laundromat needs redeveloping immediately. half the dryers are out of order. the other half doesn’t dry your clothes. very expensive service for your clothes to still be damp + filled with detergent. because of the in-house laundromat’s shortcomings, i started going to the laundromat nearby. last time i went i got sexually harassed by a group of men on bikes. it seems like my only choices are compromising my safety or spending $10.34 on machines that barely wash my clothes and threaten to blow up every second. other residents are really inconsiderate and leave stuff in the worst possible state they can. a study room was left covered in bleach powder after someone had a full head of foils done in there. no attempt to clean up after themselves. the kitchen is FILTHY. i’m not sure if the ovens or stoves have ever been cleaned. if you’re doing a tour of the place, don’t be fooled by the amount of tvs and free netflix/kayo/youtube premium advertised. half of the tvs are disconnected from the internet or logged out. the actual rooms are fine. not really much to say about them. staff are great. management of the shared areas/services is just kinda eh. edit: oh my god. the dishwashers in the kitchen have damp. oh my god. PLEASE invest in a deep clean.

Everything else about the building is satisfactory, but the main issue is the elevator situation. The building has 36 floors and three elevators however, only two are consistently in operation, and the third does not appear to be undergoing any visible repairs. Over the past month, there have often been only two functioning elevators, and on some occasions just one, although those issues are usually resolved within the day. This raises the question of why the third elevator has remained out of service for such an extended period. If there is a significant underlying issue, it would be reassuring to see clearer progress or communication around repairs. As it stands, wait times can regularly reach 5–10 minutes, and journeys are often prolonged due to frequent stops every few floors. While the rest of the building meets expectations, improving the reliability of the elevators would make a noticeable difference to the overall living experience.

The building is fantastic, clean, luxurious, and modern with gorgeous study spots and common areas and has all amenities and games you want as a student and a super friendly staff but, be careful from room 110 which is a Studio Queen Accessible. It's located in the first floor on a corner and is the closest room to noises, by 2-6 am after midnight, there are plenty of garbage trucks that collect garbage from the building next to the apartment and plenty of workers who keep shouting and making noises, it's a struggle to sleep. I recommend you to stay away from the first floor especially this room. I hope the management could fix this only issue for this room. Come to this building for sure but please stay away from first floor especially this room!

Shaun was very patient and helpful. He helped me solve my issue and also assisted me with printing. The whole process was smooth and professional. I really appreciated his support and excellent residence service. 😊

I seriously do NOT recommend this student accommodation. The building has 3 lifts, but for over a month, only 2 were working — and now, for the past 2 days, it’s down to just 1 lift for the entire building, which has 36 floors and houses hundreds of students. Every day is a struggle. The single working lift is always packed, with long wait times and overcrowding. I’ve been late to both classes and work multiple times because of this. It's exhausting and completely unacceptable. Despite paying a high rent, the management does nothing to fix these ongoing issues. Their lack of urgency and accountability is shocking. Even the bin collection and other basic services are poorly maintained. If you're thinking about moving in here, please don’t waste your money. This place is not worth the stress. I genuinely wish I could give this place a negative rating.
