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

Fabulous area, local to the city centre only a 10 minute walk. Great access routes to the motorway. Traffic isn't bad getting in and out of Leeds. If I'm being honest, there isn't much bad about living here you either love or hate the city Centre.

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

FABULOUS, we have had various issues but the team have been great.

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

To be honest, they gave us a really good viewing. Nothing was too much. I think the biggest thing was understanding suppliers and also cost of gas electric etc. But that was a minor thing.

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

The area is very close to local shops. Most of the shops that we need are just a mile away. Area is in a quite pocket of Bradford

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

No issues raised so far but have been provided the reassurance of quick response of any issues arise

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

The parking space is the small bit, given it’s a semi detached and the mere are three parking spaces which might make it a bit tricky but all good with parking on the road

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

Great location - two really nice coffee shops on site and nearby to really nice local pubs / restaurants. Very close to the train station (less than a five minute walk) and 10 minutes into the city centre.

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

As mentioned above, issues are dealt with very promptly. I reported an issue with my washing machine to Jac at reception and within one day it had been resolved.

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

How friendly the community is - everyone is very friendly around mustard wharf. The staff, especially Jac are always up for a nice chat!

Manager response

Hello, Rebecca, Thank you so much for the lovely review! We're so pleased to hear that any issues have been resolved quickly and that you're enjoying everything Mustard Wharf has to offer. We'll make sure to pass your kind words on to Jac. Kind regards Michael
