“For the bigger units, I think the place should swap out the fridge and freezer. In my experience, having only a small shelf in a small fridge makes it really hard to fit all my food and personal items.”
“To get the heating system going.”
“Putting the door in the bathroom instead of having a wet-floor setup would be really helpful for keeping the whole space clean. When you shower right now, the water just spreads all over the bathroom. With the door in place, it would be a lot easier to contain it and manage the area.”
““I was hoping for a wider range of people and more of a mix in the flats, plus more events focused on accommodation so residents could actually connect. But the place felt pretty cut off, and there wasn’t much chance to meet the people next door, which made it hard to form any real relationships in the building.””
“The heating system isn’t working the way it should.”
