Everything is really good but had a couple of issues. One being the lift broke down with me and 2 friends in it and no one knew what to do really. Other problem was the flat I lived in had some issues and the security either never came or would take hours to come. Other than them issue I think sanctuary students are really good and I have even booked again for next year.

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.

Moor Lane Halls is one of the best student accommodations in Preston. It is very close to the University (less than 5 minutes walk). The rooms are equipped with ultra-modern facilities. I will highly recommend for any student that wants a cool place to stay while in school.
Hi There, Thank you for your lovely review! We hope you are enjoying your stay! :)
I have enjoyed my time at this accommodation it’s student friendly and they have some good supermarkets in the area
Hi There, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! :)
I pay £99/week for an en-suite with a small double and think that it’s really good value for money. The bathroom is a decent size / big shower, as well as lots of storage in the room including under the bed. The kitchen and living room are huge with plenty of seating for everyone! The social spaces are very adequate but the recycling facilities aren’t brilliant. However, in saying that, I am 90% sure I’ll be staying there next year also for my 3rd year.
Hi There, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we appreciate your lovely comments and feedback! We hope you do decide to live with us again :)
Very good for the price, location and staff. It isn't the 5 star hotels of university accommodation but it does more than suffice and I would thoroughly recommend.
Hi There, thank you for leaving us a review, we appreciate your feedback!
Great experience so far and I enjoy using the gym just wish the kitchen was cleaner. On arrival it would be beneficial to provide students with items that are necessary
Hi There, We are happy to hear you are enjoying living with us! If you are experiencing issues with cleanliness, feel free to contact the management team on 0151 224 0375, we are happy to help.
I have been able to settle in well thanks to the warm welcome i received and the receptionists are approachable and friendly to talk to.
Hi There, We are so happy to hear your lovely comments and hope you are enjoying living with us! :)
Everything about the accommodation was exceptional. It was clean, stylish with excellent service. Room was good and great value for money and service was attentive and efficient. Room itself was well equipped and comfortable. The maintenance services are also very quick.
Hi There, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! We appreciate your lovely comments and hope you enjoyed living with us! :)
The staff are friendly, i’ve been having issues with flatmates however and they’re not particularly helpful in solving the issues. the room is nice but the shower has a few issues

It’s a good affordable place for students. The place is clean, rooms are spacious enough and a friendly community.
Hi There, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! We hope you are enjoying your stay with us.
Satisfied, easily accessible, good location
Hi There! Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! :)
Always have good deals for students struggling for money, so it's my second time in their standard accommodation. Nice to have onsite laundry, common room and gym, which is rare for halls of this price. The bedrooms are very roomy with a double bed, and there's a separate shared shower and toilet room which makes things much easier. My main concern is that the bathroom has no proper ventilation so mould grows quickly and is a pain to remove. Once you can get used to climbing the stairs (if you're on the top floor like me), it's mostly well worth the money when you can get the price reduced (I paid £65 a week this year).
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! We are sorry to hear you are experiencing difficulties with the ventilation within the bathrooms, feel free to call the maintenance team at Moor Lane on 07546558555, they can investigate this issue for you.
Some of these benefits include laundry and cleaning services, more enhanced security features, access to transportation, free Wi-Fi access, a gym that is on-site, along with many other things.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! :)
I have enjoyed my time at sanctuary students , the staff and security are so lovely and helpful with everything. Would definitely recommend this accommodation to future students.
Hi There, thank you for your lovely review! We hope you are enjoying living with us!
Elevators been broken for weeks
Hi There, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We appreciate that the lift being broken is inconvenient. Rest assured, the team at Moor Lane are doing all we can to get this issue resolved as quickly as possible. Thank you for your patience and understanding thus far.
A Very good and healthy living space, would recommend.
Hi There, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! We appreciate your lovely comments!
The reception staff are genuinely lovely & really helpful!
Hi There, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! We appreciate your lovely comments:)
A pigeon came into my room while I was away and defecated on my desk. Pretty noisy at night from nearby accom. Room was a bit of a shoebox. Other than that, very friendly people at reception and always happy to help
Hi, thank you for your feedback.
The accomodation was cleaned regularly and any maintenance issues were resolved promptly. The common room could have benefited from being open 24/7 given that their was on-site security nearby at all times. The Wi-Fi connection could be spotty for periods of time, but any known issues (such as maintenance) were given enough warning beforehand. Staff were pleasant and efficient at their jobs.
Hi, Thank you for your review and feedback.
It's been a great time living at Moor Lane, the staff have been so nice and accomodating 😊
Hi There, The team are so happy to hear you have enjoyed your stay with us! :)
Best student accomodations.very friendly behavior with everyone
Hi There, thank you for your lovely review! We hope you have enjoyed your stay with us so far.
Moor lane halls has been an amazing place to live and I have chosen to live there again next year, recommending it to all my friends. The office staff are always very welcoming and inviting and are happy to help with any issues or queries. The maintenance crew come over to the flat as soon as you call them to look over the problem and even fix it then and there if they can, even with larger issues they will keep us updated and let us know when they will sort it out for us. The rooms are not as claustrophobic as some accommodations and have lovely grey and white furniture. The kitchen is spacious and have never had a problem storing all my kitchen stuff and food, it has a massive area for food prep and a tv area with couches. The pool table is a great way to speak to new people and also enjoy a game with flat mates for free, always a good way to break the ice if you all don’t know eachother. The gym is also a great bonus, free and no walking distance.
Hi There! Thank you so much for your lovely review. We are happy to hear you have chosen to live with us again next year! Don't forget, if you refer a friend make sure you fill in the refer a friend form before they apply! Get yourself and your friend a cheeky £100 voucher :)
Great experience from Sanctuary Students Accommodation Preston. Staff are very friendly and resolve complaints quickly. Also they provide free gym, games and party. Value for money.
Hi There, Thank you so much for your lovely comments! We have more parties planned for this year too, we hope to see you there! :)
The best student accommodation I have witnessed. Already feels like my second home.
Hi! We are so happy to hear you feel at home living with us! Thank you for your kind review.
I have stayed here the whole time I’ve been at university and I cannot recommend it enough! From the moment I arrived i had a positive experience. The staff were friendly and helpful with everything. Everything was easy to book and arrange, they even allowed me to arrive early. Any issues I have had with flat mates they have been there to help with. When I have had hard times with my course or flat mates they have supported me. The accommodation is standard but for the price you can’t moan at all. Still the cheapest accommodation in Preston and so close to all local amenities. I’ve loved staying here and will miss the staff and friends I’ve made whilst living here.
Hi There, A big thankyou from the team for sharing your experience living with us! We appreciate your lovely comments :)
Loved the 3 years I’ve stayed here for. Absolutely amazing staff and are always there to help with whatever you need. It’s so close to everything you need as a student and I’m definitely going to miss living at Moor Lane. I’ve made amazing friends living here and if I’ve ever had a problem with maintenance or anything it’s always fixed as soon as they can.
Hi There, We are happy to hear that you have enjoyed your stay with us! Thank you for your lovely comments!
It's home away from home. The best place to live and enjoy your student life. Hands down.
Hi, thank you for your lovely review! The Moor Lane team are happy you have had a great time with us!
