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

Portable grocery shops are missing when I notice there are shops for renting at the ground floor. Facilities are very good when I move it, yet management is quite disappointing as some tenants are not behaving well to keep all facilities in good condition.

Quick response with complaints received like tenants violating rules.

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

Nothing much. We had viewed all the aminities before hand and were pretty satisfied with it mainly the location.

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

There is a wide range of local shops bars and restaurants as it is only a short walk to the city centre. However this means that there isn’t any open spaces near by. The transport links are amazing. It is a ten minute walk to the train station and there are many bus stops and routes only 2 minutes away. The main problem is parking availability. There is nowhere for guests to park and I know parking for residents is limited and subject to availability. Also, living near a major road and roundabout means there is lots of traffic noise and living near the fire station mean lots of sirens.

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

Building management have responded quickly and any issues have been fixed within a day.

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

I wish I had known how noisy the area is and that parking is not guaranteed for residents or guests.
