felt like there was something for everything, a fee for an extra guarantor, check in, and admin fees were rather high. Good thing we love the property, but I just wish they were more plain about the total cost because now the tenancy agreement has more little charges.

Is anyone going to seriously say they liked the fees? There was a lot of fees, and quite a few hidden ones as well. Obviously less than satisfied with Ascend on this, but if you're to find a decent property you don't have much choice.
