would not recommend anyone to stay here! they advertise a cinema room but in the 3 years I lived here the projector never worked despite multiple maintenance requests, and for 2 of those three years the room was locked. They advertise a common room with a PS4 but there is no PS4, the airhokey table has no puck, the table tennis table is broken, the pool table costs 50p per game. Maintenance issues take way way way too long to solve, the lift was out of service for about a month the first year I was here, and I was left with no toilet seat for over 2 months despite numerous complaints about this health hazard, another tenant had no working TV in theor room for almost 4 months despite the fact it's advertised, the multi-gym machine hasn't worked in 3 years, the tredmil has also been broken for over 1 year yet the gym is still advertised. The WiFi is down all the time.the fire alarms go off constantly (except when they brake and Xenia ignore it) I have more to say but can't fit it in

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.

The fire alarm goes off randomly throughout the day almost weekly, I put a freedom of infro request into the fire department and they have spent over £16,000 in 2022 on callouts just to Sovereign House alone! Sometimes it goes off for hours and no one comes to turn it off, sometimes you are left standing outside in the rain at 2am for an hour and i would not recommend anyone else put themselves through this
The whole lift area in the ground floor stinks of feet and is never cleaned, the gym machines don't work, the common room is very poor and run down, and the staff don't care about anything or fix any issues ever, reception is only open for a few hours a day while you're at uni
