I moved to Manchester last July after a bad experience with another agency I was hesitant to find another property and go through it all over again, but ascend have been amazing to me and my housemate - nothing was too much trouble and we felt more than confident going with ascend and in the future would recommend to anyone to use them :) thank you!!
