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.

Dover Street is a really nice student accom and great value for money
Lina the beat property manager there is! She has been so helpful for these past 2 years.
Very nice accommodation, modern and great location for the price( less than 5 minutes walk to the train station). Always kept clean and property manager is very sweet. Maintenance is quick to come when there are problems and the accommodation leave treats and activities for tenants.
Very responsive staff and great accommodation, well centered in the city and perfect for a first experience as a student living alone.
Very nice accommodation, modern and great location for the price( less than 5 minutes walk to the train station). Always kept clean and property manager is very sweet. Maintenance is quick to come when there are problems and the accommodation leave treats and activities for tenants. Only con is that there are no social spaces like a common room but its not a big problem.
Great room sizes as well as great furniture and amenities in the kitchen. Super close to the train station as well as a short walk to major supermarkets. Lina is great at giving quick replies if there ever is a problem and she truly tries her best to ensure all students are having the best time as possible.
Thank you for your review. We happy to hear such a possitive feedback about property team.
There is no reception which makes it impossible for you to have your parcels delivered when you are not there plus if you are struggling with something and need help from the management, you have to chase after the manager for days because she's not on the site like ever. The corridors are always dirty and there are rats in the bin room
Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that you are upset due us not having a reception as we are small property. Property team is on the site every day and they are there to help you. Property manager is coming to the site nearly every day. Please email or call property manager and she will see you when it is needed. Housekeeper is cleaning site 4 times a week so we are sorry that you are not happy with the corridor clealiness. As we are based in the city centre there are rats on the roades so you can see them even passing Dover or York streets. Thank you for your feedback and have a great day.
Great place to stay, if you're looking for an ideal location near the city centre of Leicester. Great management from Lina, she responds to everything really quickly and doesn't fail on her promises to fix things. Really great location for both DMU & UoL. Would defo recommend others to stay here! Really spacious studio I live in as well, everything was well maintained during the summer before my arrival.
Thank you for your review. We are happy to hear such a great feedback about Property Team.
Amazing service always - Lina is so nice and friendly and always solves any problem people have.

Thank you for your review. We understand your disapointment, but because of the COVID we were not able to arrange any sociable events.
With lockdown it has been a worrying time for all, but the staff and team at Dover street apartments have gone above and beyond to lift everyone spirits. The rooms and kitchens are fully furnished and really feel like you are a home away from home. Any damage or query is quickly fixed and I really have enjoyed my stay here over the past few months.

Very nice studio apartments on ground floor. Property team make a great deal of effort to engage residents in social activities. This accommodation only has a courtyard for social space, no social rooms or anything like that.
