The Octagon

“Replace the glazing or install secondary glazing to cut down on outside noise, especially from traffic.”

“I wanted to share a concern about the heating in my place. I let you know about the problem more than a month ago, and it still hasn’t been sorted. I’d really appreciate it if the heating could be fixed soon, because it’s getting harder to stay comfortable without it. Thanks for looking into this.”

“When I moved in, the place still needed a lot of proper cleaning and fixing, since there are several problems that haven't been sorted out yet. Also, the internet connection should be stronger.”

“There are communal areas available, but at the Octagon right now there aren’t any indoor communal areas.”

“The building and the rest of the facilities feel pretty outdated. Also, the bathroom is way too small.”

“There’s a lot of noise coming through, so I’d say thicker windows or adding secondary glazing would be the way to go.”

“It would be helpful to have more details about the recycling facilities. Also, since the bins are shared between the Octagon and Hayward House, it would really help if there were clear signs showing which bins are for recycling and which are for general waste, if that’s possible.”

“The interior design is just kind of plain, honestly. It’s a little dull for something you live in, and there’s nothing really fancy going on.”

“A spot in the building that’s easier to use for throwing away trash”

“Clearer guidance on how to use everything, like the heating, and exactly what comes with each apartment before we arrive.”
