We believe the best information about a residential development comes from the people living there. Owners and tenants have a lot of useful information to share with their prospective neighbours, not just on the property itself and its locality, but also on the developer and the building’s management.

Be cautious before booking this place. U know what? I have never touched the key of my flat, I paid around 4000 gdp for a booking, and 120 gdp for 2 month electricity of a falt without people living in. Uncle staff used all his tricks to take away 3 month deposit rent from me since i cant make it to UK due to COVID, while still charge me 2 month of electricity when i'm in another half planet. Great Stealer. So what they did? One month before my rent started, I kept emailing them for this issue, no response. 24 hour before I need to pay the full rent, they reply: " Opps Sorry It seems that COVID will not disappear so you still need to pay us all the money". Then I negotiated if we can delay the period for several months since it is impossible for me to travel to UK at that time, they rejected OFC. Is it illegal to take away more than 5 week of rent in advance? It is still weird that they told me if i broke the contract i would get back not even a piece of coin, when they still send me a 1/10 deposit back contract to sign. Now I realized if I didnt sign it they can not get the deposit into their pocket either, and I can totally raise a dispute. So i give up. I just want to forget this. So they charge me 2 month of electricity fee of an empty flat, for 120 gdp? nobody lived in and 120 gdp? Because of the 1/10 deposit contract I signed? They confirmed that the staff read the meters, and the house was still empty till now. So I want them to recheck the meter to see how much an empy house would cost per month. They reject this by saying “ we are not in a contract anymore, So we cant do this for you, Sorry". Take my money, Drink my Blood, feed your kids.

Management are really nice. Always prompt to fix issues. Nice building and security is a priority. The staff are always keen to help. Never had an issue with parcel deliveries as the staff keep them secure. Nice location as close to town and shops.

The building is a modern fully furnished building which has a handful of "communal spaces" such as a study/work room, a gym, an art studio and a yoga studio. The building is kept relatively clean. The building staff are nice and maintenance are very considerate and will try their best to help.

Overall, this is a good place to stay, you can benefit from an excellent location and facilities like the gym. Unfortunately my views from my apartment are not great because I am on the side and can see into another apartment.
