Solasta Riverside, G5

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

The location is supreme - right next to city centre without the constant noise. Lidl 10 mins walking distance, Subway line 5-8 mins away and a bridge across to the city centre. The local shops also have excellent produce.

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

The building management is always keen to help and listen to residents’ concerns. Ryan especially has been extremely helpful and he goes the extra mile for the residents and always a pleasure chatting with him. Phil although is a new joiner to Solasta is also extremely well adapted and helpful to the residents. The staff is great and always make Solasta welcoming.

Walking distance to Central/Queen Station and the subway. Shared security with the Barclay campus is great.

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

The management team is helpful and responsive. The maintenance request through the online portal is simple. I appreciate that they have an inspection done before move-out day so I know if the inventory condition is good enough.

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

Bin room - too many residents, so it's hard to have everyone keep the bin room tidy. I know the mgmt team had put in a lot of time to make it look better.

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

There’s so much variety in the area we are spoiled for choice and it isn’t directly in the city centre, personally I think it’s perfectly positioned

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

We had dampness in our ceiling in a bedroom, we made a call and the building management was up straight away to have a look at the problem

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

There’s nothing that I’d wish I knew before moving in but I’m very glad that I did, our time here has been the best, and may there be many more

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

The area is okay, across the bridge is the town centre which is better than the immediate area. Antisocial behaviour is not too common, especially on the campus itself, feels extremely safe. Out with the campus, it isn’t an amazing area but there is definitely worse.

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

They are okay. Issues can be quite difficult to resolve that are more external, but small issues can be resolved fast.

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

The area isn’t as community and family safe as I thought, however the campus which the building is on with Barclays etc, is clean, safe, and a nice place to be
