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

The location is very central and highly convenient for a lot of things. However, it is right next to the train station which can be incredibly noisy with trains/announcements if you are on that side of the building. The lack of AC means summer is a choice of noise or heat. There is also some antisocial behavior in the area being in the city centre and the security measures of the building are terrible. Car park garage door has been broken for the entirety of my tenancy allowing thieves access, doors are constantly left open as the mechanism doesn't allow them to close. This has been raised by multiple tenants after incident and has not been resolved

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

The building management team are great but actually getting action from Grainger seems very protracted and difficult

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

Just how noisy the train station announcements were.

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

Close to the mall, in a safe area. No noise problem at all. Very conveniently located, near bus stop

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

Repair in good time, especially when I talk to reception

I have always have help from reception and they are super nice

We love the location here! We have the Coop, Italian Restaurant, bar, coffee shop and barber all downstairs. We also love that we are a quick walk to Media City, and the tram is just across the street. The aparments are walkable to multiple bigger shops, gyms, pilates, food and so much more!

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

If we have had any issues, the maintenance team and front desk team are extremely helpful and quick to get the problem solved!

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

We absolutely love it here, more than we expected to! It is truly better than we thought it would be. We love being able to get to city center quick but not living in the middle of everything. It is so nice to live close to the Quays and walk places!
