Q&A


Q
I like your rooms very much and they are very beautiful and excellently decorated. Both in terms of coloring and in terms of a student enjoying it and doing work related to his studies in it. My question is that I myself I love nature very much and I enjoy nature very much. Can I go out of the dormitory at any hour of the day when I want to go out and enjoy the nature and the surrounding scenery,

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.

£125 a week for a studio room, cheaper by £25 a week than my double en suit at Waterside last year so saving money for a larger and better (for me) room. Room is equipped with everything you need e.g., kitchen appliances, plenty of plug sockets, ethernet ports, lots of storage and a decently spacious bathroom. However, the bathroom is a little prison like with a fixed shower head and a curtain that constantly needs to be moved so it doesn't block the drain, had issues with my bathroom not being fully clean when I moved in and a weird smell that I couldn't seem to get rid of until recently, about a month after moving in. Location is a lot quieter than Waterside though you can often hear some music and general noise, nothing too bad and traffic noise not major. Bus pass to the main campus is given to all residents here so you can get the 19 bus anywhere along the route for free Mon-Fri, takes around 30 mins to get to Waterside and the last one leaves W-side at 20:35, which really sucks.

I didn't have a very good experience in my halls. Probably because I didn't have nice flatmates. I had lots of food stolen... sealed food and the whole thing would be gone. There was 1 common room for the whole Hall. It was far away and just a room with a TV and chairs. The wifi was intermittent but they do provide an Ethernet cable and socket (although mine was broken when I moved in). The cleaners weren't nice. They would come in and complain about us (I was in the room in the kitchen so I heard everything, they used to wake me up). They wouldn't clean unless it was already clean (I used to clean it the night before they came but I gave up on that as I was the only one who did it and the cleaners were still horrible!). They eventually stopped coming to clean our flat completely. The management team are ok, but my sink was blocked when I moved in and I complained in person several times, when I left it was yet to be unblocked. It's alright value for money, and close to lectures

Going into my third year you realise how convienant living in halls was, waking up an hour and a half before a lecture really not ideal... Although there are still some major problems with halls firstly the cleaners, nobody tells you that the cleaners are a TOP UP SERVICE and they will only clean if you flat is clean to start with as wierd as that sounds so don't expect to leave bundles of mess and clear it up coupled with that we had some awfully rude cleaner who we fell out with on multiple occasions!. Price! For me atleast I paid £115 per week for halls that have not been improved for Year, for cooking equipment that was still from the university's college days! The lack of basic cleaning equipment that was provided like a hoover!!! "yes you are not supplied with a hoover! The biggest problem I had is the ease of access resident life and that had entering your flat and room with out your say so which was complete b******. Overall though very average experience

Very good. Rooms are small for price. Internet cuts out sometimes. Common room shuts sometimes. But socialising opportunities are good
