    Reviewer was offered an incentive for an honest review, regardless of rating

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

    The property is very close to West Street and Division Street and is in a very lively location. Springfield School and Gell Street Park are right behind the property. The University of Sheffield is just up the road.

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

    When the fridge broke down and the ceiling had a wet patch, they tended to it relatively promptly.

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

    The heat retention in the apartment is quite poor.

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

    Living on Gell Street is great if you love being in the heart of the city. The location is ideal—I can walk to shops, restaurants, and bars in minutes. There’s always something happening nearby, whether it’s grabbing a coffee, meeting friends for food, or just enjoying Devonshire Green. That little park is a lifesaver when you need some fresh air or a quiet spot. Transport is super convenient, with buses and trams close by, but I barely need them because everything’s so central. The street itself is a mix of old and new. The buildings have loads of character, which I love, but the area can get noisy at times, especially at night when the bars nearby are busy. It’s part of the charm of living in a lively area, but it might not be for everyone. Bin collections are pretty reliable, and the council does a decent job keeping the area tidy. Occasionally, you’ll spot a bit of litter or hear some late-night commotion, but I’ve never felt unsafe here.

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

    Whenever there’s been a problem, whether it’s a maintenance issue or a request for repairs, the management team has been quick to acknowledge it and often resolves the issue within a reasonable time frame.

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

    Guidelines about setting up utilities. Water, electricity and wifi.

    Manager's response

Thank you for your feedback regarding modernisation - I have passed this on to the wider team. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need anything; we’re always happy to help. All the best,
