Ten Degrees, Croydon

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

It's close to East Croydon Station so easy to travel in and out to London and Gatwick Airport. Not a great selection of supermarkets nearby, so you will need to rely on online deliveries.

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

Not quickly or efficiently. I have raised issues about cleanliness and broken things (eg TVs in communal areas) and they don't get addressed.

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

There is nothing in particular I wish I'd known before I moved in.

Nothing. Everything has been wonderful so far. No complaints

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

In terms of pragmatism, the location is great. Only a few steps away from the train station. A couple of nice coffee shops locally but Croydon clearly needs investment.

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

Yep, I have had some questions and they are always promptly answered.

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

Nothing comes to mind. Obviously you need to view the area and the complex and that the decision on tradeoffs. Croydon needs investment.

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

Croydon does have a lot of character and feeling, it unfortunately swings wildly between safe and unsafe. Multiple restaurants, cinemas, gyms within 15 minutes is always a good sell. Transport links are additionally excellent. The building does feel extremely safe and a lot of people around the building smile or politely hold the elevator for you etc. That being said, the anti social behaviour around the building and town centre can get a bit crazy. Living where I live, sometimes the smell of marijuana can be smelt walking into the development or in the town centre. It's unsurprising, but still a little bit disappointing.

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

I previously had a query on hanging things up using command strips and the building management team assisted with information very quickly.

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

Unfortunately, my main negative is about the heat. Even with the double, double doors- if the flat gets hot I find it difficult to cool the room down, in the height of summer if it's 33 outside then it's 31 degrees in the flat.
