Good we have a McDonald’s and M&S, Morrison and Lidl nearby as well as the subway, and railway lines. Bad thing is that the road is one way so it’s a pain to get out in the morning.

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

Very well and quick! I have never had to wait several days for help

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

That we didn’t get an extra chair included as stated on move in day

The area is peaceful and quiet. Even with the BAE Systems across the river, it doesn't cause any nosiness when the windows are shut. There are lots of shops just a 15-minute walk away, and the bars and restaurants are close enough to go to daily, but not so close that they could cause any noise.​​​​​​​​​

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

Any time there has been any issue, the team responded quickly and made sure that it had been resolved

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

The only ‘issue’ after moving in was that since the building is brand new, a lot of the times it is hard to find it by postcode when ordering taxis, take out or registering with an electricity provider.

I've been living here for two months now. Everything here is very comfortable. Twenty-four hour clean gym and very cozy public spaces. The nearby supermarket is also only about a 10 minute walk. Although I don't have any pets of my own, the pet-friendly policies and large green areas here are very other delightful. People and pets can live well here! The garbage room here is also very convenient, you only need to take the elevator to the negative floor to dispose of household garbage.

A short while after moving in, I accidentally lost my room card. Fiona at the reception was the first to help me get a new card and taught me how to set up my e-card. This was very helpful to me!

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

I wish there could have been more information about the apartment amenities, like the gym, common areas and neighborhood supermarkets more prior to moving in.

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

My area is generally a great place to live, with good amenities like restaurants and parks nearby. However, there's a lack of convenience stores, which makes quick shopping a bit inconvenient.

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

The building management has been very responsive to any issues raised, addressing them promptly and ensuring quick resolutions each time.

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

I wish I had known how few convenience stores are nearby. It would be helpful to plan grocery shopping in advance, as quick trips for essentials aren’t as convenient.

I really love the location of this building. It’s still in the heart of the west end but it’s quiet and not got too much noise going on. The transport links are great the subway, train station and buses are just a stone throw away. The parking outside the building seems a bit of a nightmare as I don’t drive but it’s a one way street which could of been better designed but I think that’s overall all the buildings issues not this one specifically but the underground car park is safe and secure . I never hear traffic, the only one thing that slightly annoys me is the alarms from the ships but not overall and it’s just being a bit nit picky

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

Yes they’ve all been dealt with promptly and quickly which has been great!

The water annoys me as I never have straight cold water out my tap. It’s also out a tank so theres certain times I don’t have hot water as it needs to be timed . I was told this when viewing but it is becoming more of a problem for me than I thought it would be
