Great location and value for money. Maintenance is up to date and never had a problem with wifi. Usually people at the reception to help you if you have any queries.

Student Review: 2.7 /5

The best and the worst accommodation at the same time. I had good flatmates and the location is absolutely the best out of all city accom, however there are so many on going pest issues with rats and silverfish. The staff are also the absolute worst (hopeless) if I'm completely honest - even the cleaner and security team are better. They also started construction work to the exterior of the building 3 months into moving in with no prior warning! This was awful, so loud and disruptive - again the staff/building manager had nothing much to say nor offer any compensation for this.

Didn’t have an oven for 6 months, it took weeks of pestering to get it fixed or any compensation. In addition I had multiple mice and various rodentia living in the kitchen, along with silverfish and worst of all a great deal of black mould. Would not recommend, steer clear.

Our flat only has one fridge between 5 people which is not big enough. Other flats have two. We have asked for another one but the problem has not been fixed and most likely ignored. The ongoing construction work outside wakes me up and there is no privacy screen on my window where construction men walk past everyday. Could this construction not have waited until the summer when everyone has moved out? But idk maybe this wasn’t possible. Lifts are constantly going out of order with long delays to fix. Social area is depressingly small compared to the other uni accommodations and there’s only 3 washing machines to the whole building. Location is the only good thing about this place. But I’d recommend moving into Marketgate or Nelson and Drake.

my experience in Blenheim has been good i’m happy to be in the city centre, staff are helpful but often maintenance takes a very long time, and wi-fi often cuts out, the taps run extremely hots so be careful when washing up, i’ve had mice and it took up to two weeks for maintenance to sort it out but other than that i have enjoyed my stay here, people are nice and their are often socials going on.

best part is the location as right next to bus stop and the centre. bad that they’re doing construction on the building for the rest of the year as it feels invasive and covers the windows.

it does the job, had some issues with the lifts breaking and not being fixed, ongoing construction is a bit disruptive but will conclude in 2024. regular social events are held but don't cater to dietary requirements.

The location is very good with Tesco location right beside the accommodation. Social places and the washer rooms are decent given the accomodation prices. However, sometimes we notice mouses here and there but the stuff try to solve it as soon as we let them know so it's not a big problem. Overall, decent accommodation quality and worth the money.

Blenheim is okay except for the mouse and silverfish infestations. As well as this the fridge in my flat leaks, oven doesn’t shut properly, wifi hardly works and the heating in my flat doesn’t switch on. Other than that it’s 10/10

Constant lifts down, washing machines broken and not fixed (also expensive and not enough for building), pests in kitchen (mice) - you report it and they don’t get anything done about it to extent we’ve had mice in kitchen for the full term and we aren’t only ones in building. Staff friendly enough. There’s building works constantly and loud noise from road, very disruptive.

The service here is like watching someone iron a creased shirt with the iron switched off. Horizontal, haphazard and clearly in need of some serious administration reorganisation. They give you unnecessary parking fines when you go to move in. Even if a person was staying in the car and not obstructing any other vehicle entrance or road. (A personal note) Any interaction with the reception staff is frankly futile as the left hand never knows that the right hand is doing, on top of their blasé attitude to dealing with complaints. However, this is the least I expected from a company called ‘Unite Students’ as they’re clearly united in being inept and inadequate.
