Merlin Wharf, LE3

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

The good: The area and views from some flats are extraordinary. Very good location: in the city centre, but far from traffic. Very handy reception that handles your packets. Night concierge. Timely repairs. Downsides: Certain rooms can get very hot during summer. Heating can be very pricey specially for two-bedrooms. Some car alarms go off during the night and that can be a nuisance. Flat design could be upgraded. Not many common areas. Not the best insulation for sound and change in temperatures. If you live near a lift, you will hear it. For some this may be white noise, for others, it may get annoying. If you get noisy neighbours, you will hear them.

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

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

In some buildings you only have one lift. If the lift breaks, you can use the lifts of other buildings up to 8 floor and then walk the rest of the stairs in your building. The building uses falconry for pest control and has it own beehive and honey.
