Gravity Co-Living Finsbury Park

Late 2022 I received news that I would be moving to London at short notice. It was an exciting but stressful time as the market was very constrained. I came across Gravity Co-Living and was initially impressed, and started to make inquiries. The small window of time in which I had to sort things out means that I regularly call the sales team (which is only made up of two people). Ultimately, I paid a 300 deposit for a room in West Court just before offices closed for the Christmas holidays. I had not signed a contract. When offices reopened on 3rd January, I decided I no longer wished to move into Gravity Co-Living. I spoke with Melina, who came up with some ridiculous reasons as to why I could not receive my deposit. Apparently they had lost tonnes of business, which was impossible considering I called to cancel my room the very day they'd reopened for business. And apparently they'd already cleaned my room which, in my opinion, was over-zealous on their part since I had not signed a contract nor confirmed that I was going to move in. Not to mention they fail to have any sort of deposit-policy on their site. Melina then became extremely rude and patronising, stating that I had wasted her time with the times I and my mother had called with questions about the property. This was unfounded to me - it bewildered me that she was complaining to me that she had to do her job! The insanity of the conversation only worsened - she said that she apparently does not have a manager when I asked to speak to one, and the entire team read complaints and come to a decision as to how to handle it together. Finally, she gave me a generic email that I could apparently issue a complaint. I did so, and it took a fair amount of time before someone got back to me. A woman by the name of Susanna Rock, who did not actually say what her title was within Gravity Co-Living, got back to me. For all I know, Susanna Rock was a made up individual and it was Melina conducting that email - that's how ridiculous it has been dealing with these people. Susanna's response to my complaint was non-productive, and something my bank made no sense of. I am currently in the process of attempting to retrieve my 300, but I severely regret the day I found this odd rental. Melina ruined my experience entirely, to the point where I did not feel comfortable living there any longer. As an adult woman, I did not appreciate being talked down to by someone who is meant to make people feel welcome and informed. Apparently her conduct was being "investigated", but nobody got back to me when I asked for an update. On the whole, this was a massively negative experience and I wish to warn everyone to be careful when dealing with Gravity Co-Living.

On the website it states that part of the high rent price, you get different benefits included (i.e., dinners, events, breakfast, etc.) but unfortunately you dont get any of this. Makes the rent far to high for very small rooms.

I've loved my stay at Gravity Finsbury. There's a real and fun community feeling which makes it feels like home very quickly. The rooms are well designed and clean and the garden is an amazing plus. The location is great also with parks at both ends of the street (Finsbury Park & Clissold Park); and of course nice cafes, pubs and the tube at walking distance. And finally the staff has been so nice and helpful!

I've loved my time at Gravity and I'm sure I will continue to. The sense of community is better than any other Co-living I have ever lived in, the rooms are are modern and conformable and also the staff at gravity are incredibly helpful, caring and welcoming.
