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

Everything you need is walking distance. However if car parking is limited. Being so central you can hear outside traffic with the windows shut.

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

We had issues with the window and they sorted someone to come out that week to have a look.

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

They host many monthly events which is great for meeting friends.

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

The good aspects are that we are located right in the city centre so shops and events are easy to get to, public transport is also close by so travelling and shopping is easy and convenient. I wouldn’t say there are many bad aspects, just maybe that living in the city comes with a lot of noise but we get used to that after a short while anyways.

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

I’ve not really had any issues to raise, but I trust that if I did, Charlotte would handle them quickly and efficiently, she was so organised and friendly during the moving in process I have no doubt she’d help with anything I had to raise.

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

To be honest, everything was pretty much covered before we moved in, i felt very informed and comfortable that i was making the right choice by moving in here.
