The James is a great space to live.

I think the building overall looks great. It’s warm and inviting, and of good standard. The management team is friendly and helpful and they arrange a number of events each month to create a sociable atmosphere. Great sense of community, and everyone is very welcoming.

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

It’s very central, which is great. The downside is a lot of city noise, but that is to be expected when living so central.

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

I haven’t had any problems or issues yet so I have no comment.

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

I can’t think of anything at the moment to add to this.

Light Luxury

nice and comfy design let me feel peaceful, always smells god because of the aromatherapy. Every floor has a laundry, so no need to queue. Even has a small gym in 2nd floor, of course there's a lounge room and a beautiful balcony. A vintage postbox( or mailbox?) in the ground floor, nice!

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

Settle in the city downtown, close to the M&S and bus station. Might be a little bit noisy in night on weekends. There's a car park in the next street (I don have car tho).

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

he will guide you how to deal with them or just solve them if something wrong about facilities.

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

electric bill is not included in rent fee, and it increased.

Amazing flat ❤️

This is the nicest building I’ve ever lived in. It’s beautifully decorated, the room is spacious (and I live in the Cosy studio. The bigger ones must be even better), the bed is insanely comfortable, and the storage space/wardrobe space is incredible! The coworking space and terrace are lovely and the gym is small but perfect - it has just enough to do a good workout The property and building management is amazing! I really love the staff and they’ve made me feel like a member of the community and that I’m a part of a friend group. This is unlike anywhere else I’ve ever lived and it’s really a 10/10 experience

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

I’m new to Liverpool but think the location is prime - close to the docks (perfect for sunset strolls!) great access to local shopping and dining, close to the bars that you can walk, but not too close that you hear the noise I feel safe as a single woman

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

I haven’t had any issues, but the building management is great so I’m sure they’d handle it brilliantly

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

You need special pots/pans that work on an induction stove. I didn’t know that was a thing - but check that your cookware is induction friendly so you can use the kitchen

Very central and easy access to shops, restaurants, etc

The James met all of my needs coming back to the UK after a year abroad. The facilities and management (property & building) are very helpful and address all questions in a timely manner. I’d definitely recommend to anyone who needs somewhere that is move-in ready.

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

Very central and easy access to shops, restaurants, etc. It’s a busy street so there is noise, but that is not a deterrent. Weekends can be a bit noisy, but this usually stops around 23:00.

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

The few issues I have had have always been dealt with in a very timely manner.

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

The only thing I didn’t know was that I’d need my own pots/pans. But, this was easily rectified as the shops are so close.

I love it here, an amazing place to live!

I love it here! The rooms are decorated brilliantly, very homely. The building management is the best, Ellie is brilliant manager and deserves a shoutout for how welcoming, and helpful she always is. Honestly, the management and maintenance team are all great. If you’re like me and move to a new city their friendly and going the extra mile approach really helps you settle in. Couldn’t speak high enough for the team here.

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

I have no bad aspects to report, this location is perfect. Bars, restaurants and open spaces are all a 2/3 minute walk from the building. It’s a lively city so there’s definitely noise from the streets but if you shut your window you can’t hear anything, never had a problem with the area. If you want a coffee there’s plenty of choice within 2/3 minutes, if you want open space there’s the waterfront which is down the street or there’s the terrace park which is also about 2/3 minutes away.

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

Never had a problem to report and only heard good things from other tenants.

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

That I didn’t need to be so nervous, the entire team here are so welcoming and friendly. Communal area is also really nice and a great place to unwind! There’s free coffee which I only realised recently… oops!
