The location is a little bit far away from the uni. The most worse thing is the reception staff trespassed into my room, under the guise of checking it, which let me feel really uncomfortable and I have received no explanation for any wrongdoing at the moment.

I used to think this accommodation was good value for money however things absolutely do not get fixed quick enough. The lift has been broken for nearly 4 months If not already more and I live on the 10th floor! I have been told that last year the same happened to the other side of the building lift had been broken for 3 months. I am forced to drag my luggage up and down when I go home and make a return. Have to keep shopping minimal because it’s too heavy to carry! It is beyond me how it can take this long to fix. I am tired!

This accommodation does not deserve a single star. I have lived in many university accommodations during my studies but this is without a doubt THE WORST ONE. It's a real shame how the residence works, the staff is rude, the inspections to your apartment are constant, and the WORST thing of all are the fire alarms. They can be at 2 am and the alarm goes off, or at 8 am, again at noon, again at night... and so on. It's a nightmare. And even after all the torment we have to live among constant alarms no matter what time of day/night it is, right now we just had a fire drill. (YES SURE, BECAUSE WE BARELY HAVE this situation EVERY SINGLE DAY) And a staff member yelled at us for not leaving the building in less than 10 minutes... HOW IN THIS WORLD you want us to leave in 10 minutes when this alarm is continuously sounding we are getting used to live with it, if we have to go down every time we hear it we would have to live on the street. DONT BOOK A ROOM HERE, LIVING HERE IS A NIGHTMARE..

It's an ok place, but for some reason landlord doesn't fix things that break, for example, the lift breaks and people who live on ninth floor have to walk up 6 flights of stairs for 3 months. They don't repair the lift immediately, don't know why, probably to save money for themselves. Really annoying given that if exam season is approaching

It's a relatively nice and clean place but they never reply to my emails about deposit of £250 after I left them. I have sent them 5 emails trying to ask for my deposit and they never reply

IQ Birmingham is an accommodation that no UoB students have heard of. No one applies to it and when you don't get any of your choses you are given IQ. It's far away from UoB and doesn't give you the university halls experience you would receive on the Vale. This being said, however, it's great value for ensuite accommodation- much less than you'd pay for ensuite on the vale. It is clean and well maintained. Any issues are always quickly resolved! It's near town and broad street which is a benefit and it's also close to the station. The rooms are good size with loads of storage! I've actually loved my flat and my room but the commute is a shame!!
