Q
ıs there a en-suite room?
By member935710 On 29th January 19
Hello there,
I’m wondering if you are still interested in an En-Suite room here at Gibson Street Student Roost?
If you are still interested, then I would book as soon as possible or risk missing out due to the building being fully booked for the 19/20 academic year. Which inevitably it will be very soon.
Here is how our En-Suites are set up:

Ask a new question about Gibson Street
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.

I lived in an Ensuite in Gibson Street this year, it was very enjoyable, the rooms had a great view and the kitchen was well equipped.

GS is just 5 mins walk from UofG and enjoys a beautiful view of Kelvingrove Park. We have dishwasher and range hood which many of other accomodations don't have. If you prefer a convenient stay near UofG and do not care about social space, then GS is the best choice.
Hi there, Thank you for your review and you are correct in terms of our location as well as te views of Kelvingrove Park. We are a 2 minute walk from Glasgow University gym/union/School of education, a 3 minute walk to the main library and a 5 minute walk from the main campus itself.

10 Gibson Street is in a great location for quick access to the University of Glasgow and I’ve had no local noise complaints. The common room is quite lovely and often quiet if you need to study. Social events advertised as part of the package were removed. The staff have been excellent and will tend to any issues you have quickly for the most part. But my personal experience has come with a lot of issues. On arrival, the flat had not been cleaned from the prior tenants and various utilities were broken for example, fridge shelving, freezer drawers, hoovers, and hob. It took two months to stop frequent Wi-Fi disconnections and restore ethernet access, requiring several hours of phone-call & email troubleshooting with the provider. It is perfectly possible that I am an unlucky outlier. For my tenancy, the accommodation was competitively priced for its location at the time.
Hi there, Thank you for your review and yes our location is only a five minute walk to the main campus of the University of Glasgow and a three minute walk to the library too. We are happy you think the common room and study room are lovely. We apologise if we have not always given you service you have expected.

It locates near the university and it is very convenient to go to library. If you need help, they are very glad to help you, although it is not always a satisfactory result. The only thing that is not very well is that their hand sanitizer beside the lift is always empty. It is a bit worrying during this special period.

The accommodation is located a great location. You can get a glimpses of River Kelvin and Kelvingrove park from some of the rooms here. And the best part is, it's just 5 mins away from UofG. The staff is so so helpful, friendly and attentive. Everything that you need is given to you and I've never had to ask twice. Yes, it is a little pricey but if you look at the location it's totally worth it. I'm sure if we were not in the middle of a pandemic, I would have been able to enjoy this place even more. Thank you so much Brian, Anna, Carole, Viv, Mark and everyone else for being so patient and understanding.

Hi there, Thank you for your review and we are sorry to hear you don't think the kitchens arre big enough for 6 people.

Everything is great! I just wish the building had the gym room as they advertised! Also, it'll be great if the price would be lower...
Thank you for your review and we are happy you think everything is great. We are a smaller building with only 93 rooms and limited space which means we are unfortunately unable to provide a gym I'm afraid. I can only apologise about a gym being advertised. Could you let us know where this was advertised please? As we definitely do not advertise a gym on our main website at www.studentroost.co.uk or here at www.studentcrowd.com. It would be great if the price was a litte lower but this helps us try to maintain our high level of customer service that we try to provide to you.

Though the price is a little high, but honestly, it’s totally worth it. The reception team is very nice and warm. During the quarantine, they are also willing to help.

•Perfect location, really close to the University of Glasgow and many shops on the road •Friendly and helpful staff •Nice common and study room, but rather small and no other spaces like gym etc •Overpriced

The location is really convenient because the University of Glasgow is only five minutes far from here. The building is nice and the staff is helpful. The common areas are modern and clean, however, we don't have more facilities(e.g. gym or games). I am disappointed because we don't have a cleaning service although there was in our contrast. Furthermore, the drying machines are totally useless as we have to dry our clothes three times in order to be dry, which means more money! There are a lot of problems and I think it is absolutely overpriced.
Hi there, Thank you for your review and yes our location is very well suited to anyone studying at Glasgow University which one of our main selling points. I can only apologise about the cleaning services. This was something that was completely taken out of our hands that we unfortunately are unable to offer. We are happy you think the staff are helpful and the building is nice. We try our best to make sure while staying with us we give you the best service we can. The drying machines should hopefully be fixed very shortly. A new extractor fan needs to be to be attached to the ducting system to help improve drying. We are a smaller building with only 93 rooms and limited space which means we are unfortunately unable to provide a gym etc I'm afraid. If there is anything else you wish to discuss please contact us at gibson.street@studentroost.co.uk Thank you again and have a brilliant day. - Brian
Good location, a five minute walk from the University of Glasgow library. Friendly stuff who try to be helpful. Before booking I was promised cleaning service for shared areas such as kitchen, which however never happened. We have to clean by ourselves. The common room is big and has a tv. The common areas are nice. The washing machines are okay but the drying machines do not dry the clothes properly at all. All in all my experience is a positive one in terms of social experience, location and the room itself, but I think it's a little overpriced since some facilities and services could be better.

I feel comfortable to live here. The staffs here are very nice, friendly and responsible. Besides, it is very close to the school of education, the library and the main building. Especially, I seems to be safe at night because there are some shops opening very late.
