Close to the centre, nice place for walks or to sit outside while it’s warm and sunny beside the river. Bin chute is useful. I enjoy the resident gym.

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

One issue we had was dealt with quite quickly. However I did send a text message to their WhatsApp. While I sent two maintenance requests about repairs through the right channels, in the apartment nobody has gotten back to me for several months! Residents often leave the gym without putting the equipment back.

Not a lot of sunlight coming in from certain sides of the apartment

The amenities are fab - having a coffee shop in the building is second to none and there are some great gyms, dance studios etc nearby. It would be amazing if an independent store opened nearby. Traffic can be a bit loud but otherwise it's a lovely place to live.
