Very nice and reasonable accommodation. I like how it has a gym and social space but would be nicer if the rooms had its own washing machine as circuit laundry is always full. Staff are lovely and help a lot when needed especially when maintenance problem, it is solved very quick.

Hey, we are happy to hear you are enjoying our gym and social spaces! For health and safety reasons, we are not able to add washing machines into our rooms since this can increase the risk of floods. We do have an app where you can check availability for our washing machines to avoid any waiting times!

This is my second year staying at Princess Road East with Hello Student and I rebooked for a reason. The amenities and spaces are what you can see online but what you don't see is the people that are behind it all! The staff are wonderful and they truly go above and beyond. Tammie made me feel at home before I even moved in for the first time and I look forward to seeing Sarah in reception with a huge smile or to even have a little chat ( ily both

Thank you for reviewing our Princess Road building! It is nice to hear that you have enjoyed your 2 years stay with us!
Overall, it is still pretty good here. But sometimes the front desk is not here, which causes us to get the package in time. Also, the first floor will sometimes have an unbearable smell, which is like garbage water taste.
Hi there, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! We appreciate any and all feedback. On occasion the front desk team may be assisting other tenants who lives with us and can miss a parcel delivery. It's worth letting the team know in-person about an arriving package to increase the chances of someone being there at the time of delivery! As for your other concerns, if you would like to continue this conversation and raise any issues, if you have not already, email us at book@hellostudent.co.uk
It has been a great experience for me. It is very close to campus which is helpful. I love my room and every staff member I have spoken to have always been very nice and helpful.
Thank you so much for leaving such an amazing review. We're so happy you're having a great experience and that you love your room! Your accommodation team will be over the moon with your feedback too.
73 Princess is not just a student accommodation, it is home to me now and has been since day one, thanks to Sonia. Had I not met her, I would have felt stranded as a newcomer in this city, in this country. The viewing process was very respectful. My needs were understood and respected, my time was respected. I was allowed to move in, in no time. It has been a blessing to have come across this accommodation during my final year at Uni. Thank you Sonia once again for everything that you do for all the students here. You are always only a phone call away, which really helps. A big thank you from my family to you for allowing me a home like safe space here at Princess. I feel like a princess here, thanks to you.
Wow, thank you so much for your 5* rating and taking the time to leave a detailed review. We couldn't be happier that you feel at home, and Sonya will be so happy to hear she has played a huge part in that too. We're over the moon you're enjoying yourself and we hope you continue to love living with us :)
Have lived here for two years now, since the place first opened and each year the price has gone up but in my eyes, the place is hardly worth the price since, most things don’t work. Even when you report it to the staff, it takes weeks for them to fix the problems. The fire alarm goes off often and takes a while for someone to switch it off which is very annoying.Certain areas inside the building constantly smell like smoke or weed which is very off putting and even when you complain nothing changes which is very unfair to the other students who also live here, who don’t smoke. From Thursday to Sunday It can get very loud.Some of the residents are very disrespectful, not only to the building by littering in social spaces but also outside and not being able to dispose of their waste properly which is not only once again unfair to other student but also to the members of staff who they seem to think are there to clean up after them. The staff are very friendly & helpful.
Covid-19: No not really, sent out a few generic stay safe emails but many residents are still hosting loud gathering and fire alarm is still constantly going off.
It's a nice accommodation. Very pricey, but there aren't many options for a studio apartment that is close to UoL. Unfortunately, it's let down by a number of the residents who don't seem to have any respect for the place, and this includes occasional loud parties in the common room and the courtyard which almost always lead to rubbish being left or, in some cases, criminal damage (I went to use the laundry the next morning and the glass in a door had been smashed...). The accommodation managers don't seem to take a hard enough approach on these people - they sent an email recently that they would be upping this, but in that email they basically admitted to just giving out warnings for smoking in rooms(!) which is a serious criminal offence. I can't see why they can't get rid of the troublemakers at first offence - especially since I'd imagine the contract would allow them to still get the rent for the year.
The reception open my parcel without permission today, which really annoyed me
Everything is fine, but the reception open my parcel today, which really annoyed me.
Do not come to this accommodation. The fire alarm comes on everyday and stays on for at least two hours. Accommodation manager does not care and will take his or her time to come and turn it off
