Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Everything is very close to each other and since I'm a student it also makes it easier for me to go to uni that is literally 3 mins away. I love that we have gym, pool table and a place to study. Also I love they plans events for the tenants.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Pretty good. Sometimes the email response can take time but good.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I was trying to get a place here but they didn't have any room available back then. But now I'm happy that I get to stay here.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Really great location; can be busy (and a bit noisy) at the weekends, but for me that just added to the buzz!
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Very quick response through the app, and always sorted things out. (Not much needed though!)
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Relatively high proportion of students. Sometimes residents wouldn't clean up spills in the lifts etc, which could be annoying.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Very convenient to reach train station and 10 mins by car to coach station. Lots of restaurants with different cuisines around. Co-op right below the building and tesco 2 mins away helps a lot. Recreational area is amazing when you have friends coming over.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
yes once I had issues with my induction, it was sorted out the same day. Amazing service.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
pet friendly, daily cleaning of building. The intercom might not work always but you can message the concierge and they can let your guests in .
