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.

Lovely building within close distance of the northern quarter and ancoats and many fun venues and amenities. Even though it’s on a busy road the apartments are quiet and cozy.

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

Promptly and thoroughly. Even when a solution couldn’t be reached (like when we inquired about adding a gate on the ground floor property) at least the issue was raised and discussed

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

If you are moving on a ground floor you might have to deal with passerby’s loitering on the steps or the occasional intoxicated person on a weekend but it’s overall a safe area and building.

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.

Although there are sometimes hiccups (which every building has) it's generally a very good place to live, definitely much better than many of the places I've lived in before

I’ve been very happy living in my local area. One of the best aspects is its central location-you’re close to everything you need, from shops and restaurants to public transport, which makes daily life convenient and enjoyable. Despite being in the centre, it doesn’t feel overcrowded or hectic; there’s a real sense of balance here. In the evenings, the area is generally peaceful and quiet, which is something I really value compared to other more bustling parts of the city.

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

The building management has been very responsive whenever I’ve raised any problems or issues. They handle requests quickly and professionally, and always keep me updated on the progress. Whether it’s a maintenance concern or a general question, the team is approachable and proactive in finding solutions. I’ve felt listened to and supported every time I’ve reached out, which makes a big difference in feeling comfortable and at home here.

The working hub in the building is a great resource, but I think it could feel even nicer and more inviting to use. Right now, it sometimes feels a bit too much like working in a library, where you feel you need to be extra quiet. Adding some gentle background office music or ambient sounds could make a big difference-helping to create a more relaxed and collaborative atmosphere, rather than a silent one

Living in the Marches is highly convenient for travel, transport, and day-to-day activities. The train stations and shopping centre are just around the corner—literally a five-minute walk away

They respond to our problems very quickly and efficiently
