I’ve had a great experience living at No26 . Hafeez has truly made a difference during our stay! he’s always there to look after us, incredibly responsive, and genuinely goes above and beyond. His dedication and willingness to help really make the community feel well-managed and welcoming. Highly recommend!
I moved here in April and have to say the management team is professional and friendly. There is a 24 hour concierge on the front desk and they handle any postal/package deliveries. There is a lounge/work area on the 1st floor and two terraces on the top of the building which are all accessible to all residents In the bottom outside the front door is a Starbucks and also a small restaurant. Just around the corner is a Co-Op. Its a 5 minute walk to East Croydon which is a Rail, Tram, Bus hub, and a 10 minute walk to get into central Croydon. The flats are modern, furnished to a high standard with modern Montpellier appliances (Fridge/Freezer, Washer/Dryer, Dishwasher, Oven/Hob). There is plenty of storage (I have a 2bed/2bath) and there is a entry way cupboard, plus storage in both bedrooms and plenty of storage in the kitchen area. The rooms are spacious without wasting space. Three lifts service the majority the building.
I visited Nº.26 (walk in), I went on another viewing and decided to visit here, too. Tiana showed me around, and she was amazing! She gave me a full tour, she was courteous, polite, and pleasant. Even though they didn't have the amenities I was after, recommendations were made for another building they managed, and I've now moved into that other apartment. But kudos to Nº26 and their staff!
I’ve been living here for 3 years now, and I have to say, the recent changes have been absolutely amazing. The new team has brought such a positive energy to the building, and I genuinely feel lucky to be part of this community. Hafeez is the friendliest concierge you could ask for. He’s always happy to have a chat and checks in with a smile, he really sets the tone for the day. Hannah has been a breath of fresh air! So approachable, understanding, and flexible. Habab never fails to brighten my day; she always greets you with a smile and feels more like a friend than a staff member. Johnny does an incredible job keeping the place spotless, and every morning before work, he makes sure to wish me a good day. It’s the little things like that which make such a difference. And Kouloud is just the nicest person, always looking out for the tenants and even our pets. This team is genuinely one of the best I’ve ever come across. Living here has been such a joy, and I already know I’m going to miss everyone so much as I’m moving out. Thank you all for making this place feel like home!
Since moving to No26, I couldn’t have asked for a better place to live. The rent is affordable for London, and the service is exceptional—particularly the ground floor, communal areas, and management spaces, which are all top-notch (and the music is a nice touch). My room is fantastic: modern, spacious, and comfortable, and any concerns I’ve had are addressed promptly by the management. I’ve been living here for a year now, and it’s been a truly enjoyable experience. The team, especially Hafeez, is incredibly welcoming, genuine, and knowledgeable—whenever I stop by to chat, I always leave feeling well taken care of. The apartments are spacious with high-quality finishes, and the amenities, particularly the co-working space and rooftop, are outstanding.
Posting this as the building is currently leaking in the lobby area and other apartments so they have turned off the water for the whole building. The water issues have been constant. Every week there seems to be an issue with having no hot water. Paying £1.7k a month to not be able to flush the toilet is ridiculous. There’s other issues that I’m not even bothered getting into but best to avoid moving into this building until they have some sort of way to quickly resolve issues or to make sure the same issue doesn’t keep happening. Side note: Shout out to Kamila who works downstairs because she’s always been so lovely and is quick to send emails out addressing issues
50/50 place, the staff & apartments are great/lovely. However, they got rid of the community perks such as socials and breakfast over covid never bringing them back even though the rent is extremely inflated. A major issue was continous water problems over 2020-2023 which is unacceptable. Lastly they are very slow at giving deposit back - I'm still waiting for deposit after almost 2 months
For the past two years we’re experiencing hot water and heating issues every single week. Also, there’s no insulation whatsoever which means you can clearly hear any noises coming from other flats as well as from the construction sites around. The whole building stinks and the management as well as security are very poor. The flats and furnishings, and some communal areas look beautiful but don’t let the looks fool you - the life at no26 is extremely low quality. PLEASE AVOID!
Building work opposite is pretty unbearable. If you are planning to live here, wait at least 6 months until it’s done. We have to keep our bikes in our flat because the bike shed has been broken into a few times, which is not ideal. The design of the flats are nice, however the furniture is made to a poor standard. Overall not great.
Fantastic place to live, coworking space and rooftop are amazing, staff are lovely and its very conveniently located, right next to the station and many shops and amenities nearby. It's a shame we haven't been able to make the most of the residents events and coworking space since Covid hit, but they were great beforehand and hopefully will be again once they are allowed!
