The local area is full of life, stores owners are really kind , they are always helpful with customers and sometimes I feel like living in a small town within the city. The construction of the new shopping center might be a bit noisy but the developer always ingorm us on what is going on and keep the disturbance at minimum, we are all excited to see the completion of the new center!

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

The location is perfect for someone who is new to the country. You are very central and have ample transport at your doorstep. The bin area is absolutely filthy and nothing is done about it. Twice a week the bin area is absolutely covered with trash as tenants can’t be bothered placing there rubbish in another bin that is not within an arms throw of the door.

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

See above comment about the couch. In addition I have also had issues collecting my parcel after concierge is finished for the day. Had a security guard tell me that I couldn’t just take my parcel and I must wait until the morning even though my parcel was just sitting there with my name and address and I had ID on me.

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

That these events they tell about is minimal, when you view the place they sell you all these workout sessions and social events however there is nothing on the app.

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

It feels very developed. Many restaurants and shops are nearby, as well as gym facilities and supermarket. It’s very convenient. As a woman, the area does feel unsafe to walk alone at night - but I guess that is everywhere in London.

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

Very quickly and efficiently with compassion. I was surprised.

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

I wish I would have known the area would be surrounded by developers, construction sights and tall buildings that block the view.
