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

    Relatively quiet given York Rd and railway nearby. Convenient access to Coal Drops Yard and KX. A shame the area under the rail bridge is so badly littered all the time

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

    Front desk very helpful and all staff friendly, including cleaners

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

    I know the area well, so no surprises, but for those who don't the relative quiet bit with easy access to the bustle of Coal Drops Yard

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

    The location, particularly of the 390 bus stop was essential to our commute, and its convenient location in front of the building was perfect. Lastly, the proximity to a park and shopping made the stay that much more pleasant.

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

    Yes, the maintenance responded quickly when our air conditioning had issues.

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

    I wish I had known about the expensive parking cost.

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

    I quite like Granary Square, regents Canal, and Camden town. The busy stop is very close that can take you to kings cross which takes you anywhere in London

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

    What make the place even better the friendly team around who are very easy to reach on WhatsApp, and they organise nice events for the community I would like to thank Russel, Edison, Sergey and everyone who added to our experience.

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

    I wish parking was included with the rent! The team explained a head that the parking is not included with the flat rent

    Manager's response

    Dear Momin, We're delighted to hear that you're enjoying the building's amenities, modern design, and convenient location. It's great to know that features such as the lounge, cinema, and easy access to King's Cross, Granary Square, Regent's Canal, and Camden Town have helped make your stay enjoyable. We're especially pleased to hear your kind comments about our team. Providing a friendly, responsive, and welcoming environment for our residents is a top priority, and your recognition of Russell, Edison, Sergey, and the wider team means a great deal to us. We'll be sure to pass on your thanks. We also appreciate your feedback regarding parking. While parking is offered separately from the rent, we understand how valuable this amenity can be and thank you for sharing your thoughts. Thank you again for your wonderful review and for being part of our community. We look forward to continuing to make your experience a positive one. Kind regards, Darek

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

    The apartment complex is in a great location. There’s a wide variety of restaurants, parks, galleries, markets really all you need. Public transportation is nearby about a 5 min walk from kings cross st prancas. Great for work trips and holiday.

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

    Everyone has been very helpful. At the beginning of my stay I was having trouble with my water temperature Edson took the time to have someone booked to take care of it. It’s so important to have smooth resolution when you’re not home and that’s what he made happen.

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

    It’s a great location I advise everyone to explore and take different routes to find the little gems in every corner.

    Manager's response

    Thank you, Liliana, for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed both the apartment and the building's amenities, and that our location made your stay convenient and enjoyable. It's especially rewarding to know that the nearby restaurants, parks, galleries, and transport links helped you make the most of your time in London. A special thank you for your kind words about Edson. We'll be sure to share your feedback with him.  We truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and your recommendation to explore the hidden gems around the neighbourhood.  Warm regards, Darek

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

    A direct bus (390) about 10m from the apartment makes travels to and from the city very convenient. A 10 minute walk to the canal areas that is very lively with shops , cafes and pubs. Kids walked 15 minutes from Kings Cross station frequently.

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

    Very fast response and able to answer our questions.

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

    Provide shower gel. Hygienic instead of sharing soap bar. Good to inform in the information deck for us to bring our own shower gel. Install bidet in the WC.

    Manager's response

    Dear Helmy, Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We're delighted to hear that you and your family enjoyed your stay and felt comfortable in the apartment. It's great to know that you appreciated the furnishings, modern design, convenient location, and the sense of safety provided by our front desk and security teams.
