Edit: I have amended some of the cons due to Noble's quick response in fixing them, and updated the review to four stars
Have lived in the Printworks building now for 2.5 years.
Pros:
- Excellent location (close to Moor, multiple supermarkets, cinema, bus routes)
- Good level of privacy, no issues of frequent viewings nor with maintenance coming into the flat without enough warning
- Maintenance and housekeeping staff are friendly
- Design of the flat is sensible and it is a comfortable living space
- Thick walls, so there isn't a big issue of noise from other tenants
- Recently reported maintenance issues have been dealt with at a reasonable speed
- (Edit) Issues with laundry machines detailed below have since been fixed, and this was done very quickly, which I appreciate
Cons (Please see edits on the first and last points)
- Washing machines are very grimey on the inside and not pleasant at all to use. (Edit: these have since received a thorough clean, which was arranged very quickly after I raised the issue. Thank you, Jade!)
- Had some issues when first moving in with disorganised key handover, which caused a fair bit of stress. We ended up having to drive to a separate location to pick up a spare key to use. Not sure if organisation has improved in the 2 years since I moved in.
- Wifi is not password protected, but is fairly reliable. Also limited to three devices per person, which I didn't know before moving in. (Edit: See agent's reply below, which I think satisfactorily resolves this issue)
In summary, had some issues with disorganisation when moving in, but once you actually get moved in, it's pretty hassle free and quiet. (Edit) I also appreciate that issues raised in this review have been speedily dealt with.

Hi Lydia, Thank you for your review. Since you moved in we have made some significant changes to our business structures and the way we operate now so the move in issue should not occur for anyone future and we do sincerely apologies this occurred for yourself. In regards to the washing machine's following your report of this we have now instructed a new in-depth daily clean and also replacing all the seals on the machines. In regards to the wifi it is not password protected but it is a secure network that only registered devices can access, 3 devices is just the standard upload, if you require more please let me know and I can authorise this with the providers and they can add additional devices for you. Thank you again for your review and we hope you begin to notice the changes through the rest of your stay, thanks again.

David, you lived with us for 12 months, you then booked another property with us which you failed to complete the documentation in time so the booking was cancelled and the flat was relet. We then didn’t have any availability when you reapproached so if everything was so awful, why would you re-apply and then re- apply again? ...

Thank you so much for actually communicating with me. I received no communication after emailing to say I had bed bugs. Even after, I’m now being gaslit claiming I ‘had no bed bugs’ and I ‘stole’ this supposed mattress with bed bugs (which makes no sense). I will attach the evidence below: Purchases of bed bugs spray that I made myself since I tried to get rid of them myself before even complaining. An email I made to the staff. The phone call I made asking them to pick up the mattress ...

I'm sorry that you, like so many others have had to deal with Jade and Gary and the monsters who are Noble. They scammed me into a 12 month contract at over £1000 per month for a studio apartment which hadn't been built yet, top floor apartment with a broken elevator and a concrete stairway with no hand rail.
Rats and mice everywhere, air B&B users walking past your window and staring in, their employeers letting themselves into my room whenever they wanted and going through our possessions, ...

Hi Ruby, very sorry to hear that. Unfortunately I made the biggest mistake in renting with Noble at the Lightbox this year. I signed for a flat but just under two weeks before I was due to move in Jade told me I couldn't have it. I have also had the displeasure of talking to 'Kylie' who is very rude and blunt. I had to settle for a different flat in the same building and now I'm desperately trying to leave. Jade is so incompetent and rude, I honestly don't know how that stupid company is running ...
