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

THE GREEN ROOMS MEDIACITYUK is situated in a perfect position for our needs. We were firstly sold on the view of our apartment. We have an L shape balcony that overlooks the canal, and extends to the side for perfect sunset viewing. The area is great for us. We love the modern city living feel, but with a much quieter area that is Media City. The bars and restaurants in the vicinity are great, being able to go for a nice dinner, an afternoon drink, often have live music and / or a great vibe always. Initially, grocery shopping was not that convenient as there are no major shops around. The local General Store did the trick for quick few item pick ups, but with the new CoOp having opened, which is a decent size and allows for more cost effective grocery shopping has changed that. The tram being a quick 3min walk away, allows us to easily pop across to a lidl just a few stops away which also solves that inconvenience. Being able to grab a Costa on the way to work, is the best part, basically on the doorstep, and a lovely breakfast bistro across the road for easy weekend treats. Honestly, the position fits every requirement we have!

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

Yes, we were experiencing a lot of 'dust' in the apartment. They arranged for the air filters to be cleaned for us in a timely manner. During this, the maintenance bloke, dropped a pipe on our wall, which marked it, but very quickly came and sorted that out with a fresh coat of paint. Very happy with the way they handle queries in a very timely manner.

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

Moving in / out your apartment can be quite a mission as there are only two elevators to service 19 floors. Arrange for early morning / late evening if you can. And ensure you speak to the management about getting a key to lock the elevator for your use only. This makes it quicker and tenants aren't trying to fit in elevators with you and all your stuff.

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

The development is close to lots of amazing bars, shops, public transport and facilities - as well as some lovely dog walks! It can get quite cold and windy by the canal but on the whole it is a lovely place to live.

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

The building was always very quick to respond to issues, apologising and fixing problems as soon as possible.

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

The heat of the building - we were on one of the higher floors and there is no way we would have known how hot it gets on one viewing.

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

The area is a lovely place to live. A local shop near by to grab essentials as well a range of bars, coffee shops and food places to pick from. The area is quiet at nice.

Nothing bad. It’s all been good. Everything has been as expected.

There's a lot to like with the location of the Green Rooms. You're surrounded by a lot of good places to go out and socialise with the Lowry and Kargo Mkt very close by as well as tram links a couple minutes walk away. One critique would be the cars racing outside at night but this isn't an everyday thing.

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

They have been quick and attentive to any issues we have had and quick to resolve them.

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

The Apartments can get very hot. Which is a good and bad thing depending on the season.

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

Near the tram and a car park and lots of options around for things to do and places to eat. Some noise at night but I feel safe around Media City. I’m very lucky to have a flat that looks over the water and the sunsets are incredible!

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

Management always responds quickly and maintenance are lovely and have fixed all my issues without problems.

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

It can get really hot so I’d recommend getting a portable air conditioner. On the plus side, I have never turned my heating on the whole time I’ve lived here. Parking is also very expensive for a monthly permit.
