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

The area below the building was not great, not well kept from neighbouring houses and buildings but always felt safe and the staff were great. It's a very convenient location right next to shops and Wembley central station. Only drawback was in summer our apartment would get very warm, and opening the windows was really noisy with the high street right there. The sirens from police, fire and ambulances sounded like it was right outside and pretty constant as they are based just around the corner.

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

Staff were generally swift with sorting out any issues, had good experiences with them.

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

That the fire station and police station are just down the road, the constant sirens are noisy.

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

Lots of shops close to the building, easy access to the station. Can be busy on the high street on the weekends and lifts sometimes take a while to be fixed after breaking down.

Fast to fix issues inside the property but much slower with regards to the lifts breaking down.

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

The Bakerloo line often terminates at Queen’s Park so it can be difficult to get back to Wembley Central during rush hour as subsequent trains are usually packed.
