Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Gramercy Tower is a great place to live with fantastic views over the city and the best roof terrace I’ve seen. We’re within 5 to 10 minute walk of bars, restaurants and shops of Cardiff city centre and across the road from Cardiff train station. No regrets for moving here.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
I raised an issue when I first moved bed in and they responded immediately. Offering support throughout.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The well thought out lay out of the apartments means it’s a quiet space. I hardly ever hear my neighbours

Yes, when I had some issues with the door frame or something in the bathroom they got everything fixed for me in no time.

Nothing really comes comes to mind as everything was on par with my expectations about wood street house

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The building is located very close to the city centre so it's very easy to get to anything you need. Lots of shops, restaurants, etc around, with access to city transport within a short walking distance. Parking availability can be limited however.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
I haven't had many problems living here, but the staff are always helpful answering any questions I have.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I had known a little more about the parking availability, but otherwise everything was explained to me.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Good- so close to city centre and local transport links. No noise outside despite being central despite some trains but very easy to get used to. Local shops downstairs and close to everything.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Quickly and efficiently. Always respond within a day.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Great social events organised. Gym can get quite busy

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
I have been here 1 month and I absolutely love it! The whole of Cardiff town is on the doorstep. And so is beautiful Bute Park! Transport is right on the doorstep, if needed, including the train station, to go out & about in or out of Cardiff or down the wonderful bay. Traffic noise is expected a little being in the centre of it all. I'm up high so it's not an issue. There is parking but I don't need it. Large bins are very clean and organised and indoors, which i love.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
I had a couple of teething issues that were sorted immediately and with a smile!
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The only concern i had when moving in was what was the noise like. I did try to get a viewing on a Friday after 6pm to check but this couldn't be done. Luckily I'm up high so the noise isn't a problem. It's faint background noise on the weekends. But I think that should be something potential renters should have the option to do.
