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

There is a Sainsbury's and Tesco just downstairs, and the tube station is right next to the building. The Elizabeth Line is also within a ten-minute walk, which makes transport very convenient for commuting. However, the construction site nearby has bright lights at night, which can be quite disruptive and affect sleep quality.

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

The building management team is generally responsive and able to resolve most issues within a reasonable time. However, there are occasions when it takes a while to receive a reply.

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

I wish I had known about the noise from the nearby underground trains, which can be quite noticeable at night, especially if your windows face that side. Also, there’s ongoing road construction next door, and the bright lights from the site at night can be quite disturbing. If you’re sensitive to noise or light, it’s worth checking the flat’s orientation and nearby developments before moving in.

Good: location wise its perfect, loads of restaurants to choose from, loads of public transport options, not far from work, few bars around but seems mostly for students/student nights, noise pollution from the street is minimum but occasionally I can hear people one their way home from a night out if I leave my window open.

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

As of yet I haven't had to make any but the features on the app make it easier to request if I need + the 24hr desk security is a bonus!

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

There are always some issues with security door/lift/cleaning/water shortages and issues. In lot of the cases the resolution takes months to happen. There has been break in as well sometimes

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

They have responded in a delayed manner. It takes a lot of time to get to the resolution

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

If I would have known the lifts sometimes stops working or security doors are not repaired , I would have thought twice.

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

Transport links are unmatched. Parking availability on our street is difficult, and it can get loud at night due to being next to student accommodation/The Foundry bar. Otherwise the street is great, and we have unmatched access to a Sainsburys, Tesco, and takeaways. Traffic noise can also be a problem sometimes due to the main road leading from Wembley passing by the building. Good access to Pure Gym/newsagents within a 15 minute walk away.

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

Slow, not well communicated between themselves and decision makers. It took over 18 months or so to fix the West Block ceiling, the bin store has always been a mess for the few years i've been here, slow repairs of doors that wouldn't close properly. Management are nice and well intended, but in terms of getting things done, it could be a lot better. I also booked the lounge for New Years Eve after being told 4 months in advance that this was fine. I checked a few weeks before hand again and was told it was fine. On the day before, I was told it was cancelled without reason, despite having made plans for friends to travel from Cardiff.

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

There isn't a stable property management team (e.g., long term - itself always changing). Facilities that were described and offered when viewing the property would be taken away a few months later.
