Central location makes for convenient living. The Great Eastern pub can be noisy but are doing more to police it now.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Robin has been fast and responsive to any maintenance requests, and accommodating with any help or concerns we've had.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
We love living in Brighton! There are so many lovely cafes nearby, lots of great restaurants and of course we love the beach!! For those who live in London but wanting the ocean, Brighton is the perfect place for you!
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
They are always quick to respond to any questions we have.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
We wished we knew more about bill costs ie electricity and council tax.
Manager's response5Hi Chris, Thank you so much for your lovely review, your kind words mean a lot to us! It is a pleasure having you all staying with us, and we look forward to the future :)

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Very convenient for transport, shops and local pubs/restaurants. The street itself is fine but central Brighton in general does have a problem with antisocial behaviour and drug use. Luckily our flat is high enough above the street level as to not get any noise.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
We've only had a small question about the windows and the team arranged a visit from maintenance very quickly.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I'd known that the broadband would take a couple of weeks to be connected - I could've started this process before we moved in. It was probably only an issue because we were the first tenants.
Manager's response5Hi Robin, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, the feedback ensures that we can constantly be improving in the areas that we need to! We will certainly take on board your advice about the key fobs and the meeting room. We appreciate you renting with us and look forward to the future :)

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Fantastic location and great transport links. On-site parking is unfortunately not available. There is a noisy (but great) pub next door, but the windows effectively block out the sound.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Arranging maintenance through the building app can be a little slow, though things are sorted in the end. Maria is great at booking in repairs right away if you mention a problem to her directly.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Nothing to add. We have absolutely no regrets in moving here.
Manager's response5Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this review. Getting to read positive feedback makes us feel truly appreciated for the hard work we put in. We are super proud that we are able to offer our tenants the use of a free gym so its nice to see that it is going to good use! We have plans to roll out a new version of the app in the near future, so hopefully this will ensure that things are moving in the right direction. Thanks again for your kind words, it is a pleasure having you rent with us:)

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Very close to the station and in the north Laines at the base of London Road - amazing location can’t really be beat
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes very quickly, only some recurrent problems with the lift which can’t seem to be fixed
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Gym can get quite busy and it’s quite small - could use more equipment or a larger space
Manager's response5Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback about The Blockhouse, we love to learn more about the areas in which we need to improve! It is great to hear that you love our location and that you would recommend us despite the issues you have faced with the lift. Hopefully, these have been resolved now for you. Thank you for being a part of the Blockhouse community! :)
