Most helpful review

Massively overpriced, shower pressure is terrible and the water temperature just changes randomly, company that runs the place are very controlling and invasive e.g not allowed more than one person to stay over at any one time and they have to be approved by the workers AND checked in and checked out as if you’re not the one paying the rent, and that’s just one example.

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.

Ok so the bedroom aspect itself is fine it’s as good as y can expect for student living. Ie. Could be worse. Needs a good DEEP clean and dust and def a fresh lick of paint. But the bathrooms are f*****g grim. Had to pull at least 6 handfuls of other people’s hair out of the shower drain as it just would not empty the water out. Kinda thing that should at least be looked at before allowing new students to live there. A bit disgusting.

Very poor value for money considering there is other accommodation that offers more for less money, as well as nicer and larger rooms and living spaces.

Honestly one of the best student accommodations linked to the University. Its so convenient in regards to closeness of everything. The rooms are perfect size and are comfortable. The social spaces are so nice, with table tennis, a pool table and cinema area. It is pricey, but compared to some other ones that are within the proximity, it's a decent price. The staff are so lovely and welcoming.Would definitely recommend staying here for the first year as it's a great accommodation to meet people.

Only 4 to a flat which makes it not very social but soon get to know your floor. The flats are lovely and in such a top location. Loved staying there!
