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.

Very comfortable space that located in a beautiful district
Thank you for your review.
It was the best neighbourhood, near university and quite and peaceful location
Thank you for your review. We are so glad you enjoyed your time here with us.
I had a room that was recently refurbished so it was clean and nice in some ways. Although the storage is ridiculous. No drawers in the wardrobe, only two hooks on the wall in the room (supposed to be enough for everything like towels, jackets, bags etc). The water heaters in the building makes constant noise, very disturbing when you try to study. Every door is a fire door so there is a LOT of doors slamming all the time. The shower cabin is not suitable for tall people, im 176 cm and I hardly fit in there. You are not allowed to have anything on the walls or even over door hangers. I don't recommend this accommodation. The standard is just to low.
Too expensive for the box that the room is. Too depressing and old atmosphere, It is ridiculous to have a bathub with no shower head. It is not hygenic to take baths without being able to wash off the dirty water.
