Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Best place in liverpool value for money. Right next to castle street and only a 12 minute walk to the train station. You've got multiple bars and restaurants and the docks is just down the road 2 mins walk if you're quick. It is not noisy although in the center and everything is organized and all amenities are close by.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
I can't complain. Always prompt in responding and always been helpful in my experience.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Nothing really so far. I'm enjoying my stay. Maybe keep the big screen in the lounge if possible that would be beautiful and during world cup pls!
Manager's response5Thank you so much, Omar! We're delighted you've enjoyed your time at The James and made the most of the facilities, events, and community. We're especially pleased to hear our team could help make your move to Liverpool an easy one. And we're glad to report that the big screen made a return for the World Cup!

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Living here has been a very pleasant experience. The local area feels exceptionally safe and quiet, which is exactly what I was looking for. There is a great range of local shops and convenient transport links nearby, making daily life very easy. The street is generally peaceful with minimal traffic noise, and the overall environment provides a real sense of security and comfort.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The management team is very responsive and efficient. Whenever I have a minor query or need assistance, they handle it promptly and with a very professional attitude. Their communication is always clear, which makes me feel that any issues I might have will be taken seriously and resolved quickly.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish I had known how peaceful and quiet the building actually is. It’s hard to judge noise levels during a short viewing, but after living here, I’ve found it to be a perfect environment for relaxing or working from home. I also didn't expect the management to be so attentive—the personal touch they add to every holiday and birthday is something you just don't see in typical apartment developments.
Manager's response5Thank you so much for your kind words and for choosing to extend your stay with us! We’re so happy to hear that you feel settled, comfortable, and at home here. It means a lot that you joined us for the Easter event, and we’re glad you enjoyed the little touches from the team. Creating a welcoming community is so important to us, so your feedback truly means the world. Thank you again for your recommendation and for being such a valued resident!

5Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Not fantastic for parking, bit every other imaginable amenity is within walking distance. Some noise from the clubs over the road until 3am most days, but with both windows shut and either a television or some music of your own on, you won't even notice.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
The only thing that might qualify as an issue was when my door lock was flashing red. I emailed Miri and it was sorted the next day.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The hobs are induction hobs and all of my favourite cookware was rendered useless!

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
The James is in an absolutely amazing location — right in the heart of Liverpool with everything on your doorstep. There's a fantastic range of shops, restaurants and bars all within walking distance, making it super convenient for day-to-day life. Transport links are brilliant too, with easy access to the city centre and beyond. It really is hard to beat as a location!
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Any time I've raised an issue or had a query, the team have been incredibly quick to respond and always follow through to make sure things are resolved. It's so reassuring to know that the management genuinely cares and takes things seriously — you never feel like you're being ignored or fobbed off. Really sets The James apart from other places!
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
There's not much I'd warn anyone about — it really does live up to expectations!
