The Cube exceeded my expectations in every aspect. The common room, with its ample space and tasteful decor, became a hub for socializing and relaxation. It's where connections with fellow residents were effortlessly forged. The on-site facilities, including a well-equipped laundry and secure bike storage, showcased the attention to detail in meeting residents' needs. Moreover, the provision of guest vehicle parking not only eased transportation concerns but also highlighted the accommodation's commitment to visitor convenience. The seamless blend of functionality and aesthetics at The Cube made my stay not just comfortable but truly enjoyable. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a top-notch living experience.

Everyday is a great day here at The Cube. Everyone is sociable and friendly. The receptionist will always be willing to listen to your problems and help with any issues you may have within the accommodation. Having a great place to focus on your studies is a must to succeed and I’m glad I have chosen The Cube to be that place.

Living at The Cube is so lovely, it has a very cosy vibe. Andy and Roger are very friendly, they sort out inquires and issues so quickly. The staff here put together a welcome party, there was pizza, so many fun games and it was a nice time to socialise. The rooms are spacious, the kitchen is nice has a sofa and TV in there too, all the facilities are lovely, so many fun games in the common room. There's a bus stop conveniently located in front of the accommodation, you get 50 free day bus passes. 10-15 walk from campus to get the shuttle bus. Londis and Subway in front of The Cube too, just across the road. Definitely recommend staying here.

Been living here for 2 years now. I have had a great experience since moving in. From the spacious and well designed rooms to the fun common room where ive had many positive social experiences, the cube has felt like a home away from home. Special shoutout to Andy and Roger for accomodating me in the most hospitable way possible. Highly recommend for any future Loughborough students.

My stay at the Cube was great. The building is new and well maintained. The rooms receive a lot of natural light and are quite spacious. This is one of the most affordable accommodations in Loughborough. If you are a STEM student, you're better off picking this accommodation as you're closest to that part of campus. There is a bus stop right outside the premises and the Cube gives you free bus passes. you're also not too far from a londis across the road and a spar(10 min walk away).

Affordable rooms with ample space, for both the communal kitchen and private rooms. Conveniently located near the Engineering block of the university. I mostly order groceries online so the location is not an issue. My only gripe is that the ensuite bathroom sink taps are the old UK types - Boiling hot, or freezing cold.

My experience at The Cube has been nothing short of exceptional. From its convenient location near the university to the well-furnished and spacious rooms, it truly feels like a home away from home. The safety measures in place, including access control and CCTV, provide a reassuring environment. The management and staff have been incredibly supportive, promptly addressing any concerns and fostering a sense of community through well-organized events. Despite occasional maintenance issues, the responsive team ensures a smooth living experience. The Cube offers excellent value for money with its inclusive rent structure. Overall, I highly recommend The Cube for its outstanding facilities, friendly atmosphere, and its role in making my student journey memorable and comfortable.

Overall incredible accommodation. In terms of the building and rooms itself, it is perfect. The size of the rooms are great for the price, better than any in Loughborough. The only issues are the wifi/electricals have stopped working for a night in my second month of stay, the fan room sometimes comes on during the night and is loud. So far I am thoroughly enjoying my stay.

A Vibrant Student Experience at The Cube Accommodation - Kudos to Andy and Roger for Outstanding Events My recent stay at The Cube Accommodation in Loughborough was nothing short of amazing, and it wasn't only because of the comfy rooms and handy location; it was also because of the lively and engaging atmosphere provided by the diligent managers, Andy and Roger. The Cube, as a student residence, goes above and above to develop a feeling of community and pleasure. What distinguishes it is Andy and Roger's constant effort to create events and festivals that make the living experience absolutely unique. Andy and Roger's event calendar is wide and inclusive, catering to the many interests of the student inhabitants. There's always something going on, whether it's a movie night, a gaming tournament, or a festival celebration. To summarise, The Cube is more than simply a place to stay; it's a centre of student life, and Andy and Roger are the architects of its success.

The student accommodation impresses with its modern design and thoughtful amenities. The living spaces are not only aesthetically pleasing but also functionally well-equipped, with comfortable furnishings and ample storage. The kitchen area is a standout feature, boasting modern appliances and sufficient space for communal cooking and dining. What sets this accommodation apart is the attention to communal areas. The common spaces are strategically designed to facilitate both social interaction and focused study. Whether it's the communal lounge with comfortable seating or the study rooms equipped with the latest technology, every space is tailored to cater to the diverse needs of students. The management's commitment to security is evident through well-implemented access control measures and 24/7 surveillance. This contributes significantly to a sense of safety and peace of mind among residents. I am having nice time over here.

I chose this accommodation for my first year at uni for the price and the quality I saw on the pictures. The truth is, it felt better in real life. Everything was great in my first year in terms of the accommodation, and that’s why I chose to stay here for my 2nd year. The location is perfect for those who want to try and minimise temptations, and want a sense of peace. The rooms are much better than most on-campus halls, even those which are double the price.

I just wanted to share my awesome experience living in this student accommodation. First off, the rooms are super clean and bright, making it a great spot to both study and relax. Each room has its own bathroom and kitchen, which is a huge plus. It's really handy to have everything in one spot, and not have to worry about sharing these spaces. The kitchen is well-equipped with an oven, hob, microwave, and all the cleaning stuff you need. It's perfect for cooking up a meal or just heating up some snacks. Accommodation managers, Mr. Andy and Mr. Roger. They are always around to help out and are super friendly. It's nice to know that if you ever have a question or need assistance, they're there to lend a hand. It really makes the place feel more like home. All in all, it's a great spot for students. Comfortable, convenient, and managed by some really great folks.

Title: "Exceptional Living at The Cube: A Student's Perspective" Review: The Cube stands out as a stellar student accommodation, blending comfort with convenience. Every room is a private oasis, complete with individual bathrooms and climate control. Safety is a priority, with smoke alarms in each room. The kitchen facilities are top-notch, featuring modern appliances like ovens, microwaves, and fridges. Beyond the basics, The Cube offers an engaging game room filled with various games and books, alongside a daily coffee and tea service. The highlight of The Cube is the manager, Andy Stafford. His friendly, enthusiastic approach to problem-solving and resident satisfaction sets him apart. In my ten years of hostel living, Andy is the best I've encountered. For excellent value, The Cube is unbeatable. My advice is to book early; spots fill up fast, and many regret missing out.

The cube is great for STEM students due to it being the closest student accommodation to the west park of campus. The place is tidy, well kept and maintained by the staff. The staff are always eager to help with any issues and have replaced a mattress that was not comfortable within the same week and also my desk chair. The cycle storage is very big. There's also a games room with a pool table that's free to use which is a big bonus. The only thing is that it's far from town but the staff have got this covered with the complimentary bus tickets. This is by far the best value for money accomodation if you prioritise being close to your lectures as opposed to being in the middle of the town. All in all great experience

The experience has been amazing at The Cube. Andy and Roger are some of the best blokes I've met. Issues are resolved almost immediately by them. Spacious rooms when compared to other accomodations. Since it is at one edge of the town, bus passes provided by them are really handy. Overall a great experience. Laundry could've been cheaper though.

The on site team at the Cube is absolutely second to none, they really go above and beyond to solve any issues promptly and an added bonus is that parcels are taken in and securely stored for you which gives peace of mind. Management also makes a lot of effort to arrange activities to make friends at The Cube, there’s always things going on which definitely adds a real community feel. The rooms are extremely spacious compared to a lot of halls, some of my friends rooms look like broom cupboards compared to mine- and the added bonus of an en suite is just great. The kitchen spaces are also really nice airy places to spend time and socialise with flatmates. The main con is that it’s extremely far from art related buildings, there is a bus service but often it doesn’t show up which means a 15 minute walk to get the campus shuttle- however this is not the Cube’s fault by any means, just something to bear in mind. Overall, extremely worth the money and has a great homely feel to it :))

Every problem raised is immediately solved by the great staff working here. Great bonding activities and fun stuff is planned by accommodation manager every week.

It's fairly cheap accommodation with on-site staff who resolve issues quickly. Though it should be noted that travel times to and from town can be longer than usual and if you are on the opposite side of campus for politics-related courses travel times can be frustrating so a bike may be necessary. Any issue that we found was resolved quickly and being far from town does mean that any havoc from clubs/pubs is not going to reach you. It's cheap, it's got onsite staff and it's calm as it's not near the town centre so you can avoid some of the noise.

The cube is a great value for money student accomodation, with other loughborough accomodations being much more expensive. It is not far from university campus, less than 5 minutes on a bike, with even the far side of campus reachable within 10 minutes on a bike also. Residents are provided with bus passes which further reduces living costs and makes going into town and shopping very easy. The social space is quite small however it is sufficient with a pool table and other games, Residents at the cube mostly keep to themselves which does limit social experience however the staff try to put on many little events to try to get some engagement. There has been issues with water supply, however rooms were booked at a nearby hotel to allow residents to shower, and large bottles of water were provided for resisdents for other needs.

I would recommend living at The Cube as it is great value for money. The management team are very friendly and deal with any issues quickly. The rooms are very spacious and an en-suite is also offered. The walk to university is only 15 minutes. As it is not close to the town centre, free bus tickets are offered with the bus stop right outside The Cube.

The property manager, Andy is an absolute gem! So unbelievably helpful and kind and organises fun socials and is always down for a chat for however long you want! Roger the maintenance man is also lovely. The kitchen is incredibly spacious with sofas and a dining table which was a massive upgrade from my old accommodation last year as I had a tiny kitchen with no where to sit! The rooms are spacious and the shower is a tad small but is a standard size for student accommodation so can't complain. The view from the windows are lovely especially on the top floor, I love sitting on my windowsill and watching the birds. Only annoying things about this accommodation was some water issues (Andy did Everything he could to help those with no water) and some boy racers on the road at night. However that was out of the cubes hands and with the water company for the water issues and local police for the car nuisance. Everything that they can sort and fix they do quickly and always with a smile!

It's a well looked after place that's the perfect location for engineering students. It's is a bit out of town, but you get free bus trip vouchers which is great. I've really enjoyed my time here.

Lovely place to live, friendly and welcoming staff. The facilities are great and the accommodation has a great social life and events. The value for money is amazing, the rooms are big and kitchens are not only spacious but amazing for socialising with flat mates. The manager Andy is great and helpful. It is a short walk from the university but it’s a manageable walk and easy to follow. Although it might be a quite a long walk to town, free bus passes are given and then it’s only 10 minutes. 100% recommend

Overall very good accommodation, the staff are friendly and the smaller size in comparison to other student accommodations is a huge positive. The cost of the accommodation also makes this a significantly option to university halls; the location is a downside but the easy access to busses is very helpful, although almost everything is still within walking distance.

Fantastic management, you can be sure the staff will respond to any issues as soon as possible. With Covid restrictions lifting, more activities are being held that give all residents the opportunity to get involved and socialise. The location is also extremely convenient, being only about a 10-15 minute walk from the Loughborough University campus. The rooms are cosy and very accommodating for any student wishing for a great study space. Would highly recommend it.

My experience has been much more positive than negative... Rooms are comfortable with enough storage space for a student. Pleasant comfy space and common area for the flatmate or communal area. Sufficiently warm, hardly had to use the radiator... during hot days unfortunately lack of ventilation... Staff is really kind and helpful... have had no issues whatsoever! My university buildings are a 15min walk away so no issues... Town centre and amenities are a bit far but luckily The Cube provides with limited number of free bus passes which makes it easier for us... Overall I´m happy with my choice!

Friendly staffs. They've done very well managing the whole accommodation, such as handling complaints either from students or the neighborhood, getting repairs done in time, helping deal with parcels and packages, and so forth. The accommodation is around 15mins walking away from the campus, especially for architecture and engineering students who will have lectures and studios majorly in West Park. Although it takes 20mins bus to get to Loughborough town center, it still won't bother too much. The accommodation provides free bus passes of day savers, and the bus stop is just next to the accommodation. In total, I reckon the Cube is a wonderful choice for students.

Stayed at The Cube now for 4 years total. The rooms are great value for money, high quality furnishings and lots of space. Rooms are on par with the best on campus, but a fraction of the price. Great access to engineering side of campus, 15 min walk. Anything on the other side of campus you may want to bike. The staff are really friendly and accomodating and generally easy to get on with. I am an ASO which means I have a car parking space, but if not then you will struggle with a car. Only other issues I have had are that the temperature of some areas of the building can get quite hot/quite cold if the weather has been consistently so. I have also been allocated rooms in male-only flats for my entire stay, which has provided some issues with cleanliness of communal areas. All in all, it's absolutely worth the money, would definitely recommend to any 2nd years or higher, especially serious students because it's quiet here.

The social experience hasn't been the same cause of covid but the management team are absolutely lovely. The location can be a bit frustrating, particularly if you want to go to the gym or a late night walk. However, we do get complimentary bus passes which help a lot and the rooms and so worth it. You get a lot for what you pay for. Even the smallest rooms are nicely sized and bigger than most,accomodation rooms.

Very cosy rooms with private toilets and showers. The building is located in a quiet area near Loughborough University campus which is very convenient. Noise is never an issue except for a few instances by some residents, but issues are always quickly resolved by management. Great value for money with friendly staff, I highly recommend it. The Cube is an ideal place for studying in addition to taking part in social activities.

Very good value for money, location is a 15 minute walk to the west campus entry so it's especially convenient for engineering students, however this means that most students here are probably engineers and so probably have their hands full with uni work. WiFi has good speed but often disconnects (for me), but Ethernet is excellent.

The Cube is the only accommodation in Loughborough I've lived in, so I have nothing to compare it to, but my experience here has been enjoyable. The staff at The Cube are really friendly and responsive to any queries. The only downside is the distance from the high street, but thankfully we get 50 bus passes a year so that's not a concern (and it means I've been cooking a lot more). I will add, the nearby residential areas are a great place to go for a run which is something I was looking for. Overall, the room is decent and cozy and the staff are helpful. I've already booked in for next year.

The Cube is excellent value for money, with spacious rooms and kitchens. The communal areas are also a great place for spending your free time with your flatmates. The location is quite far from the town but with free bus passes, this isn't a massive issue. The best thing by far is the property management and staff. They're friendly and always happy to help should you have any issues.

The Cube offers student accommodation in Loughborough at a significantly cheaper price than that of university halls, whilst also being more appealing to many. It offers a quiet and cost-efficient way of university life - not too noisy and with fairly large rooms for each student. While the atmosphere and location may not be suited to a lot of parties or getting to campus, the bus tickets provided (as well as the bus stop outside) allow for an easy means of travel to be able to get around and make plans with friends. The on-site staff are friendly and often plan out social events within the accommodation. The ability to collect parcels from reception is also extremely helpful and helps to avoid missing deliveries. The laundry facilities are kept within the main building (unlike within university halls), which makes it significantly easier and less awkward to wash your clothes - despite being slightly more expensive. Overall I'd highly recommend the cube based on my time here.

Great place to stay. The only downside is the location which is also the reason why it is so cheap compared to other accommodation in town. Staff are friendly and if you need help they will be than happy to help. I gave social experience a three, only because of the fact that there was Covid-19 and so it was difficult to host events, however, they tried their best to host and do events while following Govt guidelines.

Close to campus (about 12 minute walk from Holywell Gym and the STEM lab). Friendly staff who are always happy to help. Relatively spacious rooms and great sized kitchen with ample space for everyone in the flat. Would recommend to anyone looking for accommodation off campus- I booked as I didn’t get a self catered room on campus and in the end I am happy I didn’t as the Cube is great :)

The cube is a wonderful and exciting place to work and live. I'm an international student that has been here for one whole year and I have gotten all the support I need from the accommodation staff. For those who do engineering its a 10 to 15 min walk to all your building on campus which makes its ideal for those 9ams in the morning, shopping in town is made easy with the FREE bus passes to town centre.
