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

First of all the location is superb , as central as you can get so we cannot complain at all, everything we need is a stone throw away . To add on to that the building is absolutely gorgeous, super premium look and feel. The team here are also solid super friendly and always on hand to help, Holly especially is an absolute asset to the team, a friendly face and a helpful soul. This extends out to the whole team for sure, they’re solid.

Absolutely super sharp to respond to any issues and the caretaker is solid,

Apr 2026

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

We live in a central location so literally everything is here and so close super super convenient . It’s great

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

For sure, they’re quite good at listening we even had a hand in shaping how the gym was and even upon completion they asked if they’re missing any equipment which we all fed back on.

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

To be honest I’d known about everything - so not really got much to add here. I’d definitely recommend going to the socials the building does, especially if you’re moving in by yourself or with a partner and are new to the city.
