Design from outside is great but inside the building is falling apart, no cctv and the carpets are not so nice.

Design from outside is great but inside the building is falling apart, no cctv and the carpets are not so nice. There are no facilities in the building, you can not access the rooftop terrace as it’s only for pent house tenants also the lifts make a horrible sound

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

Good: location and view Bad: the management company are not helpful, parcels get stolen and they say sorry we can’t put a CCTV as it’s too expensive. Also, the building has silverfish, no matter what you do. You just can’t get rid of them, they live in the walls of the building, the rooms are tiny.

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

Silverfish- you just can’t get rid of them Lifts make a horrible sound No cctv

Please share one thing (or more) which you would change about your development:

I would ask them to have a cctv, better lifts which don’t wake you up

Modern, affordable and great location, not the biggest

Seb R (Tenant)

Design of the building and the flats is very modern and well equipped for basic usage. The flats aren't huge but the studio and one beds do suit single tenants well. Facilities are okay, there are 2 lifts which is useful as they are 12 floors, packages get delivered nicely in the mail room / entrance if you're not in, and the locked bin and bike storages are very useful. I would say given the size of the properties (studio and 1 bed) it can be frustrating with some items like a very small fridge freezer and little space in the kitchen, but enough to do basic things. Management otherwise seem okay, haven't needed to get in contact too much but they do organise window cleanings and lift maintenance regularly and notify tenants with paper notices in the foyer and in the lifts. Would mention as of April 2020 fibre is unavailable so very slow internet across the building but FTTP coming "soon". Also, building usese only electricity so bills can be a bit pricier but on the plus side it's a bit greener and safer

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

very safe, close to train line and a short walk from the city centre with a nice scenic view along the river. However, nearest shop is just a convenience shop, nearest proper shop is a 10 minute walk away and is only a small tesco which is annoying

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

Have only had one problem which was reported, however was responded to quickly. Did take 2 weeks or so to get solved however which was much slower than previous renting experiences i've had but not too bad

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

I wish I'd have known how slow the internet would be (April 2020) and how expensive the bills would be for heating

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

There are no parking services, this is difficult as itsmaim mode of transport

parking facilities are the only real problem for me

again, parking is the main issue and it would be really good to have somewhere close to leave the car

Nice flat with modern facilities and design It isn't very well insulated and can get cold and would perhaps benefit from floor heating The footbridge can be loud late at night especially with suitcases
