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

It's quite close to everything, you're pretty much at the heart of the city center and you get the easy access to buses, train station and shops... The noise however is damning especially on Friday and Saturday nights.

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

Yeah, every issue raised through the portal system is treated with urgency

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

The apartment in itself is noise proof but not enough to save you.

LiveOasis at St Albans Place is in a prime location in Leeds. You're minutes away from the city centre, with a great range of shops, restaurants, and bars nearby—everything from local cafes to major chains. The area feels vibrant and well-connected, with plenty of open spaces like Woodhouse Moor within walking distance. Public transport is reliable, with regular buses and Leeds train station not too far. Parking can be limited, and bin collection is consistent but occasionally disrupted by streetworks. Overall, the street is lively but not too noisy, with minimal antisocial behaviour.

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

The building management has been responsive and helpful, usually resolving issues promptly and keeping residents informed.

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

I wish I had known how limited the parking options are nearby—it can be a challenge if you have a car. Also, during peak times like move-in weeks, the lifts and maintenance services can get quite busy. I'd recommend planning around that.

Living in my area on Wade Lane, Leeds has both good and bad sides. There are many shops, supermarkets, restaurants, and takeaways nearby, so it’s easy to find what you need. The Merrion Centre and Trinity Leeds are close, and you can walk to them in a few minutes. Buses are easy to catch, and the train station is about a 10–15 minute walk away, so travelling is simple. But during busy hours, traffic can be slow. The street is mostly quiet, but sometimes at night, there can be noise because it’s near bars and clubs. The bins are collected regularly, but sometimes they get too full. Parking is hard to find. There’s not much anti-social behaviour, but it can happen once in a while. Overall, it’s a nice place to live with a few small problems.

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

The building management has been quick and helpful in responding to any issues. Maintenance requests are usually handled within a day or two, and the staff are friendly and professional.

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

One thing I wish I had known before moving in is how noisy it can get during weekends due to nearby bars and clubs. It’s manageable, but light sleepers might want earplugs. Also, parking around the area is very limited, so having a car here isn’t ideal. I’d suggest future tenants plan around using public transport or walking.

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

It’s slightly 5 min far from city centre and no bus stops next to my apartments. But otherwise it’s all good

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

They have come to look into it but no resolution. It’s almost an year I am stuck with a broken Tv

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

I like the location so that’s good. The facilities are good too so no complaining as such. Room sizes again like I said are tiny compared to the price I am paying

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

The building is located in a great location for the city centre. It is by itself which can be good for quiet living. Parking availability is one downside food deliveries and deliverieis in general cannot park up as it is awkward.

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

Sometimes they have been slow and i have had to contact multiple times to get a serious answer.

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

The parking situation would have been good to know.
