Stratford is a very varied neighbourhood with a lot of amenities including the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and the large Westfield shopping centre which stocks the local area with everything residents might need.

Swiftly, I had a wifi issue and they had immediately scheduled a visit on the same day.

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

Train noises from the neighbouring Stratford International station is quite intrusive. However the facade was well designed enough that it is very acoustically insulative against this fault.

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

Being walking distance from Westfield mall, it is highly convenient. From the best brands for shopping, to great restaurants and cafes, everything is at an arms length. The area is safe, with huge parks and outdoor workout facilities. The Stratford underground and national rail are also at a walking distance, making commute quite easy and accessible. Overall, this location is ideal in all aspects.

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

They have been quick and efficient with their response.

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

Easy and various access points are available between the hotel and the lofts. Also, the loft concierge can be of assistance with getting print outs or any bookings required.
