The building is pretty & bedrooms are lovely - big and old fashioned, I even had a balcony on my room! Quite damp and mouldy though - I had heaps of silverfish in my room. The rest of the flats - kitchen and living area (if you can even call it that) - is horrible. They're tiny and uncomfortable, impossible to socialise in. I think this is why the social scene is so off, it was hard to hang out at all in the building so difficult to make friends. You're in flats of 4 so pretty small groups. The building is also tiny so you're only in a bubble of like 60 people. The vibe was altogether just quite weird.

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.

Small communal area, made up with by huge bedrooms. Fantastic social experience - small, so they whole halls know one another. Cleaning nill - all they do is the bins. But it's not biggie. Incredibly cheap, nice quiet location but not too far from uni and headingley. Def worth what you pay.

Fantastically sized rooms with balconies, North Hill Court was the catalyst behind the process of me meeting some of my best friends and having a great year at uni. The social areas aren't that large, but we'd always hang out in one of our spacious rooms anyway
