The only issue we have had so far was with our washing machine which was resolved quickly. We were also allowed to use a different washing machine in an empty flat, while we waited.

It can be difficult to get help outside of working hours as the staff at reception will tell us to wait until the morning.

Wide range of shops and restaurants nearby with the Albert Dock and Liverpool One being a 2 and 5 minute walk respectively

If possible view a couple of flats in the different buildings as a view over the river is preferable to an inward facing view. Parking is £85 per month but its secure and there are plenty of spaces.
