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.
Read Alma Court Reviews
Alma Court is a great choice for students. The location is convenient, close to the university and city center, making it easy to access both classes and amenities. The rooms are modern, spacious, and well-equipped, providing a comfortable living environment. The common areas are clean and well-maintained, fostering a good sense of community among residents. Additionally, the staff are friendly and responsive to any issues or queries.
Property management is top tier, all the staff is nice and kind and they’re quickly to address your needs and concerns
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.
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.
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.
Thank you for your detailed review! We're pleased to hear that the internet and location have met your needs, and that you appreciate the well-maintained social areas and the efforts of our maintenance team. Your feedback about the noise, corridor cleanliness, and the timing of social event announcements is valuable, and we'll work on making improvements. We’ll also consider your suggestions regarding kitchen amenities and vacuum cleaner availability to enhance the convenience for our residents. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts, and we hope to make your next booking even better! Your Alma Court Residents Team

Alma Court has even more to offer now with our brand new gym, included at no extra cost We hope you have had the opportunity to attend events like our BBQ and Painting & Pizza Event. Best of luck with the rest of your studies. Many thanks, Alma Court Team
Alma court is the best place to live not only in Canterbury but the best out of all student accommodations! 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!
Thank you for taking the time to leave your 5* star review, we are thrilled that you enjoyed your stay with us at Alma Court.

We hope that you have had the chance to attend some of our events including fortnightly yoga and cupcake decorating for Mental Health Awareness. Good luck with the rest of your studies and thank you again, Alma Court Team.
Overall it has been a great experience, where I got to meet new people and interact with people living in my accommodation, however the previous gym was not good enough for the price and the rent can be quit expensive
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and provide us with feedback, it is really appreciated and your thoughts are invaluable to us. Feedback allows us to improve our offering and service. Our brand new gym is now open and is included in the price of the accomodation. We understand accomodation can be expensive as a student and we regulary review our prices and monitor these in line with the costs in the local area. We try to provide fantastic value for money at Alma Court by providing a complimentary weekly breakfast, free fortnightly yoga and monthly events such as BBQ at no extra cost. Thank you again for your feedback and best of luck with the rest of your studies, Alma Court Team.
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.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We welcome feedback as an opprotunity to improve our service and we are sorry to hear you felt that you did not experience our usual high level of service. We would love the opprotunity to make this right so please get in touch so that we can remove this charge on your account. We are usually open 9am-5:30pm but we do try to let Residents know as soon as possible if we need to amend these hours. Previously we had one full time General Manager and a part time Residence Manager. Both are now full time however we do occasionaly have meetings and training or things that come up unexpectadly which mean we have to come in earlier to address issues or stay late to fix problems before we go home. The out of hours service is there for this and for anytime between 5:30pm and 9am. Kind regards, The Residence Team

Hi, We are so glad you enjoyed the room you chose and enjoyed our accommodation. The Alma Court Residents' Team
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.
Hi, thank you for leaving us a review! We're glad to hear your enjoyed your stay with us. :)

Alma court so far has been a good experience, the building itself is clean and it has a well equipped social common room. It's very close to town and right next to the bus stop to go to both universities.
Thank you so much for leaving us a lovely review - we really appreciate it!
Amazing. I love it here and wish to stay here again next year.
Amazing! Please do speak with the Residents' Team if you're still interested! :)
This place met all my expectations. I share a silver studio with my boyfriend and I am sure it was a very good decision. The flat is so big that we have placed a second desk in it without any problems. The entire building is super safe and student-friendly.
We're so gald you're both enjoying living here! We really appreciate your kind review :) Thank you!
The Wi-Fi turns off randomly in the middle of the day or night
Good Afternoon, Thank you for your feedback. I will speak with Ask 4 who are our internet provider about this and see if we can get a resolution as they have assured us previously there were no issues! I'll do everything I can to make sure they have a look into this ASAP. Kind Regards Alma Court Accommodation Team
Very nice and warm environment. Emily and lauren always available to support. clean spaces and good facilities.

Hi, We are so glay you enjoyed your time with us. Kine Regards, The Alma Court Residents' Team
Everything about Alma Court is great. The staff and other residents are very welcoming and are really supportive. There are lots of social and study areas, where wifi is available. There are also events being hosted by the staff, which makes this accommodation special from others.
We're so pleased to hear this! Thank you for sharing your great time here at Alma Court - we really appreciate it :)
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.
Thank you so much for leaving us a lovely review - we really appreciate it!
This accommodation is very homie the only problem is the Wi-Fi company that is always under maintenance which causes disruptions other than that socially alma is great and the staff are very friendly and helpful
Thank you so much for leaving us a lovely review - we really appreciate it!
Very poor maintenance of rooms. Very rude security. WiFi cuts out near enough every week with no service in the flat. Forced to pay full rent when I havent been able to live in my own flat due to a leaking roof.
We're sorry you've had this experience. If you'd like to speak to a member of the Residents' Team please call us on 01227 949000 or email us at almacourt@thisisfresh.com.Many thanks, The Alma Court Residents' Team

Many thanks for your kind reviews! We're glad you have enjoyed your stay with us. Alma Court Residents' Team
- Lovely staff. Very understanding - Clean environment - Centralised yet quiet location. Near all the necessary shops - Friendly people Pitfalls: - WiFi works but 0 service which can be inconveniencing. But still liveable. - Wouldn’t consider the gym a gym. But it is useful I guess.

Many thanks for your kind reviews! We're glad you have enjoyed your stay with us. Alma Court Residents' Team
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
Thanks for your honest review! We're glad you have enjoyed your stay with us, and we will take your feedback into consideration! Alma Court Residents' Team
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.
Thank you so much for leaving us a lovely review - we really appreciate it!
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!
Good Afternoon, Thank you for your lovely review! We are so happy to hear you are enjoying your time here and loving the social events. We have another this Sunday so look forward to seeing you there! (Flyer and email to follow) :)
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.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're sorry the social spaces have not been available as much as we would have liked. We have been following the advice and appropriate restrictions set out by the Government to ensure all Residents and Staff are safe during the pandemic. The social spaces will be open as soon as it is safe for us to do so. Please do not hesitate to reach out to the Residents' Team for more information and updates either by popping down to reception or by emailing us at almacourt@thisisfresh.com. Many thanks, The Alma Court Residents' Team.
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
Thank you for your review. We value your feedback and will look into the issues you have raised. Please note we do have a Facebook Residents' Team for Alma Court. If you would like any more information please speak to the Residents' Team by popping down to Reception or emailing us at alamcourt@thisisfresh.com Many thanks, The Alma Court Residents' Team
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.
Thank you for your lovely review! We're glad to hear you have enjoyed your stay at Alma Court so far!
