What I really like about here is its design. It has different workspaces and different environments and also the receptionists are really amazing. Randall and Harrita are amazing and others as well.

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

They are really nice people and helped me with everything I needed till now. They do really care

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

That I have to wait for parking. They might have mentioned that before:)

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

It’s close to pretty much everything in the city centre while still being in a peaceful area, close to nature and the river. I feel like it offers the best of both worlds because you’re close to all the hustle and bustle of the city without actually feeling like you’re in the middle of it.

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

Very quickly and kindly, open to figure the best solution out

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

I think everything was clear beforehand, as I had asked all my questions and the team answered them all.

You can't get more central. Cardiff Central is on the doorstep, so trains to London, Bristol and the Valleys are a two-minute walk. The city centre is just across the tracks, with St David's, the market and more restaurants and bars than I'll ever get round to. The Taff is right there for a walk, and the Bay is easy to reach in the other direction. Downsides? There's building work going on around the station and it gets busy on match days. That's the trade-off for being this central, and I'd take it every time.

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

Quickly, every time. Anything I've raised, however small, has been picked up straight away and sorted without me having to chase. There's always someone on hand, day or night, and they keep you posted on what's happening.

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

How much difference the staff would make. You can see the building is smart on a viewing. What you can't see is the team behind it, or how quickly you get to know your neighbours. If I'd known, I'd have stopped looking at other places much sooner. Tip for anyone moving in: ask the team for their local recommendations. They know the area inside out.

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

The area is fantastic, with plenty of shops, restaurants, bars and open spaces all within easy walking distance. Transport links are excellent, and the location is convenient for getting around Cardiff. The street is quiet, clean and feels safe, with everything you need close by.

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

The building management team have always been friendly, helpful and quick to respond whenever we have had any questions or issues. Communication has been excellent, and it’s reassuring to know that any concerns are dealt with professionally and efficiently.

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

One thing I wish I had known is just how convenient the location is. Having shops, restaurants, bars and transport links so close makes day to day life really easy. The building is also quieter and more comfortable than you might expect from a central location, which has been a really pleasant surprise.

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

Its a really amazing area right on the river. Close enough to town centre to easily walk while still feeling like you live in your own area and not right in the centre. The quad outside the front of the building is still under construction but there is word from the team that some promising commercial units will start filling in soon after its all done.

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

The building as responded to maintenance issues well so far.

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

it would have been good to have known the electricity setup would be such that you don't get to pick your own provider. There is still some confusion on what will happen with how this will be setup and charged.
