Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Moved here to have easy access to public transport, it’s as good as it gets in Leeds. Most bus lines, train and coaches are within 15 minutes walk. You’re close to the busiest part of Leeds, yet get to enjoy a peaceful home. There is so much to do nearby that I rarely feel the need to go to other parts of the city. You can find local coffee shops, hobby stores, etc… and events to attend in house as well as close by. Sainsbury’s at the doorstep is very handy with larger supermarkets nearby when necessary. Anti-social behaviour is rare and quickly responded to thanks to day and night security on site and around the premises.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Good communication, and Nyasha is quick to handle management related queries, so there’s no need to push for manager input from my end. Katy is always happy to have a chat when I catch her, so I’m confident I could contact her directly if needed.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Furniture on the terrace is long overdue, although it’s not a dealbreaker.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Good access to public transport as near the train and bus station! Close to the centre of town so great to pop to the shops :)
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Quick response (most of the time within a few hours) or for less urgent issues within a day max.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
How quick it would take to get a parking space. How to sign up to events they host to make sure we get a space.
Manager response
Hello, Benjamin, Thank you so much for the lovely review! We're so glad you're enjoying the facilities and events. We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to Jac. Kind regards Michael

I had a problem with the dishwasher and the maintenance team got it fixed for me.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Overall living in Moda is good and convenient. Good side is that Sainsbury is downstairs and bus stop, town centre and playhouse is also nearby. Bad thing is that only Sainsbury is only an available option, if including few more would be better and if there are coffee shops and restaurants nearby would be much more nicer. The chair in the study room a lot of it are broken and it would be nice if there are another study room.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
It’s generally quick. Usually respond within a week but occasionally respond more than a week
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The furniture such as curtains are very good quality as it’s protected from the light. But the chairs in study room a lot of it are broken. The lift is out of use frequently
