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

On first viewing the rooms will like any other standard room. When you move-in, you quickly realise how deceptively spacious the room is i.e. hidden storage space and plenty of drawers etc.

Just a couple of mins walk for National rail, co-op, Sainsbury & Amazon fresh. Management is very good & quick in addressing the queries.

Nothing such at this point to regret. May be a garden & a common work place would be an add-on which is missing here.

Convenient location close to transport links and connections into London terminals. I tend to lean towards living in quieter pockets of London, so being in the heart of Croydon has been a bit of an adjustment for me. Traffic noise is also an issue, but that is because I am overlooking the main road and the tram stop. I didn't look at my flat prior to moving in, so that was part of the risk I took. I'm enjoying the sunny side of the building over the winter, but if staying longer I will consider moving to the back of the building as I can imagine the sun won't be so enjoyable over the summer. Bins can be overflowing at times and more care could be taken by residents to ensure recycling is broken down, etc.

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

I had a couple of minor maintenance issues that needed to be resolved with the flat when I moved in, and they were dealt with quickly and easily the next day, which so much of the stress away from the process of getting things fixed.

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

Nothing - the listing was very thorough in explaining everything available and included in the rental. One thing I would love to see in in future though that I feel the bulding is missing is a shared/communal space for residents to connect in and possibly a gym.
