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

well-organized and efficient.I've thoroughly enjoyed my time at Moda Mercian. The facilities are top-notch, and the maintenance team is always responsive. The community feel is great, and the location is very convenient. However, the recent renovation has caused some disruptions to the communal areas.

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

Everything is clear. As a Moda Mercian resident, I've been quite happy with my stay. The amenities are great, especially the on-call maintenance service. However, the ongoing renovation has been disruptive, impacting the overall aesthetics, particularly the lobby. I hope these disruptions can be minimized soon to restore the previous charm of the place.

Moving from Vita Student to Moda has been a truly transformative experience. While the price point is similar, the difference in the living space is night and day. The sheer size of the apartment in Moda is a welcome change.

We have some problem now, the communication in the beginning, but finally they reserve the problem effectively.

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

Great location, with groceries, restaurants, and a cinema nearby. Close to the city centre and well connected by road.

This is definitely the most convenient apartment I've ever lived in! Right downstairs, there are two large supermarkets, Tesco and Sainsbury's, one on the left and one on the right. Sometimes there are so many choices, it's a real "first-world problem"! For someone like me who doesn't drive, it couldn't be more convenient – the bus stop is right outside the main entrance, with a whopping six different bus routes and a light rail station. Plus, the street below is lined with all sorts of restaurants and cafes, so whether I want to grab a bite or just relax with a coffee, everything is right there. Living here is just so hassle-free!

Since moving in, I've consistently been impressed by the warmth and helpfulness of the management team. Charlotte is incredibly responsive to emails and always takes the time to resolve any issues thoroughly and patiently. I also remember one instance where Molly kindly reminded me that I'd forgotten to close my door properly. It's clear that everyone who works here is dedicated and takes their responsibilities seriously.

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

One thing I wish I had known before applying is that, because my specific apartment wasn't vacant at the time, I wasn't able to view it beforehand. I didn't even know what the view from my windows would be like. It would have been great to have that information before making the decision.

Very close to shops and easy access to transport. Just a bit noisy but to be fair, once you close your window it really helps.

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

Responses are very timely and helpful. So far any questions or issues have been handled appropriately.

Very easy to access transport. Didn’t think it was this easy
