Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Perfect location in city center, modern flats, can be a little bit noisy when there are Sheffield marathons and the odd drunk people shouting, but usually fine
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Yes, Jessica the Senior Consultant on site is usually very helpful
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
That the building only runs on one meter and that they would attempt to charge us for the whole building's excess energy usage, despite the contracts explicitly stating the limits of our specific flat.

Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
There’s a new building being built next door so is extremely noisy, the fire alarms go off all the time for long durations as staff don’t know how to turn them off. Often at night. Extremely annoying.
