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.

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.

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.

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

Great location, multiple transport options in all directions. Area is always busy and plenty of events around on the weekends.

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

Pretty good, haven't had many issues. What I have raised has been addressed within a week. Once my partner was stuck in the elevator and the security guard got aggravated at her over the phone rather than helping
