Great flat!

Savanna (Tenant)

Verified Resident

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

Super convenient location with walkable access to anything you could need. Easy access to several tram lines. It can be quite loud at night but with the windows closed it can get quite warm in the flat. There have been a few instances of fights on the street outside and once a bin was set on fire. I still feel safe though as there is a security team outside at printworks. I don't drive but parking is quite expensive nearby.

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

Yes, they're quite good at responding and are such a friendly team.

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

How hot the upper floor can get in the summer, the noise level outside
