Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to express my interest in renting accommodation for short term period of 2 months, from 20.06. until 25.8. During this period I will be in Glasgow to do the internship. Currently I am a third year student at University of Belgrade, Serbia, where I am studying Software Engineering.
If there is possibility, I would like to hear more! :)
Thank you in advance,
Kind r

MyPad Paisley, Is Located AT The One Of The Best Place. One Can Daily Explore A Lot Many Options Here.
Thank you for your review. It's true, MyPad is located opposite Pailey Train Station allowing you to easily get to Glasgow in 10 minutes or around Scotland easily.
There is poor communication from staff, a kind of subtle discrimination against international students. Some of the staff are unsympathetic to what students are going through they only are about rent Date.
I moved out of My Pad Paisley one month ago and I still haven't received my deposit back. My contract was taken over by another student, who was also charged for the same room. There is no clarity on when am I gpoing to receive my money back! I spoke with Citizen Advice Bureau, as I don't know what else I can do.

Arrogant staff who have no sense of attention and are lazy at work. I paid my deposit first of £150 from India and paid my first rent payment on the day of arrival and next working day. ASKED them if there's any procedures to do when I'm leaving a month early, she said NO. No information at all about anything until when I m packing she says there's a maintanence charge so I'll get back only £100. After multiple emails after shifting they came up saying, "There's £400 still left to pay for the last month" and also says, "The £150 u paid was booking not deposit, so we don't owe you anything" I'm like wth? She ends up saying, "You didn't pay doesn't mean you don't owe us £400". The worst attitude of someone working as a STAFF. I'll post a review everywhere I can. Worst ACCOMODATION.
All social areas were constantly shut including the study room which I was paying extra for. There was cockroach infestation while people lived there and they would shut the kitchen for a couple hours at a time so therefore wasn’t able to eat for a couple hours. Had my washing basket stolen and my laundry pods which I reported and was told that they knew who it was cause of ctv but couldn’t do anything.Had items of my washing stolen out of the washing machine; my belt and my blazer and despite cctv no further action was taken. The bedroom door had a gap at the bottom so any conversation you had in your room could be heard outside in the hall. The circuit laundry machine wasn’t working, I was lied to and told that “on Tuesdays they do a online maintenance fix” the next day however it still wasn’t working but when I phoned the circuit company to chase it up they said the manager at the time had lied to me and that they were broken and should have been reported.
Do not consider living in mypad! The place has nothing to offer. The heater was broken for 1 month and when we went to the reception the “manager” told us that it is not her responsibility because she told the company to come and fix the boilers. We were cold and we were paying for “all the bills included” but actually they had no bills. The first floor is abandoned and very dirty, there are people’s clothes and stuff there for over a year everything is disgusting. The refuse chutes are full and students complain. Let’s not talk about the cleaning! The maids did not come for 2 weeks and sharing with 10 people is not that easy without maids. Anyway this place is unacceptable and i prefer paying 100 pounds more and staying in a better environment!
I have been a resident in this property for over a year and found it absolutely worth it to be staying here. I'll gladly recommend this student accommodation.
Shameful management, noisy resident, kitchen cleaning is not done even if you pay the price for; neighbors smoke drugs, the manager is aware of it but we have to call the police ourselves and not sanction ist taken, repetitive fire alarm at any hours of the day or the night. The manager is not often available: she arrives later and leave earlier than her normal schedule. The WiFi is poor while the students have to follow courses remotely. My shower is broken since the beginning of the year but the manager did not seem to do something to change it except offer to change the room... Something that I refused as the room she offered me had a worse view... As a reminder, I paid for an en-suite room club, so highest room price, that's not for having a view on the roofs of the commercial center and the car park...
