They provide dirty and damaged facilities. If you request to fix something then they tell you to fix it yourself. At the end of the term, they will charge you to pay for fixes and cleaning that you are not responsible for.

Most appalling staff management I have ever come across. Letting students into your room, they do not care about your mental welfare. I had a lot of belongings stolen by other members of the household and the response was. There's nothing they can do. The lost miserable living experience. The only thing that is nice is the modern room. That's it. No social events planned other than come and get some sweets and free pizza before it's gone. No care or compassion. I wouldn't waste your money.

The accommodation attracts by its look as it is all new and the rooms are quite nice as well as social spaces, however, the staff is extremely unhelpful and it sometimes feels even little unsafe as the security just minds their own business most of the time. No social activities, we had one only on Christmas. Wouldnt recommend to a friend.

Lonely modern building. Loads of social spaces and study spaces, feels really homely. WiFi is not the best, drops out frequently

Capital house is exactly what I look for in student accommodation. It's close enough to my university and the high street. It is also nicely kept by competent cleaners and the administrators and security are all switched on and polite. My only real Complaint is the combination microwave oven that we get as It's panel is a bit hard to use. Thankfully though there is a an excellently equipped room with a good kitchen and dining facilities that can be booked out for get togethers and the like.

Good quality for money overall. The double beds are really nice and the ensuite showers are strong. Cleaning service is not included which feels like it should be for the amount you pay, but there are services available (if willing). Due to Covid, the use of social spaces wasn’t allowed but they seem good. The gym has quite basic equipment, useful if you want a little workout. Great location to the town centre and Solent University. Overall, I was happy with my choice to live here but would only recommend once restrictions are over as there is a lot you pay for that couldn’t be used.

I live in a premium studio and my friend lives in the en-suite room. Both our rooms are spacious and there is under bed storage and the floors are wooden. I found carpet rooms a lot harder to keep clean! The shower cubical is a decent size and the shower pressure is amazing. Compared to other student accommodation I have seen, they utilise the space in the bathroom well, so I can keep my skincare and makeup on the shelf which is useful. The social area is fun with table tennis and a Poole table. The study area is comfortable, good lighting and large. It is great to have a great study area as you can take small breaks and get snacks easily from your room. When you are in the library, you are unable to do this. The staff from the security, receptionist and cleaners are all friendly and kind. Collecting parcels are easy and stored safely. A big bonus is the location! There is a park close by and I would recommend Cafe Thrive as a place to eat if you live here.

Wouldn’t recommend, your promised a lot of things in terms of a cinema room which has been broken the whole year study room which has been closed the whole year but your still paying for these facilities. staff don’t care and security are rude and aggressive. For the amount your paying it’s not worth it better off staying at Vita Student Accommodation better value for money and can use ALL the facilities that You pay for!

Very poor management and staff do not respect with international students. It was hard to contact with staff through e-mail because they do not reply the thing that I would like to ask. And they normally do not take any response to help me.

This place does not know how to run a STUDENT accommodation. No1, the only good thing about the accommodation is how nice the rooms are and I can’t stress this enough, that is it. The management here isn’t great at all, they work against you rather than with you. They also came up with a £500 payment that was supposed to be paid, without any knowledge of it until 4 days before moving in, and stated they wouldn’t give me the keys until I had paid this. Even though I paid the deposit 6 months earlier and could’ve paid this £500 then when I had the money. They also advertised this accommodations stating “no hidden fees” so if your planning to move here make sure you have money for these unannounced payments. Payments for accommodation fall in line 2-3 weeks before you get your student loans so they can give out fines for late repayments to maximise profit (as most of the rooms are not occupied).
