Most helpful review

Surrey is expensive anyway. Location on campus is excellent, near the town, uni centre and right next to beautiful lake. Can be quite noisy with the train track about 10 metres away and buses running other side, but you get used to the noise quickly.

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.

Room filthy on arrival. Placed here because of disability and had to spend hours before unpacking cleaning the walls, bed, bathroom etc which impacted my stress and pain levels. Mains power thrown out every day for a week by faulty oven. Shower was corroded beyond belief by scale. Cleaner sent out after photo evidence provided, lime scale on the shower head and dial was so severe it stripped the chrome when it was removed. Neighbours constantly smoked weed which affected my breathing because there are gaps under dorm room doors (fire doors, mind) large enough to fit your hand beneath. Security responded well to reports but ultimately nothing changed. Walls and doors extremely thin and all noise passes through, you can't tap a spoon to a bowl in privacy the noise cancelling is that poor. Metal steps outside make lots of noise when stamped up and down in early hours of the morning by drunk idiots. Nice location by lake and conveniently adjacent to doctors, close to train station.

Expensive and close to railway but I cannot state how good the location is - the blocks are divided with stairwells which means you get to know the others flats well although there aren't any sofas (just try and make your kitchens as friendly as possible). Relatively well furnished and modern.

You get what you pay for. Not the best but definitely not the worst. You can make your home very homely if you like, otherwise it can be quite lonesome.

Rooms are a good size and the bathrooms were surprisingly nice, but you can hear everything that goes on in rooms next door. The windows are good at cancelling the noise of the trains when they're shut, but if you're hot and you open the window then all you can hear is the trains. The kitchen is really really small, and it's impossible to cook if there's more than 2 of you cooking at the same time. Also, aside from taking the recycling, what do the cleaners actually do...?

Overall, the halls are really nice, the rooms are a great size and it's definitely liveable. The kitchens are quite old fashioned and small if you wanted to have a large group of people round but you can squeeze and its still more than fine. However, within a block there are six flats, each with individual front door and doorbell so they are all quite separated - because of this I found you had to make more of an effort to mingle with others, during freshers this can be quite tough. It took me a while to meet people as it doesn't feel the natural thing to do to ring somebody's bell and hope for the best of somebody who answers.
