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

It's a quiet and peaceful residential area. While there are not many pubs and bars around Canary wharf is a short walk or bike ride a way and you can find everything you need there. There's a Sainsbury's nearby and also a cute bakery/cafe and park a short walk away. The canal is also close by and I often go running there. Hackney Wick is also a 15 minute bike ride away.

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

There have been a few minor issues and they've always been addressed immediately.

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

Some flats have minor differences in colour scheme and details despite the layouts being more or less the same.

Just to clarify, the Cinema Room and Private Dining Room are free to use. There is only a cost should you wish to book for exclusivity. Please do approach any of the on-site team should you have any queries.
