The local area is convenient, it is accessible for work and entertainment purposes. There is a bar area and they hold events for the guests which I have really enjoyed and I am looking forward to more events in the future!
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
No issues raised, as I have had no problems. I have noticed they come in and check if everything is ok of time to time though!
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
No, not really. Just wished the restaurant stayed opened but they started to do events that have been entertaining.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Excellent location 4 mins walk to Watford Junction and 3 mins walk to Watford High St and shops and restaurants.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Should have known more about the developer and their service and quality history. Clarendon may just be a really bad apple amongst their portfolio of properties. Insist on completing the snagging before you complete your purchase.
What is the best feature of your home:
The views from the roof terrace are the best. Cinema room is fabulous. Location is second to none with main station and High street within 3-4 mins walk with a vast range of shops and restaurants. Central London is a quick 15-20 mins by train.

Very quick response, I had a problem with my stove, reported it at 8pm, it was sorted by noon the next day
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The surrounding area, I didn’t know it was so multi cultural and so much different options of foods/goods in the area which is great
