5Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Living on a very popular street for nightlife has proven to be less daunting as one might expect. The James from the first flat viewing ensured that the windows were designed for full sound installation which prevented sleepless nights on the busy evenings. Naturally, West Street is a fantastic location for restaurants/bars/shops to name a few. Also convenient for groceries and close to the hospital and train station. Transportation being easily accessible via the Supertram stop less than a minute walk. Parking availablity can be a premium but can be accessed for free street parking on Westfield Street in the off peak hours of the night allowing for easy accessibility. Bin collections are unnoticeable with the perk of the bin area being a tidy and well kept space with a water tap and sanitiser to disinfect handheld bins provided by the accommodation.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Quickly and with efficiency. I never had any issues that were long-term. Usually resolved within 48 working hours
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Possibly dealing with the heat, easy to underestimate but buying a fan and also getting out of the flat is important.

5Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Being in the centre of the city has plenty of perks. It is very central and easy to get around. It can be a bit loud at times but that will automatically come with living in teh city centre.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
We did have to push in order to get a couch but eventually in the end we were able to get one. Other tahn that any repairs or maintanence issues were dealt with promptly even though there were really issues in the flat.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
The flat itself is pretty straight forward. The noise can get a bit much especially because there are night clubs across the street but that has got nothing to do with the James

5Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Great place, located in a central position in the city centre of Sheffield. The downside is the proximity to multiple bars, which can cause quite a bit of noise during weekends, especially at night times.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Very quick turnaround times for any issues that I have encountered so far.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Would have been great to know that the street-facing studios can get a bit noisy because of the proximity to the bars across the street.
