Most helpful review

It’s very convenient. It takes 7 mins to city campus and around 10 minutes to city center. My room type is extra large en-suite two dio. It’s very big especially bathroom. My bed is comfortable (size 3/4) .There are TV in your bedroom but you need to pay for the license and large table with blackboard and overhead shelves. I have a large kitchen and living area outside my room and share with only 1 flatmate. My kitchen include combi/oven small stove , bucket ,bin , 1 small table with 2 chairs and sofa. Staffs are really friendly and helpful. I have laundry room on site and it’s free to use which is practical for me

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.

Hi there, I need a replacement tennant for an accommodation for SHU students at Brittain Street Accommodation. It is newly furnished and very modern. The room is a classic ensuite with a shared kitchen with only ONE OTHER PERSON, a 'twodio'.It is only a £123 a week with a £250 deposit. I need a female student, preferably in their first year. ust a 5 minute walk away from One Brittain Street is Sheffield Hallam University City Campus. This student accommodation is a modern complex offering our newly built Twodios. These are studio rooms with en suite bathrooms but with a shared kitchen with only one other person. This is a standard room and fully furnished. Book your room now via the Sheffield Hallam University website. Your room is fully furnished with a 3/4 bed, bedside drawers, desk, chair, shelves, wardrobe and noticeboard. There is also a TV mounted on the wall. Kitchens come equipped with: microwave, fridge/freezer and kettle. There is a laundry on site. We use a top-up card
