Most helpful review

Staff were super unhelpful (took over a month to replace a broken fridge), cleaning was good and regular at the start of the year but they only came twice in second semester. SECURITY IS TERRIBLE, building door was never locked overnight and because it doesn't have actual flats you could just walk in and end up in any kitchen or outside anyone's bedroom without having to go through a single locked door. The view is really nice if you get a room on the right side of the building.

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.

WiFi can be slow and too many checks at strange times of the night by security. Other than that a good place to live and close to the uni campus and shops. Re firb is taking place so each room will be fresh for the next academic year

Definitely not worth the money for what you get when for a tiny bit more you could stay in one of the new builds, with bigger, brighter rooms or for a lot less in one of the older builds similar to ASH.

Ensuite and social aspect was good, but very poor standards in terms of decor and facilities. Over-priced.

Very expensive for what you get but I would never recommend not going into halls.
