops near by. Waitrose andM&S within walking distance is also handy and I give another 5 stars. Lovely to have transport links within walking distance is another lovely thing!

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

None raised yet. waste bin area must be more cleaner and tidy. I have no idea how frequently they empty those bins.

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

We have given almost all the information needed. We physically visited and viewed the place.

Modern and new community has good facilities and good management.

Nov 2024

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:

This modern community has good facilities and good management, which makes people feel comfortable and at ease. It is convenient and new and close to the underground station, Tesco and Sainsbury and plenty of open spaces.

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

The management (Beverly and Helga) is quite quick when helping with issues with the flat or the surrounding area. They made the whole process of settling in very easy for us.

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

- Modern, elegant and feel good apartment - Cupboards are bit high to reach for someone who is not so tall - Wardrobe is small, but the Storage room helps to bridge that gap
