It’s great living in the city centre, everything is pretty much on your doorstep. There’s a train station around the corner, 10 min walk into town, takeaway shops round the corner. It’s quite quiet despite being next to the main road. However, the bells are the worst noise ever. They are so annoying. And the times the Church rings them is never a dedicated time it will be like 6:07pm for example and then ring again half an hour later. It’s noisy and annoying and they go on foreverrr. This is the only thing that lets the place down location wise! Please tell them to stop 🤣

Ryan in the Maintenance team is absolutely AMAZING!!! He appeared within 20 mins of logging an issue and fixed it in about 3 mins. He checked if I had any other problems whilst he was there still and helped me with another problem on the spot. Went above and beyond to help us, really polite and chatty guy - so lovely and just fantastic all around. He is a true asset to the Dandara team!

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

how little storage the place actually comes with…. the extra fridges and freezers shouldn’t have to be offered, really the design should’ve had full length fridge with freezer. don’t know why they didn’t? and the storage cupboard might as well not exist because you can’t fit anything else in there apart from a few plastic bags.

Granary Quay is in an excellent position. Close to the Centre and to the West End. The area provides everything necessary for everyday life, including two major shopping centres. For anything else, a short bus or metro ride (less than 20 mins in both cases) leads to all services someone might need. While being so much immersed in the city, the building is still quiet and protected from traffic and noise of the very close Dumbarton Rd. Sometimes, I have the impression of living outside the city and this is very relaxing.

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

The staff is great! Every time I had a problem, they responded quickly and effectively.

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

The availability of common areas adds a lot of value. The design of the apartments is great and it makes it possible to live comfortably in a small space.

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

Everything is within walking distance, including public transport (trams are 10-15 minutes, Salford central is 5 minutes and bus stops to most places are within 5 minutes walk) and town (NQ, barbers, food spots, Ancoats, Aldi, Lidl), Asda across the road for emergency snack runs. Not a lot of noise, residents are respectful, generally a happy place to live. Gym is good,

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

Always supportive, willing to listen and help. Helped me move flats within the development and heard my concerns.

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

None, all was made clear and communicated. Perhaps the annual rent increase on contracts would be a useful thing to consider (or consider doing away with).

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

A place you could call home, amazing community, top tier staff, the location is pretty good as well since you’re close to the center so pretty much everything is near by

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

I haven’t had any problems, they’d manage to solve whatever problems the building has before I even notice them such as minor maintenance work

Honestly everything is pretty well summarized by the landlord
