The building management has always been helpful and responsive whenever I have raised an issue. Problems are usually dealt with efficiently, and the staff are friendly and easy to communicate with.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I had known how convenient the area would be before moving in. The transport links are very useful and there are plenty of everyday amenities nearby. Overall, there haven’t been any major surprises and I have enjoyed living here.

Great place to live in East London

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
There are no notable local shops, pubs, restaurants, or green spaces around. The area is very residential, but the building itself is an oasis in the midst of it all and has good connections to nearby hubs like Canary Wharf and Stratford.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Narad is always very responsive and helpful when issues are brought directly to his attention, and he consistently does his best to resolve problems quickly. However, the new maintenance request system can be somewhat clunky, and there have been instances where the building management side of the team have not properly logged requests with contractors. This can sometimes result in delays or the need to follow up multiple times. Once Narad is aware of an issue, he is very proactive in getting it resolved.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I had known how frequently the DLR can be affected by planned closures and engineering works, particularly on weekends. As the DLR is essentially the main rail connection serving the area, having it disrupted several weekends in a row can be quite frustrating and inconvenient.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
This is the only downside, there is not much going around in the area like coffee shops, grocery shops, etc. There is a nisa where the shopkeepers are very nice but that’s about it
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes, the building management have always listened to our concerns and been very understanding, working quickly to resolve things. We couldn’t be more satisfied with their service.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Nothing as such, if I had to think of one then it’d be that the flats get quite hot as bedrooms don’t have windows so it’s not ideal in the summer but conversely it keeps the flat quite warm in the winters

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Really great location, you've got the bus, tram, and train all right outside, as well as a big Morrisons and a range of different shops/restaurants/bars. Despite being just off the roundabout, the windows keep out all the traffic noise. There's the option for an underground parking space if you drive, and a bin storage which is kept clean and emptied regularly!
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
All maintenance requests have been responded to promptly and any issues solved
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Definitely go to as many events as possible, you'll meet some wonderful people and have a lot of fun!

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Very convenient, well designed living space and accommodations. Gym, cafe, workspace are incredibly useful to have nearby. They are very well maintained. The mail room system is also very nice and easy to use. It's close to the station, so travel is convenient. The gym feels slightly tight as there's some machines and equipment that could be better arranged but it isn't bad at all. The bin room is the only complaint, there's quite a large fly infestation. Otherwise, fantastic place to live.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
I have raised some issues in the beginning of the tenancy but didn't receive follow ups probably due to the new systems in place. But in the following months, most concerns were reliably addressed.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Nothing much. Maybe giving the dimensions of some of the furniture (couch, table, bed, etc.) are could help future tenants figure out what surrounding or complementary living room accessories to buy in advance. Like a couch cover, carpet, etc.
