Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The location of the octagon gives excellent access to transport links, bars, reatraunts and shops within less than a 5 minute walk. I am unaware of any antisocial behaviour within or around the octagon as all residents appear to be reapectful. Sometimes there is traffic noise from police sirens paticularly at night, however this is expected from a big city.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
During my first few days of moving in, I struggled to set up the wifi and in addition have locked myself out of my apartment a few times and staff have immedietly helped me and continued to show kindness. Since moving in, everyone has made me feel welcome, asking if I need any help with anything and are always there to chat to. Anytime I have any questions, staff are there to talk it through with me and help as soon as possible.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Nothing! Everything has been very positive and I am thoroughly enjoying the events and social aspects the octagon offers! I hope to attend more in the future.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
There are plenty of shops and places to eat nearby, and getting around is quite easy with the transport links. The area is generally convenient and has some nice open spaces too. The only issue is that parking can be difficult sometimes.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The management team was helpful whenever I needed anything. Problems were dealt with quickly and Paul was always friendly and helpful.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I didn’t expect the area and building to be this convenient and comfortable. Everything is nearby and the building is clean and well looked after.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Been a month since I have moved into the Octagon and it’s been amazing so far! No complaints at all from an area standpoint as it’s in the city center, close to work / shopping / restaurants and public transport so everything is accessible and convenient. Perfect for a young professional if work is located in city center.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes, they have. On-site team is very quick / responsive to help with literally anything so very satisfied. More importantly, they are very approachable & friendly.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Nothing really. Brilliant so far and have been loving life off late thanks to the Octagon and its way it’s currently being managed.
