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

Excellent location, right on the boarder with Chinatown and only a-10 min walk to Bullring shopping center that really has everything as well as Birmingham New Street and Moor Street stations that connects across the country. Plenty of restaurants and shops a short walk away. The building is secure, offers parking options, parcels holds and maintenance on site. There is some residual noise from the night bars on weekends but very good noise isolation when windows are closed.

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

Very quickly and professionally. Had no issues is anything was needed.

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

If you are very sensitive to noise then try a flat on a higher level as there is residual noise from neighbouring bars but only on the weekend and only when flat windows are left open.

I wish I had known before moving in just how approachable and helpful the onsite team would be — it would have saved me a lot of unnecessary worries. If anything breaks, you can simply report it through the app and the maintenance team will arrange to fix it. Parcels are handled really well, and the team always responds promptly whenever you need help. I genuinely had a great experience living here, from the maintenance team to the management team, especially Mohammed and Paul. If any of my friends were moving to Birmingham, I would definitely recommend this place.

Popular J&H coffee downstairs is a great friendly and tasty place to stop or to work. But price is really premium.
