We believe the best information about a residential development comes from the people living there. Owners and tenants have a lot of useful information to share with their prospective neighbours, not just on the property itself and its locality, but also on the developer and the building’s management.

Brand new building with modern appliances and amenities. Well maintained and kept quite clean. Concierge service is usually on top of things - only problem is they do not accept any food deliveries even if only for a little while. Management has been fairly responsive so far.

The facilities of the apartment are limited. Private bar, dining room and cinema are not really useful. There is no swimming pool and with very limited parking. The quality of the apartment is bad. We had to move out temporary because the developer forgot to lay the water proofing for bathroom floor. And we were relocated to somewhere really awful. Tried to argue and at the end didn’t really provide like for like. Heating and cooling system constantly breakdown and leak. Apparently the developer didn’t lay the cooling pipe properly and cause the leak. The quality of the finishing in the apartment isn’t great as well. First impression looks expensive but eventually you will realise the quality is like China made. Some of the design of the apartment is quite stupid where it’s clear that the architect or designer didn’t think from the user aspect. Limited power sockets in the apartment. Worst thing, our toilet was overflow due the back flow of discharge from the other unit/outside. And we were blame it was our fault but engineer and plumber have agreed that the fault must be in the communal pipe. No apology or follow up from the building management, and we have to clean it up ourself. If you are a tenant here in the development, you will be guarantee to be treated like a second class citizen. Don’t be fooled by their appearance. Avoid!

The design of the building is very modern, though it would be useful to have two lifts in the building. The cinema room is a nice feature, although a gym instead might have been more useful for most - though I recognise that there are plenty quite near. The concierge is helpful and friendly, but the property management (for my flat its Savill's) has been a bit slow. So long as they fix the issues they say they are going to, then I would have given more stars.

The design is simple and classy. Minimalist style which is what I prefer. There is a cinema and lounge for the facilities at barts square; however I would prefer a gym or swimming pool. The building management is quite decent, however it doesn’t feel like they can help with personal requests which is the down side of it.

Fantastic location. If you living in the centre of the city, it is the perfect spot. Nice and clean, hidden from the main roads and busy high streets noise. High quality facilities available for the residents. Cinema and a Dining Room provide that much needed options to change your environment.
