Artistic Spaces Anmeldelser 61

Adi has been lovely from the moment I arrived. Super welcoming, friendly, and easy to talk to. He's been very very helpful with any questions I had and created such a positive atmosphere.

We have been renting with Artistic Spaces for two years and have had a really positive experience throughout. As first-time studio renters, they have been incredibly accommodating and supportive, making the whole process feel straightforward and welcoming. The relationship with the building manager, David, has always been friendly and approachable, and the building is very well maintained. We’ve really appreciated being part of the space and would happily recommend Artistic Spaces to other creatives looking for a studio.

Be very careful with this organisation , I finished my tenancy for my storage place and never received my £1000 deposit back. It’s been a continuous nightmare as they’ve not responded to my emails

Rented a space for many years before moving. Lovely staff and facility. Affordable rent too. Definitely propelled me in my Art career having the space and so grateful to this company

I’ve had a great experience with Artistic Spaces. Their communication is consistently clear and timely, which makes a huge difference. They are incredibly professional and easy to deal with regarding any building matters. Highly recommended for anyone looking for reliable management. Adi is a great addition to the team, great spirit and great communication.

I’ve had the opportunity to work closely with Artistic Spaces on several occasions and can confidently say they are highly professional, responsive and dedicated to delivering an outstanding service to tenants. Their attention to detail, combined with strong industry knowledge, makes them a very reliable choice for anyone searching for a serviced office. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a new serviced office space.

Artistic space Team are amazing! Deptford office is at very good location, they have made the building access very easy and convenient for tenants . Also the building facilities are always in a clean and good condition. They are also quick to respond to when I have questions/concerns

Artistic Spaces took over our building almost 6 months ago and we have been very happy with them! Big issues we had been raising before AS took over got sorted soon into them managing the building. Our receptionist is a great help for any queries we may have and is always a welcoming presence as you enter the building. AS consistently asks about areas that could use improvement. The only area that would improve our experience is that any smaller issues raised would be dealt with a bit quicker. Overall Artistic Spaces have been great!

Abosultey an amazing experience! Running my salon here has been a very smooth! I’ve been here for almost a year and it’s been great! My clients love it and the view is to die for! Dave and the team are always available to assist if there are any queries and honestly I love it here!

I recently rented a space from Arbeit spaces through David at Paynes wharf, he was very welcoming, professional and supportive. He answered all of my questions and made me feel comfortable, I really appreciated how approachable and fair he was throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend David to anyone looking for a professional and trustworthy experience, especially if you’re looking for a clean space and building to run your business from.

If I could rate this place 0 stars I would.

This company is the most unprofessional I’ve ever come across. They are running a very big scam and I would warn all potential creatives that are looking for a space to rent for their business to avoid at all costs.

I rented a studio at their building Standard Road in nw London. My contract with them started 1st July 2024 and I left the company end of November 2025. The communal areas were a joke, cleaning hardly done the front door was left cracked and mashed up for my whole time being there and maybe longer. Toilets were always dirty never cleaned and the communal areas smelt, these issue were raised numerous times and nothing was done. This was my main reason for leaving as well as the increase in rent and service charge which was not justified. Since leaving I have not been sent back my security deposit. They ignore all communication which includes all my emails, dms and phone calls are impossible, not sure why they even have a number. It has now been three months and still no return of my deposit which ridiculous.

It appears that this has happened to so many others which is terrible, they need to be investigated as they think it’s okay to run away with tenants deposits, thinking it will be forgotten about.

I will now be taking them to court and having them investigated, please do not waste your time with this company and spread the word !

I would strongly advise exercising caution before entering into business with this company.

Our experience began when we dealt with John Buena and his colleague, Chaz, regarding a unit at their Oxgate building.

We were offered the unit at a discounted rate on the condition that we paid a deposit within 3–4 days. Before proceeding, we requested a second viewing of the unit, which was not arranged. We also asked for updated images of the unit, but these were never provided.

During phone conversations, we were reassured that the deposit would be refundable and that images would be sent the following week. Based on these assurances, we proceeded with the deposit payment. However, once the deposit was made, communication from their side ceased. A contract was eventually sent to us, and we raised several queries regarding its contents. Despite multiple phone calls, emails, and text messages, we received no response.

Our proposed move-in date was 03/01/26, yet there was no communication or confirmation from their team. Due to the lack of clarity and unanswered concerns, we did not sign the contract.

By February, having still received no meaningful communication, we formally requested a refund of the deposit. It is important to note that no contract had been signed at this stage. On the same day as our refund request, John contacted us to state that the deposit was non-refundable under the terms of the contract. However, as mentioned, no contract had ever been signed.

Despite repeated attempts to resolve the matter amicably, we have received no substantive response to our queries, nor have we been provided with the requested images of the unit to this day.

We are now forced to escalate the issue through the other channels.

Based on our experience, we would recommend that others conduct thorough due diligence and ensure all documentation and communication are clear and complete before making any financial commitment.

I was a tenant at Warwick Works, run by Artistic Spaces, for around five years.

When I first moved in, the building was already run down, but it was usable and affordable, and it worked as a studio space. Over the years, rent increased and the service charge went up, while the condition of the building steadily got worse.

Basic maintenance was consistently neglected. The toilets and bathrooms were poorly maintained for long periods, and the shared kitchen was regularly filthy and in a very poor state. These were ongoing issues, not one off problems.

Eventually, Artistic Spaces chose to repaint the building and install a glass entrance door, seemingly to make the space look more attractive to new tenants. This made the building more visible from the street and was followed by multiple break ins. During this time, the company did nothing meaningful to address security and instead blamed tenants for the outcomes.

Communication was consistently poor. Emails often went unanswered, and it was extremely difficult to get hold of anyone when there were problems. After I had clearly informed them that I was leaving, both by email and in a phone call, I was sent a new contract the following week that would have locked me into a further three year term. This showed a clear lack of awareness of individual tenants and suggested that administration is outsourced and poorly coordinated, with little understanding of what is actually happening in the buildings.

When I eventually moved out, my departure was not acknowledged until the final week. A checkout call was completed and I was told everything was fine. Despite this, my deposit was held for around three months. Even after that period, it was not returned until I spent several more weeks chasing their accounts team, with the delay blamed on internal bureaucracy.

Throughout my time there, it felt like the focus was on opening new sites and increasing revenue rather than maintaining existing buildings or supporting tenants. At Warwick Works there were serious issues, including waste from toilets leaking into other studios, repeated break ins, and ongoing neglect of shared facilities.

Since moving to a different workspace, it has become very clear how poorly Artistic Spaces treated their tenants in comparison. Based on my experience, I would not recommend them to anyone looking for a well managed or well maintained studio space

This company are awful landlords. They are completely unresponsive to multiple emails about poor building maintenance at their Anerley Works space. We pay for maintenance services that are not rendered and then they do not have the professionalism or decency to respond to many, many emails.

- We have been asking for repairs since January 2024 to the toilets in our building (its is now December 2025) that include broken sinks, peeling and mouldy walls, broken door mechanisms.
- The toilets are never cleaned unless renters step up and clean them - for the whole building. They are filthy, bins overflowing, and toilet roll often running out.
- No suitable communal bins are provided for multiple businesses. For a time there were two big bins, no recycling, and this has been replaced with one skip that has been full and surrounded by overflow for weeks now. Emails have been sent requesting bin collections or new bins to be supplied, all ignored.

The businesses at Anerley Works are at their wits end with this company.

I was a tenant at artistic spaces for 2 years in the Paynes Wharf location, and personally I had a great and easy experience in AS.

The team were lovely with me, never had any issues with them directly and when I had a leak it was dealt with quickly and efficiently.

I truly am only leaving because I found a place that works abit better for my services but I would be more then open to renting off of them in the future and couldn’t recommend them more if it’s within your price range.

I would be abit more skeptical of the reviews as I do feel I heard a lot of complaints in my building but the issues aren’t directly AS issues. We are all adults renting the spaces so I feel like toilets and stuff should be upheld to a certain standard which in my opinion isn’t met but that’s a tenant issue in my opinion because if we left the space how we would like the space to be this wouldn’t be an issue.

Only thing I would also just recommend being mindful of is Business rates as I didn’t actually need to pay them but just be aware of this when Inquiring about a move in. But I would overall say if you ask all the relevant questions and cooperate with all the rules you will have no problems renting with artistic spaces.

For those who have said about the deposit not being returned I will have to update my review about this going forward as I have 40 business days until I should be concerned about them not returning but I will be back to give my honest feedback.

I cannot recommend how helpful Glody Blessing of Artistic Spaces has been helping me acquire a new studio space.
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 on every level.
Glody and his team have been so very professionally every step of the way.
I cannot recommend Artistic Spaces and Glody Blessing and his excellent team enough. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

We’ve had an excellent experience at Artistic Studios, and a big part of that is thanks to Glody, our building manager. He’s always available, incredibly responsive, and consistently goes above and beyond even outside of regular hours to help, reassure, and make sure everything runs smoothly.

Glody is a key reason why we chose to stay and expand into additional units. He’s been a constant source of support and a real asset to both the building and the wider Artistic Studios team.

And to top it off… he’s an Arsenal fan! It doesn’t get any better.

Highly recommended!

Fantastic Landlord – Highly Recommend!
I've had an amazing experience renting from this landlord. They're responsive, respectful, and always quick to address any issues. The property was well-maintained, and communication was always clear and professional. It's rare to find someone who genuinely cares about their tenants – I feel lucky to have had such a smooth and pleasant renting experience!

Great space in a perfect location for my business. Always helpful and excellent communication.
Keep up the good work.
