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

Marches is located centrally in woking town and every shop and train station is in few minutes walk from it. Best place to be living in woking. Wonderful view of woking from cosy area and from the balcony.

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

The management has been able to resolve my problems very promptly and professionally. They also offer extra services like balcony cleaning which was handled by Ryan who made the process transparent and did a fantastic job in cleaning the balcony very efficiently. Also, there are many other instances where the maintenance team Pedro and Nkosi were very helpful in resolving the issues raised for repairs in the apartment.

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

The information about hefty standing charges on the electricity and water bills are something that would notice once you move in to the building. Also, drawback of having this building centrally located is that it does not offer parking services on its own, rather need to get separate parking pass from woking council to park your car, which is an year round pay service on top of rent. An allotted parking space should have been an important service that could have been offered.

Lived here 3 years, no issues. Maintenance issues always sorted. Concierge/security staff all friendly. Recently had a balcony clean service from Ryan who did a great job and was friendly. Shout out to Pedro too for arranging for my fridge to be replaced. Final thanks to Meghan for helping me with my rental agreement.

Probably if a recycling drop off for heavier items, once in a couple of months or so, could be organized then that would be great.
