The oaks is a smaller and more closed off accommodation. I only had 4 to my flat. However, it feels much safer and a lot quieter than other halls

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.

What you get for the price isn't that good
When I arrived the room was not very clean so had to spend time cleaning it. Not a big enough kitchen with storage/fridges for 8/10 people. Limited social space which smells. Rooms are a decent size, bathroom is big as well. Not keen on the light sensor in bathroom. Bedroom does not have enough storage for things such as underwear or random stuff.
Nice rooms and bathrooms, kitchens generally well fitted and clean. Pricey for what you get compared to other universities but nice accommodation.
Bit too expensive for what it is but a very comfortable place to live
