An Excellent Place to Live

Building layout is nice, there is a courtyard section in the middle with tables and chairs, rentable barbeques and pizza ovens. The apartments are sizeable and good value. Had a few issues when we moved in but staff made arrangements and the maintenance team quickly sorted them out. Management are very friendly and are willing to socialise and help out with any issues. The community at the forum is great too - I have made many friends since moving in, mostly down to the events that management put on! Seems like any reason they have, management throws a party. Christmas, Chinese new year, valentine's, Easter, Halloween, etc. Lovely initiatives. Lots of gated parking spaces available at a charge (around £100pcm, standard for city centre but still pricey!)

Needs to be refined

The management should be more careful about the tenant's enquiries. The maintenance team is too weak to detect the problems and fix them. Some matters should be renewed, but they don't care. More social events. More connections with tenants and their enquiries.

The management team is supportive! Kary Chung is super nice! I often contact her with questions, and she always replies quickly and patiently. Today, a staff member I contacted couldn't find parking. Kary helped by providing a temporary parking spot for 1 hour. That's very helpful!

The development is very modern, up to date and well thought out. The facilities such as gym, rooftop terrace, courtyard with bbq and pizza oven are a great touch. The management team have been nothing but friendly and helpful and are more than happy to answer any questions I’ve had. 10/10!
Manager response

Really nice building, I love the common areas, the relaxation area offer comfy seating and TVs. The reception area has a much needed coffee machine and water cooler alongside tables you can sit at if you work from home but want to get out of the flat (although the flats are really nice). The rooftop offers nice city views and is clean. The bbq garden is also a good idea - ideal for the next heatwave. The gym is good but some machines are not working such as the stair master, which a resident told me is new and only worked for a week.
Manager response
Hi Katie, Thanks for taking the time for a review, glad you are enjoying the building and the facilities, the stair master is back working again..someone ran off with the power cable for it... not sure why! But they have now been replaced. I'll look into that smoke alarm for you, swing by the desk if you have any questions and would like to be shown anything and myself or one of the team will be happy to help! Have a lovely week and enjoy the sun! Kind regards Matt
