Most helpful review

I moved into this accommodation September 2016. I love it here this locatoin is great being just minutes away from the main high street and the campus. This only downside is being so close to Steinbeck and Shaw you can here the base from the club at night and if your at the front the people leaving the club. Being in a block its easy to meet other people from different flats on the stairs and the SU bar. The wifi speed is good however the download speed is slow unless you pay extra. The rooms are a good size and are fairly modern however it is REALLY warm once you get inside your flat. I'm on the third floor so it is really warm.

All the Answers You Need About Student Accommodation

What tenancy length do I need?

Some students choose to stay during the academic year, whilst others – particularly international students – require a tenancy that covers the entire year. You can also find student accommodation that is available for one or two terms, classified as a “short stay” on our search filters.

Should I stay in catered student accommodation?

This is totally up to you! Catered accommodation means you will be served meals at set times in a dining hall, and you’ll likely have access to fewer kitchen facilities than if you were to stay in self-catered accommodation.

What is a guarantor and do I need one?

A guarantor is a person who signs a contract to agree to pay your rent if you are unable to. Most university accommodation requires a guarantor, and this applies to both domestic and international students.

Will I need to pay a deposit on student accommodation?

Most likely, yes, you’ll need to pay a deposit. This will be refunded at the end of your stay as long as there is no damage to the room or property.

What bills will my rent include?

If you are staying in university-run accommodation or private halls, your rent should include any utilities such as electricity, gas, water, and internet. Students are not required to pay council tax, however you may need to fill in an exemption form so make sure you check with your local council.

What is purpose-built student accommodation?

Purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) are residential buildings designed for students. They are often located close to campus, boast modern facilities, include all bills, and often have staff on site to assist residents.

Will my student accommodation be furnished?

Student accommodation is typically fully furnished. Your room should include at least a bed, clothes storage, desk and chair. You’ll likely need to bring things such as bedding and kitchen utensils, but we have a full list here of everything you’ll need.

The accommodation is next to a pub and you can hear loud music every single night. Please we are students, we need to work on our assignment! . Stay away from here unless you 're keen to fight the noise when writing a paper! The sofa in the kitchen is dirty and broken.

Do not come here unless you like to be harassed by security, and fined by house keeping for the smallest of issues and treated like a child. In my experience staying at St.Georges centre has not been nice at all, although the rooms are a nice size they did not come clean or refurbished, my best advice is to stay away from this accommodation.

Love my experience at St George's but for the money we're spending you'd expect at least there to be cleaners and a common room area for the whole accommodation.
