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 was a private accommodation.

I would not reccommend this hall, or at least not to postgrads. The bedrooms and bathrooms are okay, but we've had massive issues with our fuses (which was not resolved until many months after we first alerted about the issue), the WiFi tends so come and go, there are no big spaces for residents to get together, only the "common room" in the flat (which looks like a casting suite for a porn). You pay for laundry, given that you don't have massive issues with the app or machines (like a lot of people have) and there's always some reason for the accommodation to send someone into your room (contractor, someone for some reason changing a clean, functioning shower head or to check whatever). I would now have moved in had I known it would be like this. I had some issues with my room that needed resolving, but I got no help. I would urge postgrad especially to look for private accommodation as you'd 100% get more value for your money. It is in no way worth £700 + a month.
The only real problem is the sheer amount of false fire alarms but thats because the 1st years are having parties 24/7. Otherwise its great for transport due to close by bus stations. Not sure about parking
