The area is lovely, there are so many lovely restaurants and cafes around. Transportation is also very good; you can get pretty much anywhere from the underground station. Also not loud considering it’s next to the stadium.

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

Everyone has been incredibly helpful and forthcoming. Especially Maria always goes above and beyond to help!

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

Maybe inform potential tenants that they have to sort out their own council tax, as email is not very clear about that.

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

Great shops nearby, easy access for groceries especially with new stores opening recently (tian tian market, bubble tea). Transport is great with wembley park station nearby. Can have issues getting in and out on event day. There is no free parking which is an issue when having guests over, and private parking in the flat is extremely expensive. However, I feel safe in the area and thats very important to me.

They respond in a timely manner, can make a complaint via app or speak to concierge.
