Elephant Central, SE1

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

To start with I love how clean and new the building is, with the very modern design and comfortable living space. I also love that I feel secure, while going home at night because I know around the are are a lot of securities. Management team is very effective to resolve the problem if we have any, and always happy to help. They are always also very clean while entering houses and doing their job. I don't really have a lot of bad aspects. The only one I can remember is that garbage room was very messy for a long period of time, but they tried to resolve it as much as they can. I know this issue also depends on tenants but yes, this was my biggest issue.

The local area is full of life, stores owners are really kind , they are always helpful with customers and sometimes I feel like living in a small town within the city.
