Everything is good. But one problem is that the fortune is important when choosing an ensuite because you do know whether you will meet roommates who have some bad habits like making noise or make a mess in the kitchen.

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.

It’s a good place to be in. It’s about 15 minutes away from an Asda superstore, the city centre and everything is super walkable from my accommodation. The bus stop is next to the accommodation so anything that was a little further was still super easy to go to.

I think there are a lot of issues that needs to be taken care of in an urgent manner, but the authority seems to ignore it because various cultural aspects are involved and then there is huge sensitivity with respect to how we treat humans here so that is the cause of concern because common sense and common practises for maintaining hygiene is equally important And specially in spaces, where accommodation is provided for students

Internet is very good, I never had any problem with it. The location is also good, it might just be noisy because of the road depending on which side you are but the windows are pretty good. I'm studying at the university of Kent and it is not a problem to walk there (35 minutes) and you can walk through mainly footpath which is nice. The corridors could be cleaned more often but the social areas are well cleaned. The staff is okay, the maintenance guy is nice. I never went to any social event because they began only to be advertised during the second term. A kettle in the shared kitchen would have been nice as well as the availability of vacuum cleaners outside of reception hours and on weekends.

The management cannot be faulted at all, they have been the best team that I have dealt with, so supportive, so friendly, so knowledgeable. The new gym is a nice touch as well! The free breakfast Mondays and smoothie Wednesdays is lovely too!

My experience of Alma court has not been good. I have raised several issues including, a flatmate who regularly smokes weed, and twice I asked for my battery to be changed in my door lock, both of which resulted in zero action taking place. I also once had a security guard walk in my room at 3am which was previously locked, when I spoke to a member of staff about this the nex day I was told "he obviously went into the wrong room" and nothing more. I was also disappointed to discover that there are only two reception staff here Monday-Friday 9-5pm, and they regularly leave early for a multitude of reasons with very short notice. Any issues outside of these hours either have to wait, or you have to call out for a security guard. My door malfunctioned and locked itself on a Friday night, so I had to phone for someone to come and unlock it. I later discovered I had been charged £42 for this despite it not being my fault.

It has been an amazing experience to stay in Alma Court. The rooms are very good size, reception staff are very friendly and helpful. Social areas are clean and the building as a whole has an amazing decoration and atmosphere. It would be great if it had a parking space. The only isssue was we told staff our kitchen radiator and it still isn’t fixed, but hey, it’s end of march now. Apart from that, clean, good size and friendly environment.

If you're looking for a place to stay in Canterbury, this is the place to go. It's close to CCCU and Canterbury center, and the bus and train stations are only a 5-10 minutes walk away. Most importantly, the accommodation is really secure, and receptionists (Emily and Lauren) are both amazing and regularly organizing social events that make us feel like we aren't alone at all. I strongly advise you to relocate to Alma Court.

Alma Court is a very nice place where to live as a student. Rooms (studios) have plenty of space, just the bathroom is a bit too small if you are sharing the studio but that’s fine. I love living here

Great place to stay, me and my girlfriend stayed for our first year as it’s one of very few places offering dual occupancy. Social areas and facilities are all great. No parking was the only issue.

It is an amazing place if you are looking for an accommodation in Canterbury. Emily and Lauren, they are both amazing and regularly host fun social events so that the residents meet with each other as we are not on campus. I would reccommend Alma Court and could assure you that the team is extremely helpful. Definitely consider it!

Couldn’t review the social aspect adequately the main problem is paying the price we do for the social spaces however we can’t use them. The staff are sweet and help a lot as I have poor mental health and have always been understanding.

Management and people are helpful, friendly and get to know you Social Spaces and gyms are great I love the pre recorded classes to access on Access to weights and exercise bikes The gym would be even better if a running machine, cross trainer and boxing bag was added Arrival could be improved by providing instructions of how to use oven, heater etc A residence WhatsApp chat could be used to meet other people Mold on windows taken ages to be sorted

It was expensive for what I ended up experiencing. While the accommodation is very well done I’ve had nothing but problems. My wifi regularly turns itself off and the one time it didn’t turn back on it took over a week for them to get someone in, which was a week of uni work missed. The oven in my kitchen blew a fuse and turned all the lights and half the electrical items in that flat off and the out of hours team didn’t deem this an emergency when they wouldn’t turn back on, this happened on a Friday night so I had to argue to get someone out on the weekend as they planned to wait till Monday at the earliest. One of my windows has a small air leak so my room was always cold through the winter and instead of getting someone to look at the windows they just gave me a plug in heater which only made a small difference. The flat is also covered in paint stains from when they were decorating. The walls also seem very thin so it’s easy to hear people banging about in the flats near yours.

The pictures on the website don’t do it justice. The rooms are also incredible for storage/space. Environment of the accommodation as a whole is very relaxed which made settling in easy.
