Dorian and other staffs helped me a lot. I’m satisfied with the apartment. However, the residents upstairs continuously make the noise of dragging furniture between 23:00 and 7:00. Even after repeated reminders from the management, the upstairs room still occasionally heard the sound of dragging chairs several times at three o'clock in the morning. The manager said that the apartment had bought carpets for the residents upstairs, but it sounded like the resident had never used them upstairs.

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

The managers are very serious about the questions I asked and solved them quickly. They are all friendly and enthusiastic.

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

The subway next to the apartment will vibre, which is unusually obvious in the middle of the night. Sometimes I am woken up by the bed in the middle of the night and thought it was an earthquake. Only later did I realise that it was the vibration of the subway.

I really enjoy living in this area. It's incredibly well connected, with both East Croydon and West Croydon stations just minutes away, so getting into central London is quick and stress-free. There's always something going on locally, from shopping at Centrale to food and drinks at Boxpark, and there are great restaurants and cafés all around. Everything I need day to day is within walking distance, which makes life here easy and convenient. Overall, it's a lively, practical and enjoyable place to live, and I'd happily recommend it.

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

The management team responds super fast. Whenever I've raised anything, they've sorted it out quickly and without any hassle. They're friendly, approachable and clearly care about the residents, which makes living here really stress-free.

Honestly, I wish I'd known how good the cleaning service and management team would be. I would have moved in even sooner! Everything has been easier than I expected.

The Quarters Swiss Cottage is located just a stone’s throw away from Finchley Road Underground station and Finchley and Frognal overground with great connections to Metropolitan, Jubilee and Mildmay lines connecting to the central London. Great selection of activities in the area, Waitrose just opposite the building and a Sainsbury’s 5’ walk away. Nearby selection of gyms, including 24/7 options, two cinemas within walking distance and an amazing selection of small local cafes and restaurants nearby. The street facing flats are exposed to some traffic noise, but the noise cancelling windows make up for it.

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

Quick response to either email, text or call. Any maintenance issues addressed within a day and fixed on the spot
