Good to live however anti social behaviour is a issue

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

This building has great transport links such as buses every 5-10 mins to Manchester City centre as well as this the nearby train station is a 10 minute walk . There is plenty shops nearby such as the retail park where has a Sainsbury’s , boots , home bargains. As for car parking we can’t comment due to not having a car at this present moment. The issues we’ve had in this property is a lot of anti social behaviour such as residents smoking cannabis , dealing drugs and well as loud music at 1am and the use of laughing gas we’ve also had a lot of noise from other buildings with residents such as barking dogs and party’s

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

Staff/management were very quick to act on the recent flood and did keep all residents informed throughout the only criticism I would have would be the duration in which it took to complete work on our balcony doors which was a known issue throughout the building

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

I wish I had known before we moved in that the WiFi in the building meant we are only limited to sky and don’t give us the flexibility of changing providers like in other buildings
