Nothing special but does the job.

The design of the flats is very simple but functional. You can tell the development was built cheaply but rarely had a problem with anything breaking etc. when we have had any problems they have always been fixed however this usually takes a considerable amount of time to happen.

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

Tesco Express, Co - Op, Petrol station with Asda express, subway and Greggs, all within walking distance. Tram stop over the road. Would not recommend a car as high monthly parking costs and poor availability of free parking. Great open spaces around Salford Quays which is great for a walk etc. Bin collections seem great it’s dealt with by the maintenance team. The development is on a busy road but noise has never been a problem.

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

Always been resolved but can sometimes take time maintenance team often has long waiting lists so have to prioritise

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

Security guards are excellent, and super helpful. Ventilation is very poor.

Poor design.

Fact that the windows dont open in the vast majority of these flats is unforgivable! Incredibly hot and stuffy, hard to get rid of smells. I had to move under unexpected circumstances otherwise I wouldn't have chosen this development. Other than that flats are quite basic but do the job. Definitely not value for money though.

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

The area is fine, lots of similar developments. Main transport link is the tram but there are some buses. Lots of shops nearby.

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

Lift is currently broken with no timeline on when it will be fixed. Security team are the best bet to get quick and friendly help with any issues.

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

For some reason you can't access your own meter to take readings, you have to email security to ask for them.

Good location, bad development.

The building is disappointing. The furniture is poor quality and that is mostly felt in the kitchen. The shelves are so poor that they bend if you place plates or glasses in the middle. The extractor hood does not work well also. The worst part is the fact that the windows do not open. Not even in the kitchen. This is truly awful as it gets really hot when there's over 20 degrees outside and the smell from cooking takes very long to go away. There is a ventilation system, but it is clearly not enough. It is an awful situation. I would have left a good review if not for the windows.

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

The area is overall nice to live in. It is well connected by frequent trams and busses. It has grocery shops, gyms, a cinema, a theater, a number of pubs and restaurants. It is also safe, and the quays are a nice place to spend some leisure time.

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

They are unable to solve the problems that we have (the windows not opening).

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

The windows do not open. The ventilation system is bad. The gym in the development is very bad as well. It only has poor quality cardio machines.

The design is good not amazing because there are no windows that open. The building and property management leaves much to be desired as they don’t reply in a timely manner and maintenance does not always get done. On the second floor there is a terrible smell that has not been dealt with. Security guys are really good and friendly

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

It has a lot of local shops and restaurants which are really nice. Parking is ok and minimal traffic noise with minimal antisocial behavior. The area is really good to live in

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

Not well - the previous tenancy care manager would not respond and when he did he didn’t address our concerns

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

That the windows do not open and the balconies have weird stones on them
