The 15th floor will be a better living experience! Because their furniture is light blue and grey! And there are some 2 bed rooms with big tubs!

Despite the occasional noise from the street late into the night, which is an expected aspect of city living, the overall living experience at Moda is exemplary.

Bad aspects: Noise comes from the street even until 2-3am, which may impact those who prefer a quieter living environment.

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

How street noise from the broad street travels up to the apartments. If I had known that, I would have maybe selected an apartment facing a different direction.

As one of my favourite staff members at The Mercian, Adelina, has truly exceeded my expectations. She is always lovely, kind, patient, enthusiastic and proactive whenever I have questions or need help. The professionalism and thoughtfulness she exhibits make me feel the warmth of a family member. She is more than just an excellent member of the Moda team; she plays a significant role in making me and many other residents feel part of the Mercian family. I am grateful for her outstanding work and timely help.

Moda feels like a great little oasis with its central enclosed courtyard and communal facilities mainly on the 7 floor away from the outside world ( including private dining, cinema room, sky lounge, library, residents gym and even a rooftop sports field. Integrated into the building are also another amazing gym, wellness company, great coffee shop/restaurant etc and more to come, making it almost self contained.

The Moda team are always quickly on hand to sort out any problems, make or facilitate repairs.

I honestly could not recommend the Moda team , offering and commitment more highly…

Moda is located in the vibrant heart of the city , sandwiched between Northern Quarter, Ancoats and Victoria station / Deansgate. The team at Moda constantly make sure the building and facilities are spotless and well maintained. Loads of parking possibilities in its own garage and the local area. I was surprised when moving here how sound-proof the windows are and despite being in the centre,
Obviously, with its location, its a two minute walk, to shops, restaurants, bars, Printworks and Cinema, Arndale centre, bus, tram and train stations .

Moda has a lovely outside (and daily maintained) promenade, great views and is in one of the most vibrant and expanding parts of the city.

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

Despite the superb offering, stunning facilities, modern design etc, which place Moda at the very top of rental opportunities in Manchester… the thing that stands out is the Moda team..
Always here and been here unchanged throughout my 2 year tenancy… worth it weight in gold.

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

As said, the team responds very quickly, helpfully and effectively. Its a huge peace of mind to know you have their support 24/7. Your are not a tenant, rather a part of the family

Management

Another flaw would be shower. Water always ends up on the floor. Same with the kitchen faucet. Because the faucet is so high, it causes major slashing when washing anything and both you and the counter end up soaking wet.

The gym is great- could use a cable machine to complete it but overall I think it’s one of the best resident building gyms I’ve seen.
The amenities are good but management suddenly deciding everything will be charged on use is not right- especially considering all the advertisements online, the ones who give tours, all said they were included. And for the price we pay, I expect them to be. I thought that’s what we were paying for. Exception would be if you were holding a private event.

In terms of staff, they are the best part about living here. All the concierge staff are so friendly and go out their way to help you. This also goes for the maintenance team. Any issue, they are there almost immediately to resolve it and take the time to explain what caused the issue and how they’re fixing it (I love knowing that stuff!)

Quick and easy access to shops, public transit and variety of restaurants. Downfall is the noise from Broad Street

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

How sound from the terrace travels up to the apartments. If I had known that, I would have maybe selected an apartment facing a different direction.

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

Yes, every single one with record speed. They’ve even gone above and beyond to help me with additional things.
