Momento Hayes, UB3

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

The local area surrounding my apartment is fantastic. There is a great mix of local convenience stores and restaurants so I have everything nearby me without having to travel too far. I never struggle to find something new in the area and transportation is also a breeze with easy access to buses and trains within walking distance making commuting around to work etc stress free. The street where the apartment is situated is peaceful with minimal traffic noise. I haven't encountered any problems with bin collection or anti-social behaviour and overall it is a safe and convenient area to live in.

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

I have not had any major issues but whenever I have had any questions or small concerns the team has been incredibly responsive and helpful addressing things quickly and never leaving me in the dark.

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

One thing I wish I'd known before moving in is how secure and quiet the building is. It is a big relief knowing that the communal areas are tightly secured and the overall atmosphere is peaceful. My advice to anyone new moving in would be to take full advantage of the amenities. The gym is great and the package lockers are super handy. Also getting to know the management team early is key and incredibly helpful to make entire experience seamless.

I was scared of renting for the first time, but it’s been an amazing experience living here at Momento! I am renting for the first time and the team here at Momento have spoilt me. It’s such a warm environment around here. The team is always available for us. Any issue I have is dealt with immediately and with utmost priority. Sajid in particular has been very helpful throughout my tenancy since the start. The whole team including Ha Mariana, Parm, Desmond and Sajid have been really understanding and very kind. Even the maintenance person Ritesh is proactive and is always there to help. There has never been a time I was left without a resolution for any issue.

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

Yes they have responded to all my queries immediately. Sajid is very quick in responding to my queries. The whole team is very much service oriented, and they have a customer-first approach. Very warm people in the team who genuinely care and love to help others. Exactly the kind of people I would love to be around in my life.

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

I just wish I would have moved here earlier. There is literally no complaints whatsoever.

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

The location of the development is less than 4.5 minutes from the closest Elizabeth line station, which makes it very convenient for unsociable hours of working.

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

The management team, including Mr Desmond Pinto, has been crucial on all aspects and levels of the service. He has gone above and beyond to ensure that residents/tenants feel truly at home at Momento Hayes.

The amenities that are offered, including the gym and big shared spaces.

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

Neighbours and residents seem friendly and welcoming, which makes settling into the area much easier. Good transport links and nearby amenities (shops, cafes, services) make day-to-day living convenient.

I haven’t faced any issues yet, but whenever I needed guidance finding my way around the building and its facilities, the management team was very helpful and proactive in assisting me

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

Nothing in particular comes to mind — the move-in process and living experience have both been smooth so far.

I have not been here long enough to have a full idea of what is available, but I have moved from Hampstead, and the coffee & wine bars, restaurants, delicatessens and so on that I am used to are not to be found in Hayes. The Grand Union canal is good for walking. The Elizabeth Line provides good access to the centre of London, and of course to Heathrow. There are plenty of local buses, and I particularly appreciate the Super Loop buses. Driving can be a pain, as the centre of Hayes seems to be permanently jammed. I don't use the street features mentioned, as all those facilities are provided by Momento, which, in spite of its proximity to Heathrow, is very quiet.

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

As stated previously, if there is a problem, Ha seems to be able to fix it. So I am very happy with the management team

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

I cannot think of anything important; the pizza and meeting day was good for meeting new people. Further events like that would be helpful to create a real community.
