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

Living in Leicester city centre has been great - everything is within walking distance, shops, restaurants and gyms are close by. Transport links are good. The area feels lively but safe, with plenty of things to do. It’s been really convenient for work and social life, and I’ve had no complaints.

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

Building management has been responsive and helpful. Most issues are sorted quickly, and communication is usually clear and professional.

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

How good the soundproofing is - it’s something you can’t really tell from a viewing. I’ve heard from friends in other blocks that their walls are paper thin, but here it’s been surprisingly quiet. Definitely something I appreciate!

Manager response

Hello Dev, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your lovely review. We love to hear your feedback! Hopefully as you mention the delivery driver issues are now few and far between! We love that you feel taken care of and comfortable in your home. If there's ever anything you need, please do not hesitate to come speak with us. Take care!
