Poor location, not much entertainment around. The good thing is that it's near the ocean, and there's a nearby bus station as well. Annoying & dangerous teenagers wondering around sometimes.

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

very fast, normally they come on the second day after your request.

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

The view is something to look forward to, but there's huge wind cause it's near the ocean. Be careful when you are entering the building cause there might be non-residents following you. Also DO NOT leave your stuff in the common room cause someone might just 'borrow' it.

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

Lots of local shops, a nearby cafe and bar and Lidl. Unfortunately lots of anti-social behaviour around the place and expensive car parking.

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

The receptionist has been very helpful with answering any questions.

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

The area is not that social, it's very boring. Also takeaways have to come across the bridge and are usually then cold! Views are amazing. Lots of international people here which is nice too.

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

There are many small shops around and Lidl that cover most of day to day needs. Good dentist clinics, nice cafe and a bar are within 50 metres from the building. Bus stop is also very close, underground parking is available.

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

We don’t have much problems so far but any small issue is resolved very quickly.

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

Very nice walk along Itchen river toward Victoria Park and swans that are always at the same place. Phone application that allows to open the doors without keys (fob).

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

Undoubtedly the landscape around this is nice, the nearest bus stop is about a 2 minutes walk but the train station takes about 10 minutes, there is a lidl nearby but there are very few restaurants in the neighbourhood. There is a definite possibility of encountering teenagers coming over and harassing passers-by while smoking weeds as well as illegally following the residents to break into the building.

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

Repair requests are responded to quickly, but the property managers are also unable to address the issue of teenagers breaking and entering and harassing tenants, which is not their problem.

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

There are teenagers in the neighbourhood who trespass and harass the residents from time to time.
