I was in a hurry to find a flat. Alice was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful from the very beginning. She actively helped me find available flats that suited my needs and asked her colleague Lauren on the day to take me to view the properties. Lauren was also incredibly professional, friendly, and caring during the viewings. Both of them went above and beyond to help me, and they were always proactive in solving any issues that came up throughout the renting process. I’m grateful for their support, kindness, and professionalism. They made what could have been a very stressful and difficult experience so much easier. Alice and Lauren are both wonderful members of the team, and I really appreciate everything they did for me. Highly recommended!

hard to get through to on the phone however Lauren was an absolute star and so helpful with me and my girlfriend renting for the first time. We had lots of questions to ask and we'd been stressing about all sorts and she really helped it all go smoothly. Many thanks to Lauren from Juno and Maisey xx

Lauren was fantastic throughout the whole letting process. She was always friendly, professional, and quick to respond to any questions we had. The move-in process was smooth and well organised, and her support made everything much less stressful.

Awful agents. We booked a viewing for a property and initially got one scheduled for a Thursday of the same week and they said we were the first viewing as that day was the first available slot for viewing. Thursday morning they left a voicemail saying they have to postpone (without giving a reason) and asked to call back. I called back immediately and they gave us the next Monday morning as earliest next slot. But Monday morning again they left voicemail to say the viewing has been cancelled because the property has been let. I get that the rental market is competitive but it felt like a discrimination as we were the first to book a viewing and they were the one who postponed our first appointment. The person I dealt with was also very unsympathetic, rude, and unnecessarily cold and cruel, and I wasn't sure she understood anything I was saying.
