Eda, M50

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

The area is literally the perfect location to live in Manny. It's very balanced in the sense that it's quiet enough but it's also close to everything. Town is 20 minutes away by tram, and the coffee scene around here ain't bad either. Media City got everything you need from restaurants to great cafes. I love living around Salford Quays and in Eda

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

I wish I had known about EDA 6 months before I've moved in. Honestly the amount of progress I made in my life here was crazy that I wish I moved in earlier. You got everything here, you just need to use it!!

The location is excellent, with easy access to MediaCity and the city center, just a short drive away. There's a tram station right next to the building, which is convenient. Additionally, a Co-op store nearby makes it easy to grab quick meals. Just keep in mind that the parking is not located within the building.

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

My experience has been mixed. The operations team at reception responds quickly and is very helpful, answering all my questions in detail. However, the management team has been almost unresponsive since I moved in. I clearly requested parking prior to my arrival even before I moved-in month ago, it still hasn’t been sorted yet a week later since I moved-in, and my inquiries have gone unanswered. I wish they would at least provide an update if there’s an issue with the parking, so I could arrange alternative parking for my car.

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

I wish I had known that the parking facility is not located within the building. It's situated at a nearby building, Clays, which requires a bit of walking. This information should have been included during the viewing, but I didn’t ask about it either, so I understand.

Living in Eda is the perfect access point to Media City, with a fantastic selection of restaurants and bars overlooking the quays.

Living in Salford Quays has been a great experience overall. The area has a good range of shops, cafés, and restaurants within walking distance, and MediaCity is just around the corner with even more options and a vibrant atmosphere. There are lovely open spaces and waterfront walks, perfect for relaxing or exercising. Transport links are excellent, with the tram just a short walk away and regular services into the city centre and beyond. However, parking can be a bit limited, so it’s worth planning ahead if you have a car. The street itself is generally quiet and well-kept, with reliable bin collections and no major issues with noise or anti-social behaviour. It feels safe and well-connected, making it a great place to live for both professionals and students.

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

The building management has been excellent in responding to any issues I’ve raised. They’re quick, professional, and genuinely care about residents’ comfort. Selina, in particular, has been incredibly helpful—always approachable and proactive in resolving things efficiently. It’s clear that the team takes pride in maintaining a high standard of service, which really adds to the overall living experience at Eda.

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

One thing I wish I had known before moving in is how quickly the apartments would fill up—being one of the first tenants, it was quiet at first, but it’s become much livelier now. Also, it would’ve been helpful to know more about the parking options in advance, as spaces are limited. That said, the team has been great at helping with any questions, and the overall experience has been really positive.

Really great vibrant area. In the heart of Salford Quays and not too far from Media City. Tram stop is outside Eda building. Lots of shops, restaurants and bars around. 10 mins to City Centre.

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

Maintenance is fantastic. Michael who carries out the maintenance is absolutely terrific and highly personable. Fast response times and excellent work. Mark the contact for the wifi was brilliant too. Overall. excellent so far.
