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

Hove Train station nearby can be quite loud, even at night.

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

Very good - it’s a shame the lounge area isn’t split by more soundproofing other than curtains but a minor point. The spotlights also make it a bit difficult to see the tv for films but these are minor points. A couple of mirrors on the public toilets would be handy.

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

Very good - they keep us informed of developments via newsletter

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

A lovely sense of community with the events they schedule

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

Located close to train station and Hove shops. Generally quiet and modern. Poor back house management lets down residents and front house team

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

Front office yes but zero follow through where it mattered

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

That the offers of free passes etc were largely nonsense

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

Great array of shops and restaurants near Hove Gardens and just a short walk from the sea! Quiet road

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

Professional and quick response! Everyone gets back to you right away, and they are so much more helpful than typical landlords.

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

The thing I notice the most living here is how quiet the rooms are. There are so many tenants here, yet when I go to sleep at night it's so so quiet. It's the perfect balance of having your own quiet sanctuary at home, but having the option of being more social with the rest of the community who live here.
