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

Very close to city centre and 5 minutes away from anything you’ll need. Wellington square provides a large selection of shops/bars/food spots. Bus stops right outside to get to where you need to go.

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

When we first moved in had an issue with kitchen sink leaking. Reported this to reception and had someone arrive to fix it within the hour. Very fast response.

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

The viewing showed us all we needed to know before we moved in. I feel as if we knew exactly what we were paying for.
