Most helpful review

The Vita rooms are a bit underwhelming most of all the bathrooms but they make that up with very nice social rooms and a good overall enviroment.

The upper management are the greediest and most unhelpful of any company i have ever dealt with. Receptionists are friendly. But the upper management couldnt care less about the students. It's definitely money first, tenants second. No gym, breakfast, study rooms, games room, cinema, social places all locked off because of covid. Still paying full rent. Theres a groupchat of us on instagram with vita tennants all across the country trying to get out of our agreements wanting to leave. Yet they have said they will not list anyone's room until they have sold all of the empty rooms. And yet they expect the people that cant leave to come back as nice respectful tenants lmfao It's pathetic. It's a shame because if they wasn't so greedy. Its great for a single year. BUT DO NOT SIGN AHEAD FOR ANOTHER YEAR EARLY FOR THE DISCOUNT PLEASE. THEY WONT LET YOU OUT FOR ANY REASON AND THEY WILL TWIST THE CONTRACT TO SUIT THEM.

Internet almost never works well. Sometimes at the very important point of my work, it stops! Moreover, since I have been allocated to my room, I have hundredths of silverfish! Very bad place to live in!

Internet almost does not work! There are so many insects in the room! Since I have entered the room I kill 10 silverfish every day! The worst accommodation!

Staff were mostly friendly but checking out process was terrible. Wasn't given a checklist of items to leave in room so had to use common sense - which meant I went and got rid of my used cutlery, pots and pans and kitchen ware. Considering these came new with the room I thought I was able to keep them or do whatever I wanted with them. But no. I've been given a massive £150 fee for these things including tea towels despite the building staff stating they donate the items to charity and don't pass them onto the next students in the room (seems like a lie if that fee is anything to go by) Only care about people who are sticking around too. Constantly was asked if I was rebooking my room.

Very expensive for what it is, which is essentially just one small room and a tiny bathroom. Location isn't great for uni of Southampton as you have to take the bus. They seem to spend more effort in encouraging new bookings, than they do looking after their current students. Social spaces did not have everything that was advertised.

The facilities are very well maintained, and the staff are very friendly. The rooms a very spacious and come equipped with everything you need to get started, right down to the coffee and sugar.
