Most helpful review

Although I was so excited to move to Lyon Crescent, I also had a few worries. I wondered if I’d make friends, if the place would look as nice as it did online, and if it would be kept clean and well-maintained. From the moment I arrived, all my doubts disappeared. I’ve met incredible people from different countries, and I’ve made friends I know will last a lifetime. The location is perfect, with the bus stop just a short walk away, making it easy to get to campus and explore the town. The heating works great, the rooms are spacious and the cleaner does a thorough job. It’s truly a welcoming and great place to live — absolutely worth each, and I couldn’t be happier with my choice.

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.

It’s actually pretty decent for a student accommodation. The rooms are quite big. Bigger than the videos.

It's a great place to live though I never felt the common rooms were cleaned in these 9 days.
