Apo at The Holloway, B1

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

One of the main drawbacks is parking. The building has a limited number of allocated spaces, and additional parking can be expensive on top of the property price. Street parking is also restricted at times, particularly in the evenings. On a positive note, complimentary internet is provided within the building, which is a valuable benefit for residents.

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

I usually contact the building management via email, and responses are generally prompt. Communication is clear and issues are typically acknowledged quickly, with follow-up provided where necessary.

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

I had not realised that all parking within the building is chargeable and limited. There are no included spaces, which can significantly increase overall costs for residents who require parking

We live right next to the mail box so restaurants and shops and right on your front door. We also have corner shops opposite the building which is easily accessible. New street station is about a 5/10 minute walk depending how fast you walk. Parking has now become available as the building expands

Living in this area offers several significant advantages. Residents enjoy excellent connectivity to the city centre, with convenient access that makes commuting straightforward. The train station is within walking distance, providing further ease of travel. Essential amenities are close at hand, including local grocery stores, nearby healthcare facilities, and a wide selection of quality restaurants, all of which contribute to a comfortable and convenient lifestyle. However, there is one area where improvement would be beneficial. The facility management team should place greater focus on maintaining the cleanliness of the bin and rubbish room as well as collection. Ensuring that this area is kept hygienic not only enhances the overall living environment but also reduces the potential risk of infection or contamination from unclean surfaces.

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

Really good, they should keep it up. Maybe a much larger reception area in their future development.
