Soho Yard, S3

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

Very close to Kelham Island for bars, restaurants, coffee. Short walk into the city centre. Always parking availability. Bins never smell due to good air conditioning. No anti-social behaviour since I moved in 15th September.

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

I haven’t specifically raised anything myself. So unable to comment directly on this.

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

Additional costs: £40 for hot water only (through homebox and this is non negotiable). £100 per month for parking permit but not the one in a secure garage.

Absolutely love it. High security. Amazing staff. Maintenance is always on site and the guy is so good. He always comes whenever we ask for him, super nice and the job is always properly done.

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

Beautifully! Super fast and very professional alongside their beautiful treatment and kindness

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

Exceeded all my expectations! Would definitely recommend.

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

It’s a very convenient location, everything is walkable in terms of city centre and great transport links if you want to go beyond.

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

Very quickly. We haven’t had any issues but wanted some things changing around and they were very quick and efficient. The maintenance man, Terry, is genuinely the loveliest person and is very good at his job, and ensures everything is done to a high standard and as efficiently as possible. We wanted some things hanging etc and he made sure they were done very well, not just a quick job to get over and done, he treated it like he was doing his own home and took pride in his work. He was also so lovely to our cat.

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

That the hot water is charged separately to the normal water bill but other than that they were transparent about everything. There is also a trolley at reception that is very useful for bringing things up or down!

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

Local area is good. Bars and restaurants not too far. Shops are abit scarce as only found the local Tesco so not really much choice.

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

Terry has done some work in our apartment and hes done a banging job. Super nice to talk to, didnt make it feel awkward to be around and he seemed to genuinely care about his work which is rare to find these days.

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

Nothing comes to mind really as some issues could no way be expected.

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

The shops restaurants and bars in the local area are plenty and diverse enough that you will find what you need. The transport links are great as there are plenty of busses that pass through and it’s a short walk to the train station. The traffic noise isn’t too bad but once the windows are shut you can barely hear anything it’s lovely.

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

They were prompt and were able to solve our issues with nothing bad to say.

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

The amount of flies in the area, we love having the windows and the balcony open but in the day there are a lot of flies that like to come in
