Review The Local Box - Singapore

Alejandro Cancino
Most of the positive reviews you see here are from agents/landlords. Don't stay here! So many better options everywhere else. As others have mentioned this place is very noisey and there is nothing you can do about it. If you think you are safe from the noise because you stay in a high floor, you are mistaken. Most of the facilities are very poorly maintained (many BBQ pits don't work, and the jacuzzi are under maintenance half the time).

The walls are thin and noise can travel in all directions, can even hear next door drag furniture. Renovation works from a few units seem to be endless, extend and extend Jacuzzis are not working mainly due to over usage. I have witnessed residents partying inside with drinks (omg they think this is a natural onsen is it). The exhaust noise at the corridors very evening is bad. Can hear with door closed. Management cannot do anything about it, which is ridiculous. There must be some switch or control somewhere to turn the exhaust fans off. This is not the only condo that is poorly built in S I believe.

AVOID THIS PLACE LIKE THE PLAGUE Always noisy, goodbye sleep: You can hear noisy renovations on other units 12-15 floors above/below your unit. Also, there are two major constructions happening outside and since windows were poorly made there will always be a lot of noise. Pricey to maintain: The developer of the building is no longer in business so if there is any issue (doors, kitchen, window) you'll have to pay $2k-$3k for a specialist to fix. Some units also suffer from mold problems and the landlords dont want to pay. Old Facilities: The jacuzzi on the 72/56 are not properly maintained. You can see the wood creaking and the tiles falling out. Some friends have gotten serious cuts.

Here is an unpopular opinion which I think you prospective buyers should consider when viewing this place. There is a HUGE LOUD NOISE construction next door that will definitely bother you when you have your WFH conference calls. Close the windows you can still hear the drilling, the hammering and the metal clanging continuously from 8 am to 7 pm (sometime even more!). Sometimes it feels like having my teeth drilled in the dentist. If you guys are thinking of staying here don’t get units facing the construction or just postpone until they are done with this construction. Honestly it’s super noisy. Below is the view from my window. Bye bye privacy.

Beautiful location. Near MRT. Many eateries around the condominium. 72 Floor 360 units condominium. Studio, 1, 2 & 3 bedroom. Facilities at Skysuites @ Anson include swimming pool, lap pool, Jacuzzi, tennis court, function room, gym, BBQ pits, playground and dining lounge. For those who have the vision… the ultimate reward. Ascend to 360 Degrees (Level 72) and luxuriate in the awesome spectacle that awaits you.

Avoid renting or buying this place at Skysuites@Anson, there are much better options out there. The condo facilities are old and poorly maintained. The condo is surrounded by 2 ongoing constructions right in front, 6 days out of 7 days a week you will be hearing the drilling and pilling sounds, which can be really disruptive and too loud for you to take a zoom call meeting. Fuji Xerox Tower in front only just started the pilling construction. In the daytime, you will not be able to open the windows as the construction sound is non-stop and loud. The tennis court is always booked and very hard to get a slot. The brand of the kitchen appliances Blomberg that came with the units are no longer in Singapore, hence there is no service centre for repair, and if the appliance breaks down, the only way is to replace it totally. Some friend has the bedroom door fallen due to the poor workmanship by the developer for Skysuites@Anson. So be aware of the fixtures in the units as they are costly and hard to repair.

Nice tennis court with moderate run off space. The only thing is that the food exhaust of the buildings gets dispelled above the street level and do travel up to the courts. That’s not too ideal.
