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 really good. It probably would just need more social gathering or events

Been here a short while and it’s been really great and peaceful. The staff have been very very helpful so far. A little too quiet though. Looking forward to more social experiences.

You get what you expect as a student accommodation. The management team is quick whenever you have issues with the flat. The accommodation frequently opens social events for people to gather which is positive. It would be better if they could replace the recycling area and add more laundry machines.

Stay has been okay but lacks cleanliness especially when I moved in, my room and kitchen both was dirty from previous tenants. Very slow to take action as well.

The Best thing about living in Raglan House were the Staff. The staff are really lovely, I lived when the staff changed. And I can say that both the New and the Old staff are lovely. The problem I had were some of the flatmates were very problematic and not enough action was taken against them and not quickly. Otherwise, Raglan is a good place for the price and the location is decent. Just hope, you get good flatmates.

Very friendly staff, very helpful. Good price that takes into consideration the area it's in. Security is on the desk every night. Within a few minutes walk of the Uni/Hub building. Not the nicest area but the building is fenced off and secure.

Very disappointed, I had to sleep in the kitchen because I was not able to enter my room, I asked for compensation, the manager promise me this but never replied back to my email again, I contacted customer service they were very unhelpful, I was waiting for the compensation so I did not pay the rent for 2 weeks and my credit got marked because of this, I am now denied credit from any company, I am currently discussing this with Ombudsman, hopefully you will get fined for this.

Raglan House is great my issues lie with the accommodation cleanliness and maintenance, we have broken fridge freezers that leak that have been reported a broken oven also reported, mould in bathrooms and overall condition of cleanliness within properties is low before moving in, I do love raglan house but I currently have a kitchen that due to the cleanliness of it when moving in and not having been seen to since, also expected to clean rubbish of prior tenants. All in all every accommodation within raglan needs cleaning teams to full internally clean all parts of the property before the coming semester.

What is there to say about Raglan house? To put it simply, over all crap. The floor in the kitchen isnt straight and has a trip hazard, the hobs are awful, damaged counters and poor facilities to cook. That isnt even the worst part. The Hoover stank of vomit, a replacement was given and that went missing, logged a maintenance request for a new one and now having to pay. As for staffing, you're more likely to see Brexit happen than the staff actually turning up. You're supposed to sign in guests but the book is never out, infact if your guest is here enough they assume they live here too. Price is far from worth it, I'd rather give my student finance to a researching unicorns foundation at this point because itd be put to better use. A cardboard box outside Kasbah would be better than this

The service is awful. Locked out of my room in the middle of the day because the ‘batteries ran out’ of my room door. Ricdiclous. Waiting for over an hour to get someone to open my door even though it’s 16:00 on a Thursday and meant to be someone on reception until 18:00. Absolute joke I recommend anywhere else in Coventry.

Disappointed. Only thing good about it was meeting my current housemates. They don't deal with complaints very well and when complaints made, took money off deposit even though they were made aware of the issues.
