How do you rate Broadgate Park?

Most helpful review

I’m am glad that I’ve chosen Broadgate park as the first choice when I’m applying for accommodation. The place is so nice and makes me feel like home. I am an exchange student, so I was worried about everything before I came. But now this is the most satisfied choice I’ve made. The flat is nice and everything is systematic. I’ve meet 5 nice flatmates thanks Broadgate park as they really consider my request for all female flatmates. There’s a lot more but in short I am very happy with my accommodation

Q
How secure is 'Lower Courts'? It is separated from the main site by Broadgate and reviews suggest smaller kitchens, older buildings and rooms. What are security arrangements?

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.

Overall good experience, the only issue has been that the pay terminal for circuit laundry was broken for at least 2 weeks, after reporting it to the reception it wasn’t fixed after being told it would be.

I think the rooms are overpriced when considering the size of the rooms. I'm currently in an ensuite room, and I thought the prices this year were high and next year are higher as well, which just seems unattainable for some people.

Broadgate park is in a great location only 12 min walk to university campus and is out of the city centre which makes it more relaxed environment.

Good location to uni. I like the independence of having your own kitchen. Beeston has everything you could need in walking distance as well.

Does the job for a first year student. If you have any issues they are usually quickly resolved. The wifi crashes every now and then as well as it randomly flickering on and off but usually quite quick. Kitchen is quite small for 6 people at once making it hard to socialise in there but it is doable. But overall, what you’d expect for this type of accom.
