Great experience for a first time tenant

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

This is a prime location for anyone who works in the city. There are plenty of shopping locations as well as restaurants and bars in the surrounding area. There are travel links near-by which makes getting around the city/ in and out of the city very easy. Me and my partner also work very close by which allows for a very convenient work/social life balance.

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

Certain free to use facilities we were told about are not currently in use (such as the ice machine). We believe this is due to a small portion of the property currently being occupied but it was a slight disappointment to see it out of use during the summer.

Good connections to the city by underground lines which are very close by. Good range of shops in the surrounding areas too.

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

Have a walk around the nearby areas as the surroundings are also important

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

This has been a lovely area to live at, the environment around and inside the building both are very pleasant and convenient.

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

Always helpful and quick to reply, I couldn’t be happier

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

I wish I knew that the rail noise could sometimes be louder than I’d like, since when windows are open, it can sometimes get a bit loud… that’s all.

Dear Azadeh, Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience! It’s great to hear that the reception team, especially Saad, has made such a positive impact. The shared areas really do add that extra touch of comfort and community, and it sounds like the rooftop birthday party was a fantastic way to celebrate! We’re so glad you feel at home here and appreciate you taking the time to let us know. Best regards, Darek

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

The building is close to the station with great links to the city centre. The choice of supermarkets could be better although there is a fairly big Lidl, it's just not my personal favourite. There are also nice sports facilities, like a tennis court and, a nice hot yoga studio nearby (all of these apart from a great onsite gym).

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

Everything was dealt with timely and of great quality.

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

Not something that affects me, but if you are a smoker, there is a no-smoke policy at any inside or outside areas of the building.

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

There are plenty of groceries and stores and very good access to public transportation which is very nice btw. The place is very clean and the garbage is easy to dispose.

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

Very promptly and effectively, They responded immediately after my call

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

I wish I could see the apartment before arriving from abroad since it had a couple of defects the staff of the building had to deal with during my day of arrival. It was somehow inconvenient since after a long trip I was very tired and not prepared to deal with problems at my arrival
