Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The main downside of the area is parking. The building itself has limited parking spaces, and the parking directly outside is quite expensive. However, there are several public car parks nearby, so there are still plenty of alternatives. Another minor drawback is that there isn’t a large supermarket within very close walking distance. Most of the nearby options are smaller Express or convenience stores, which tend to be slightly more expensive for everyday shopping. Overall, though, the location is very convenient and these have only been minor inconveniences.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
There is a dedicated app for residents, as well as WhatsApp and email contact with the reception team, which makes it very easy to get in touch and raise any issues. The team is responsive and communication has always been straightforward.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
There isn’t really anything significant that I wish I had known before moving in, as the experience has been very much as expected. One useful thing to know is that the rooftop garden may occasionally be closed and unavailable during periods of strong winds for safety reasons.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The area itself is really great, as it's near to my work so I can commute very quickly. There is a good amount of shops around in the area for convenience and grabbing quick, last minute groceries, as well as being a 5-10 minute walk into the city centre whilst also not being directly in the middle of the hustle and bustle. The windows are great at surpressing the noise from outside as well, so that really isn't an issue.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Really fast and efficiently each time - no problems at all.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I'd known about the noise from other flats. To be fair, I've only had trouble from one neighbour, the upstairs and other side neighbour cause no issues, but just try to be mindful of who might be living in the building and might be having 3am raves!
