Good Value and Decent Facilities in a Central Spot

Charmi Thakor (Tenant)

Verified Resident

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

The area has a good mix of shops and places to eat, and most things you need are within walking distance. There are also a few green spaces nearby which are nice for getting some fresh air. Transport is one of the strong points—Stevenage station is close and makes commuting pretty easy. Buses run regularly too, although traffic can get a bit busy at certain times, especially near the retail parks. The street is generally fine. It can get a little noisy now and then, which is expected being close to the town centre, but nothing too disruptive. Parking is okay if you have a space, but it’s a bit limited for visitors. Bin collections are on schedule and haven’t caused any issues. Overall, it’s a convenient place to live with both positives and a few minor downsides, like most town centre locations.

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

The building management has been helpful and responsive. Any issues raised were dealt with in a reasonable time and communication was clear throughout.

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

One thing I wish I had known before moving in is that parking for visitors can be quite limited, especially during busy times. It’s worth checking what your options are in advance. Also, occasional noise from the town centre can be noticeable at times.

Quickly and with no bureaucracy. They sorted any problem within a short time.

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

Nothing important to consider at the moment. Overall, great experience.
