Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
We have only just moved into the area but we're really enjoying it so far. We're very excited to go to the local market and have really enjoyed the experience of exploring the area. Hasan gave us some good recommendations for the local area when we were viewing the property, we're looking forward to exploring them!
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
We haven't had any issues so far as we've just moved in, we have been welcomed by Hasan though and feel very comfortable coming to him for help if we need it!
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Nothing yet! It's all been extremely smooth since arriving

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
I've been living here for three years now, and over that time so many different coffee shops, restaurants and places to go out have opened around me. I really love this location.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
I had issues, and it always took some time to fix, but in the end it always was resolved, which is great. Also I love the reception team, especially Galya, Mira, Tatyana and Steven. They are always very kind and helpful!
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The only thing I wish I had known before moving in is that deliveries can't be brought to your door. I really love ordering deliveries, so this is the one thing that bothers me here, but it’s ok.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Very convenient location. Everything close by. The only main issue is parking space. The closest is in Waitrose which is far for any of our guests. Its also inconvenient for residents to have to pay to park their car close to the premises.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Often very quickly. They are also always very helpful.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
No parking solutions. But very friendly and comfortable community.

The spec if I talk about in terms of being good is that it has a great location in zone two good services of commute, you get DLR . walk in less than 20 minutes to canary warf and from there can go to Central, or you can either take a bus to Stratford for the national rail. Tesco is 10 minutes walk you get vegetable supermarket, which is five minutes of walk. Plenty of amazing food places nearby and the best thing is you getVoi and ForestE cycles just outside the door of the apartment.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Hasan the go to man at the reception helps me a lot, anything you name it, he’s been always helpful to everyone in the building at any time . I remember instance where I forgot my keys and unlock myself out. It was late in the night and I went to reception. He helped me out with that. Also, the rest of the marriage team, Luciana and Naradt has been truly responsive and supportive during the tenancy agreement for the apartment
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I don’t think of anything that I should have learned before moving, and because everything seems perfect to me, and if anything that I would’ve even thought of knowing before would be any good Indian restaurants nearby, lol

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The building is top notch. Facilities etc are amazing. Parking is discouraged or under the buildings so can’t comment much on that but for small families and young people everything is there.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Everything we asked for got handled in a professional and timely manner.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The utility bills are a lil more than they should be.
