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.
Read St Davids Reviews
St Davids is close to the city centre and good for a smaller budget, the rooms are spacious enough for one with good storage also. Being just a 5 minute walk from 3 major supermarkets and 10 minutes from swansea’s nightlife, it definitely accommodates the student lifestyle. The transport is okay with buses every hour outside the accommodation however these can sometimes be unreliable and the closest stop for campus buses is a 10 minute walk minimum which is okay if you’re able and happy. It’s relatively well kept however the outside spaces aren’t the cleanest, not expecting them to be sparkling but they could definitely be better.
Hi there, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. It's great to know that you're loving our location! We really appreciate the feedback on our outside spaces, we’ll be sure to keep this in mind when further improving our accommodation for current and future residents. Many thanks – Student Roost
Good average service with people at the front desk willing to help 24/7.
Hi there, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We really appreciate the feedback! – Student Roost
It has been a great experience living in Student Roost. Whenever there was a problem, it will be quickly rectified (for example, the microwave had broken, and was quickly replaced). I also love the amount of social events they hold too which does help socialising. I’ve met nice people through the therapy dogs event which was really sociable because everyone loves dogs and love that they hold a film night every week. The value for money is excellent for the location and the size of the rooms, which have plenty of storage. I have recommended this accommodation to future university students as I am a student ambassador as it is value for money and close by to all universities in Swansea with plenty of transport available. I recommend 10/10

Hands down, best choice to stay at while you’re studying in Swansea. With a bus stop right outside the building, the train station 5 mins away and most importantly, Parc Tawe the gym just across the road, they’ve got it all covered. The reception is always available, with a friendly staff that are always more than happy to help you with whatever you need and just are so fun to talk to. People from various countries are resident here and there shouldn’t be a problem with you making friends. Every month, they’ve got a list of really fun events to attend, pizza parties, Halloween, Christmas, Eid, and my personal favourite therapy dogs that just make your whole day! I’m a current resident here and I recommend you choose St David’s to be your first priority to make your Swansea experience if not the best, but certainly fabulous!

Hi there, thanks for this wonderful feedback! We're so pleased you've found a sense of home and community at St Davids with our residents and our team members. - Student Roost
Bit of a rip off and if you dislike it and want to leave half way through the year or even before you move in you can't. The pricing of the different room types is a joke we got a more expensive room than last year and it was much worse and not maintained at all , lights not working, exposed wires , smelly , and disgusting, after this we asked if we could not move in and leave and they didn't let us . The WiFi is pretty good though.

While on the pricier side, the facilities and rooms more than make up for it. The wi-fi included in the rooms are fast and great for streaming and gaming (also studying). The social spaces are a great place to be with multiple rooms dedicated to studying, gaming, watching tv, etc. St David’s is also located within a 5 minute walk to the retail park which has all of the shops you could ever need.
We're so pleased that you love our social spaces and facilities here at St Davids! As a gamer, I think it's crucial you have access to best internet so I'm so pleased to hear you're enjoying this! Thank you for a fab review. :)

Although I don’t live here I come here often so see my friends and hang out in the nice cinema room or games room. It’s currently exam season and use the study room often just to read and chill.The best part is when I get hungry there are so many vending machines to use form. I’m terms of experience I’d have to give this one a 10 and don’t let me get into how easy it is to make friends and just socially have fun here 🤩🤩🤩
What a fabulous review! We're so pleased to hear that you love visiting your friends here at St Davids and using the fab spaces we have here! :)
It’s in a great location. There’s many places you can socialise. There’s a bus stop right I don’t that takes you to bay and back. There’s cleaners that come in at 8 to clean the lifts and public areas. The night staff are lovely and very helpful. If you have an maintenance issues, they’ll sort it out for you as soon as they can.
Thank you for such a fab review! I'll pass on your praise to all the teams you've mentioned. :)
Overall, a good stay. The only major issues I've had here are with flatmates, so really no fault on the behalf of Student Roost. The Bronze Ensuite is a pretty spacious room and for all the other amenities included (Gym, common spaces, study room, on-site washing machines & dryers) is good value for money. The on-site washing machines aren't included in your rent, you do have to download an app to pay for your washing, but I personally don't find an issue with this.
Thank you so much for your fab review about St Davids! :) We're really pleased to hear you love all of the spaces available to you.
Thankyou so much for sorting the problems I was facing in my room and the kitchen. It’s such big help .
Thank you for your fab review! I'm happy to hear we were able to resolve any isses you were facing. :)
Decent accommodation, really abysmal social experience, especially being a first-year, so kind of regret it. Hardly any social events to meet other people, no freshers event to even get to know people at the start of the year and just seems a bit of a dead place. This place has no soul. The courtyard needs refurbing, just looks depressing. 10/10 for location and parcel service though.
Thank you for the 4 star review! We're sorry to hear that you didn't have a fab start to the year, we definitely take this feedback on board and already this year we've held two Movie Mondays, Brunches, Arts & Crafts and a mixing event. We're also looking forward to our Halloween Party, Therapy Dogs visit for World Mental Health day and all the other great events we have planned for the year. :)
It’s been a pleasure staying at St David’s. The location is great and almost everything you need is easily accessible by foot. The staff here are friendly, competent and are always ready to help, should you need anything or just fancy a chat. The social spaces are great and are always clean and tidy :)
Thank you for such a lovely 5 star review! We always say we're more than a room and I'm so glad to see you got to experience this. :) I'll definitely pass on your kind words to the team.
It good student accommodation......................................
Thank you for your review! :)
Excellent place to stay as a student, bus stop at door step. All Grocery stores within 1-2 miles. Easy access to both campuses
Thank you for the fab 5 Star Review! We're so happy to hear you had a great time at St Davids and enjoyed all the benefits! :)
Comparing the location my my university and social life, this is an amazing place to live
Want to thank Tracey and Connell today for going out of their way and helping me get to my interview. My phone had died and Connell was so helpful in printing off the directions to the company. Tracey was equally as amazing in explaining the Roost's cancellation policy due to suspension. Thanks for going out of your way guys and getting me the job!
Nice place, with amazing view and common places that provide an amazing and friendly environment
Great service and atmosphere. Very kind staffs. Free Bus pass is the best part!

Lovely staff, friendly environment. Clean rooms and good facilities. Brilliant location, centre of town so only a 10 minute walk from a good nights out and the high street. Bus stop located right outside which goes campus to campus. En-suite facilities are good and any problems you report are sorted straight away.

Thank you for your reccommendation! Watch this sapce for our Refer A Friend Scheme for next year! :)
Best location, room spacious and the service is more than reliable
Thank you for your fab review. :)
Great staff and perfect location just few minutes away from the city centre. And also, you can access to markets and malls within walking distance. The St David’s got many features like gym, cinema room, play room and many more which makes me feel very comfortable and makes me feel much like home.
We're so happy to hear that you feel at home at St Davids and have been able to enjoy our fab social spaces. We hope we continue making your Swansea experience the best! :)
Enjoyed my stay thoroughly! Would suggest maybe a cleaning service/checkup fortnightly and reduced laundry costs.
We're so glad that you enjoyed your time with us! We have taken your feedback on board and we do have a cleaning service now! :)
Enjoyed my stay! Would recommend it to anyone else
We're so glad that you enjoyed your time with us! Thank you so much for your reccommendation. :)
It's a lovely place with lots of friendly people. With a large, welcoming team that is always willing to assist you with all of your needs. When I arrived on my first day, they showed us around the building which has a comfort place to socialize with your friends. They even make a Monday Movie Night in the mini cinema where they encourage all students to watch movies while enjoying the stay. Feelin like doing some workouts? They even do have gym facilities with complete equipment. St Davids Student Roost is a best place for you to start your student life in Swansea.
Thank you so much for such a fabulous review! We're so happy that you enjoyed your time with us and we could give you such a good time! :)
I have thoroughly enjoyed my past year at Roost due to the comfortable spaces and facilities. I also found that the members of staff have been very understanding, helpful and reassuring when I experienced some difficulties this year.
Thank you for your kind words, I'll definitely pass this on to the team! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your time with us at St David's and that we've been able to help you through difficult times. :)
My stay here for a term was amazing! I was able to make new friends and learn alot of new things. Not to mention the amazing wifi in the room and student lounge too
We're so glad to hear we could facilitate you making new friends and having an amazing time! Thank you so much for your fabulous review. :)
Really enjoyed my stay here. Had no problems at all. Everything was clean and modern.
We're so happy you enjoyed your time with us! :) Thank you for your lovely review.
The place is amazing and a 5 min walk to lidls, with bus stops to both campuses right outside. It is also only a 10min walk from Wind Street as well as the city centre. Events are always going on in Roost itself, and the staff are always happy to help.
Honestly one of the best private student accommodations in Swansea. It has really nice common areas along with a really nice gym.
Good experience. Getting to know a lot of friends from different countries .people are very nice and stuff are really good
A good and enjoyable experience
Thank you so much for your review, we're so happy to hear you've enjoyed your time with us. :)
Michelle is lovely always asking how my days going :)
That's so kind, thank you for your review. I'm sure she'll be super appreciative. :)
A good over all experience with best in class facilities
Thank you so much for your review! We're so happy that you've enjoyed the fabulous spaces at St Davids! :)
The staff here are amazing but Hayden and Connell have helped me so many times, no matter what I have asked them. Also the events they put on are great.
Staff? Absolutely amazing! Building? Awesome! Flats? Comfy as heck!
Really good accomodation ! Everything is not perfect but overall I don't have anything to complain about
Had a great time living here definitely recommended!!
Very very very very good A good experience
Best place and happy vibes all together
Nice accommodations and student experience
Nice apartment with great student experience
St David’s Swansea reception are helpful and friendly, room is so nice for the price!
Great place to socialise and hang out it's near everything like the train station and the beach and the UWTSD campuses.
Very friendly, lovely staff. Very helpful whenever needed too. Lovely accommodation rooms and the money isn’t too expensive!
It’s been a very great experience to be in St Davids. The service and building management is really amazing. The staff is also is very helpful
Best place to stay, maintained well.
It has been a very comfortable experience staying here, they have been arranging a lot of activities for our mental wellness
It's a nice accomodation, the rent can be high but it's good value and the staff are lovely
Everything is perfect for living, only problem is the wifi isn’t always working
Really good location very friendly staff :)
i love roost very friendly staff and good location
St David's is a very cost effective accomodation. Bringing the best price for an uni hall in the city. It is well located, next to UWTSD and with a bus stop right outside for Swansea University students. Really close to Parc Tawe, Sainsbury's, and reasonably close to the beach. Many different people live here, so there are plenty of opportunities to meet new people.
Helpful and supportive great service and lovely staff
Had the most amazing experience living here, reception staff are always on hand and are very welcoming and lovely!
Had an amazing time being here and felt I’ve been able to express myself at my most freedom since being here.
Very lovely staff. They are all so funny and nice to talk to. Made me feel very welcome and I’ve enjoyed living here. Can’t wait to move to a bigger room next year
Good accommodation and very welcoming staff. Loved here.
As a first year in the st David’s, the experience I have had is amazing and have made so many friends, the social spaces are very welcoming and easily accessible, everything you could want is just there
It's an amazing place to live. I had a chance to meet new people and made some good friends. The management is very supportive and friendly. I highly recommend this place to stay.
Moved here in september and they helped make it easier to settle in after having moved so far away from my hometown.
It's a great place to live and socialise! Close to the city centre and the facilities are excellent as well!
Had an enjoyable stay here so far
Excellent location, great communal areas. One issue I'd say with the accommodation however is bedroom humidity. Apart from that, all good!
It’s a great place full of fun and bubbly personalities. With lots of friendly staff who’s always ready to help you out with all your queries. Especially the following ones not in any specific order: Amy #£6.66##shuturmouth#, Elaine #Whatsthemagicword##shuturmouth#, Jackie #Paul#, James #AoT##animegang#, Olena #theduragmakesulookdifferet#, O.G Chris (R.I.P, will be missed) #OCDgang# and the new addition to the staff Angharad #, Heydan #Ted Bundy/Tom Holland#, Shay #Coyote#, Nicola #msscompetitive#, Fei #screamoofHello’s#
Thank you so much for your review! Though I do hope I'm more Tom Holland than Bundy! I'll definitely pass along your nicknames to the team. :)
I enjoy staying here because there's so much to do, a cinema room, a hub with TVs and pool tables, a karaoke room and a small gym.
Thank you for leaving us a review! We're so happy to hear that you enjoy using all of our fabulous social spaces!
Lovely staff Amy and Els always willing to help😁😁😁😁
Thank you so much for your five-star review! I will definitely let Amy and Els know. :)
My experience at the accommodation has been very interesting and Wonderful staff. Ellie, Amy, James has been fantastic.
Thank you for your review! I'll make sure to pass this on to the night team. :)
Stayed here for the duration of my university studies and it has been my home away from home. Staff have always been really helpful, very chatty and make sure we have opportunity to socials such as putting on events and getting us to engage with each other.
Friendly staff, had a great time here, would definitely recommend.
100mb wifi, what else is there to say?
Did someone say super fast wifi? Perfect for gaming and streaming!
Great community with great staff!
I am satisfied with the organisation. The staff here is best for help and support.
My experience at student roost st davids has been quite good. I was here on my first year and came back for my third. The common area is quite entertaining and the gym is nice too. Rooms are decent and flats include a kitchen to share between 5 flatmates. Overall a very good place to stay for 1 year students
I enjoyed staying here So hard to leave the very supportive concierges and the amazing social spaces. See you soon
My stay was pleasant, would recommend this to anyone looking for student accommodation in Swansea
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us and would recommend us to others - Mark (Ops Manager)
A very friendly staff, working 24/7 to ensure the safety and comfort of students. It is located very close to all the connivence stores, easy to get around down. Approximately 5 minutes walk to the city centre. With value of money, the room is quite spacious and comfortable.
Thanks for the lovely words - they mean so much. I'm so pleased you've enjoyed living with us so much! Mark (Operations Manager)
Nice place. Nice people. Would recommend
Hey, thanks for your nice review - we really thank you for it! Mark (Operations Manager)
The accommodation is definitely on the expensive side. The staffs generally are very friendly and helpful. This is a great place to start off uni experience since it has great social spaces for students of all ages. It would be nice if each flat has its own hover though. Overall, the experience is good and the location is convenient. With one exception this year, I would suggest a review of an assistant manager's performance. She has not been helpful in many occasions to residents and carries the wrong understanding of what her role is toward clients. Yes, we are students but some of us are mature students and not kids. She should be mindful of her attitude and tone. Aside from that, the reception, security and cleaning staffs are very pleasant and are part of a great experience offered at Roost.
Thanks so much for your review, and I'm pleased to hear that overall you've enjoyed living with us. I'm always keen to hear anywhere that you thinkg we can improve and would love to find out more about your feedback, please contact me directly as I would love to talk you in person. Mark (Operations Manager)
Perfect all in all no complaints to be honest
Thanks so much for your lovely review! We're so please you've enjoyed living with us :-)
The accommodation is at a great location and the staff are extremely helpful. Made Amazing friends at this accommodation.
Thats lovely to hear that you've made such a good friends whilst living with us, we love to hear that! Thanks for giving us such a lovely review. Mark :-)
Absolutely beautiful space with access to major essentials. 5 mins from town centre, it doesn’t get better than that
Wow - such amazing feedback. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Mark :-)
Accommodation is overall nice and very social with a few of the staff being really nice and helpful (can provide names if needed), however 80% of staff are rude, unhelpful and only care about if they get your money or not. You will probably receive about 20-30 phone calls mid year asking if you want to rebook even tho you tell them you don’t they carry on. They also brought 8 police officers, 2 security guards and 1 receptionist into our flat to shut down a “party” (which was only 5 residents sitting in a kitchen listening to music) during covid. They also failed to evacuate us from the building or even notify us when there had been a fire on the second floor which caused lots of smoke to fill stairway and lift to shut down and the fire brigade to attend. Good accommodation to meet people in your first year however management of this accommodation/ company really need to sort themselves out!!!!
I'm so sorry that you've had a negative experience living with us, my team and I really do value your feedback and are very disappointed to read your comments. We have taken any breach to COVID guidelines very seriously as the safety of our residents is our top priority. I'd be keen to discuss any of the issues you raised to understand how we could have done better and made your experience a more positive one. Mark (Operations Manager)
Nice place, good staff and accommodation.I strongly recommend
Short and sweet. Thank you so much, we really apprecaite your feedback :-) Mark (Operations Manager)
They helped me a lot at reception and are always super kind! I also make a lot of friends at the countless venues offered.
Your review is super appreciated - thank you! I'm so pleased to hear that you made so many friends living with us. Mark :-) (Operations Manager)
A very comfortable place for international students
Thanks so much, we know how daunted it can be staying somewhere new especially as an international student! Its great that we made you feel comfortable with us :-) Mark (Operations Manager)
the flats and rooms are really nice albeit very cheaply made and of not an amazing condition. it’s a really good location to town but difficult to get to either campus. but the real problem here is the staff. all of them act friendly but actually they’re passive aggressive and completely useless. if you have any maintenance issues, you have to ask at least 4 times before they’re fixed. I had problems with my first flatmates and despite providing them with a full report of how awful it was, they kept making excuses and acting like it wasn’t a big deal causing me to go home for 8 weeks whilst i was still paying rent. the main woman is horrible and none of the staff actually care about their residents only making money off of you. the facilities close all the time without warning and sometimes they access your flat to change/update things without telling you which is fine but a little weird to think someone is in my room without me knowing. it’s good here as long as you never have a issue
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback to us. Whist I'm disappointed to read your review, your feedback helps me and my team understand how we can improve our service when in rare cases one of our residents does not have a gret experience with us. I'd be happy to talk to you in person and am available on site as I'd love to get more information. Mark (Operations Manager)
Great multiple space for socializing and making friends.Friendly staffs and good facilities. Feels like home. Highly recommended.
Wow - feels like home! I'm delighted to read that, as that's exactly how we want all our residents to feel. Thanks for the lovely review. Mark (Operations Manager) :-)
Good location and nice rooms however a bit expensive but has great facilities to contact that
Thanks for your feedback and the lovely review. We have a range of room types to meet different budgets requrements. I'm pleased to read you've enjoyed our newly refurbished social spaces! Mark (Operations Manager)
Really happy with my experience here. Would recommend.
I'm so plesed to hear you'd recommend us, that means so much to me! Mark (Operations Manager)
Great place to stay. Clean and safe and very friendly staff!
My team will be delighted to get your feedback, thank you! Mark (Operations Manager)
In my opinion is the best accommodation in swansea, because of the distant from the citycenter, the value of money and the staff are very kind. 100% recomended
Wow - thanks :-) Your review has blown me away! It's great to read that you've found the team so kind! Mark (Operations Manager)
Friendly staff always up for a chat with the student's social spaces are always clean
My team are always happy to have a natter, you're always welcome to come and say hello to us! Thanks for the lovely review. Mark (Operations Manager)
the accommodation is really helpful towards first year students, they can tend you anytime of the day and always go above and beyond to meet your expectations!
Thanks so much for your review, I'm so pleased to see you've had a great experience in your first year of University whilst living with us! We know its a daunting time to move away from home, so I'm really pleased to hear my team looked after you :-) Mark (Operations Manager)
Awesome places to live in, nice rooms, lovely social rooms
Thanks for your awesome review - the only thing more lovely than our social spaces is you! Mark (Operations Manager)
Excellent location. Good value for money. Fast internet speed.
We know how important fast internet is :-) Thanks for the review, Mark (Operations Manager)
Excellent location, within walking distance of Parc Tawe Retail Park which has Lidl, The Food Warehouse and Costa, amongst others. Amazing conditions and a great overall feel!
Who doesnt like to live close to coffee?? Thanks for the great review, and pointing our fabulous location! Thanks for the review, you're too kind! Mark (Operations Manager)
At David’s student roost Great place to live Good value for money
I'm so pleased you've enjoyed living with us, we've enjoyed having you! Mark (Operations Manager)
I’ve been staying at St. David Student Roost for a year, and have already rebooked. The location right next to the retail park is very ideal, and it’s only a short walk into the city centre. It’s very easy to get to and from the campus, with the bus stop right outside. Management has been very helpful, every time I’ve had any issues all I’ve had to do is ask and it’s solved. Would highly recommend
Wow - I'm thrilled that you've rebooked! Thanks for the lovely feedback about management, I'll pass this onto my Assistant Managers. I really apprecaite your review, and providing such a lovely feedback about St Davids. Mark (Operations Manager)
If the internet could be improved upon, as well as cleaning services, it would be much better...however, everything goes on well here.
Hey, I'd love to speak to you to find out more about your feedback! If you've had problems with the internet we have support on hand 24/7 to resolve any technical issues. Our Housekeepers are on site to keep all the communal areas clean and tidy, but we appreciate a flatmate who doesn't do their dishes can be fustrating! We're on hand to help resolve these little issues, feel free to come and chat to me in reception anytime. Mark (Operations Manager)
saint david indian crazy mad female tenent yelled and scoffed our chinese food as disgusting. And management agree with her statement. I recommend chinese student should not lodge in this student roost as they dun respect us at all
Gosh, I'm so sorry to hear that you've had problems with a flatmate. I know my team have spoken to you about this since you're review and I'm confident we've been able to resolve things for you. Feel free to come and talk to me if you need any further support. Mark (Operations Manager)
Very good accommodation for a relatively low price.
Thanks for the review, I really apprecaite it :-) Mark (Operations Manager)
Great value for money and great experience here
Thanks you so much, I'm so pleased you enjoyed your experience with us :-) Mark
I have been staying at St Davids for 3 years and will be sad to leave this summer when I graduate. The facilities are fantastic and the staff are amazing. St Davids has become a home away from home for me.
Three years! I'm pleased they've been three fantastic years! We're going to miss you when you go! "Home away from home" - there's nothing I'd rather read in a review. Thank you! Mark (Operations Manager)
DO NOT LIVE HERE I moved in to student roost for my first year of university, so far it has been a nightmare. The great social spaces that they advertise are nearly always closed without an explanation. Most of the staff members are happy to help you but unfortunately there is one that is passive aggressive, so much that you’d prefer not to ask for your mail. There is small amount of anti social behaviour, so roost decided to bring in security that guard the gates like a prison. Unfortunately, the staff care more about there processes than actually sorting issues out. They prefer to pick on individual students than tackling the groups that are causing big problems. Do not fall for “this is your home” this is a hell home.
I'm sorry to read that you're experience living with us has not been positive one. We had to introduce restrictions to some of our social spacess in line with government guidance to keep our residents as safe as possible throughout the last 18 months. Student Roost brought in additional team members throughout the pandemic to support our residents and increase the presence of our staff to in response to isolated COVID breaches and ensure that all of our residents continued to feel safe and looked after throughout the pandemic. I would be happy to discuss anything with you in more detail and am available to meet with you at any time. Mark (Operations Manager)
This is my first year at student roosts and also my first year in uni. The staff are all friendly and are willing to help whenever it’s required, it honestly feels like a second home
We are so glad that your first year at St David's and University has been an enjoyable one..that's our aim, a home away from home! :)
I have lived here for 4 years and it has been the best 4 years of my life. The staff here is like a family and I'm going to miss seeing them everyday. Definitely recommend everyone coming to swansea to stay at st David's.
Thank you for making St David's your home for the last four years! :)
My first time away in a student accommodation, and I’ve enjoyed myself. The people I’m sharing with are great, and any time I’ve had any issues the night owls have always been ready to help!
Hello, thank you for your lovely review. So happy to see that you've enjoyed your experience, many thanks, Lowri
I want to thank Saint David's team for making me feel during my first year of studies, safe and welcome; everytime that I am walking through or visiting reception there is always a very warm and friendly atmosphere. Their encouraging emails and the understanding quotes in the reception, makes the whole COVID situation much more sufferable.
Thank you so much for your kind words which mean a lot to the team here at St Davids. We continue to be here on site for all of our students :)
Normally a great place. However, during the coronavirus pandemic, they have been dreadful! Refusing to cancel tenancys when people are stuck at home unable to get back, a real lack of empathy and understanding. Accommodations nearby including Bay Campus, offering cancellations for those returning home due to unprecedented times. Very disappointing
These are incredibly challenging times and we are doing everything we can to support our residents. Although our properties remain open and residents remain enrolled with their university, we do understand why many of you have chosen to move out of your accommodation to study online in your family home. As these are unprecedented circumstances, we have made an exception to our normal cancellation policy to support our residents. We will be cancelling residents’ payments from 1 May if you plan to move out, or have already moved out of your Roost home and will not be returning after the Easter break. To let us know you would like to do this, please email early.release@studentroost.co.uk. We are continuing to provide 24/7 support all our residents, including those who do not wish to, or cannot, move out of their student accommodation. We have consistently followed all NHS and government advice around COVID-19 (coronavirus) and will continue to do so, and have ensured continuity of vital services like broadband and receipt of deliveries, which is now more important than ever. We hope this helps provide some assurance in these difficult times.
The most amazing staff and wonderful location. Love it here. Great support!
Thanks, we love that you loved it here!
The only thing I can say about the place is that it’s a home away from home. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Love this place and will miss it once I am done studying.
Thanks so much for your feedback; we're so pleased we made St Davids a home away from home for you!
If social spaces means a giant room with numerous computers and settees as soon as you walk into the building then that is great.
Hello. Next time you're downstairs don't forget to go and explore The Cwtch, Hub and study space along with the gym which offers some great space for you to use. If you would like us to show you all of our amenieties why not pop to reception next time you're passing :)
Lovely place to live, so far. Absolutely worth the money. The bed's comfy, the view out my window is nice, the walls and floors are very soundproof. Staff are lovely. Internet occasionally goes off randomly but when it works it's very fast, enough for gaming and voice calling. There's a gym (not that I've been there, but I've heard it's good), laundry rooms (never busy!), and there's a Lidls literally three minutes away. They are extremely lenient if you have a problem paying rent or if there's been a problem with your loan. I specifically have a disabled room, and it's more than I could've hoped for. Loads of room so no tripping over or struggling to get past the desk or bed, everything's very accessible, and the bathroom has a special shower and enough bars that I can navigate no problem. Only downside is the fire alarms always get set off at like 3am the day before you have class. But I guess that's a safety thing too?
Hello :) Thank you so much for your lovely review and so glad that you've settled so well here at St Davids.

Internet occasionally goes off randomly but when it works it's very fast, enough for gaming and voice calling. There's a gym (not that I've been there, but I've heard it's good), laundry rooms (never busy!), and there's a Lidls literally three minutes away. They are extremely lenient if you have a problem paying rent or if there's been a problem with your loan. I specifically have a disabled room, and it's more than I could've hoped for. Loads of room so no tripping over or struggling to get past the desk or bed, everything's very accessible, and the bathroom has a special shower and enough bars that I can navigate no problem. Only downside is the fire alarms always get set off at like 3am the day before you have class. But I guess that's a safety thing too?
Thank you so much for your lovely review. Many thanks, Lowri
Public spaces are very well managed. The vending machines in social spaces need to be restocked more often. Reliability of the internet leaves a lot to be desired.
Thank you for your review. Please can you pop to reception in order for us to escalate any internet issues with our third party contractor. Thank you :)
good location for University of Wales students
Thank you for your review :)
New, easy to clean cabin type flats, 24hr security, good-sized kitchens, social spaces, bike parking with a small gym on-site & helpful and friendly, full-time reception staff. It's my 4th year here, I love it!
Thank you for your valued custom :) So glad we've been able to be such a massive part of your uni life!
A very good place to meet new people, very easy for trinity students due to distance to uni.
I'm so happy you've met so mny people here :) Thank you for your review!

Thank you for your lovely review :) Lowri
St David's is a great place to live whilst being at uni. It is located right near town which is convenient, as well as travel to both campuses are quick and easy. The social rooms and living space they provide is great to relax. the halls and rooms are very spacious.
Thank you for your valued feedback :)
A value for money place,clean areas, friendly and helpful hall management 24/7. Highly recommended if you are looking for a place to have your best time as a student and enjoy to the fullest the life in Swansea.
Thank you so much for your feedback :)
Plenty of space in kitchen and bedrooms,
Thank you for your review :)
the staff are good and social areas are relaxing. its a good place to live and close to town
I'm so glad that you're enjoying your time here at St Davids, Lowri
lovely staff amazing people and a really good experience to start uni off
Thank you for your feedback! I will pass on to the staff :)
Amazing facilities that make leaving home easier. Amazing staff that help with any issues that you may have. Great rooms and the kitchen. social hubs are something that makes making friends a lot easier. WiFi is brilliant in my room, can be slow in the kitchen and outside in the courtyard.
Thank you so much for your feedback :)
I moved here for my first year in university. i have had a great experience from meeting new friends within the accommodation social areas. You wouldn't expect a halls residence to be in such a high standard from the style to the cleanliness. Management are also supportive from dealing with rooms to helping with personal issues. Student Roost is a excellent place to live throughout the university years meeting a variety or people and a range of different experiences.
What a lovely review! Thank you so much for your feedback. We really appreciate it, Lowri :)
It’s my first year at uni and I fell in love with the place at an open day for UWTSD. Staff are friendly and always help to ensure we have good experiences. We also have social events and spaces where we can meet up with others in the comfort of our Accomodation - boosting my confidence loads especially since I can get very shy and anxious around others. couldn’t be happier here
Thank you for your lovely review :)
Really friendly staff. Nice looking place. Bad WiFi. Uses Circuit laundry which is bad and expensive for what you get. Lots of previous damage to flats, some of which you won’t notice till after they require you to report so will try to fine you for it. Would recommend you, your flats mates and everyone how helps any of you move down check everything and write down the issues and once everyone has done so email with all the issues
Thank you for your review. I am aware that any issues has already been discussed with you, please let us know if you are still experiencing issues with the internet in order for us to highlight with the third party contractors. As advised, we have on site staff ready to resolve any enquiries brought to our attention 🙂 We would recommend all students to ensure that a full inventory is completed at the time of move in. I am unaware of any fines that have been raised against your account but more than happy to discuss with you further. Thank you so much for your valued custom and I'm so glad you've decided to stay with us again! Lowri
My time here so far has been really enjoyable, everything is kept running really efficiently and I feel fortunate to have the social spaces that are available. In terms of value I that for what you get, it is extremely worth the money I paid especially with the Gold room.
Thank you for your great feedback! We love our social spaces and so glad that you're using them so much! We can't wait for our new social spaces that will also be added to the accomodation from next September :)
In all amazing accommodation would definitely recommend
Thank you so much for your valued feedback! We are so happy you are loving your experience here! St Davids Team
Excellent location. Very good customer service.
Thank you so much for your valued feedback. I'm so glad you've enjoyed the experience so far :)
excellent facilities and social events are provided. very friendly and helpful staff.
Thank you so much for your feedback! We love to create a home for our students and I'm so happy to hear that you've enjoyed our facilities. Many thanks, Lowri
the environment here is very good. the social aspect is good. water is not very fast draining but all else very good.
Thank you for your feedack and I'm so glad to hear you're really enjoying the social aspect of living here. In regards to the water, our maintenance team are on site 6 days a week and will happily sort this out for you :) Many thanks, Lowri
I've had the opportunity to meet a lot of new people and make new friends that will last a long time. It's been really good and I'm glad I chose to come here. Although it is a little expensive.
It's so nice to hear that you've had a great experience and met lots of new friends which I'm sure you'll have in your life for years to come. Many thanks, Lowri
The place is very convenient for students, it is very safe place to leave as there is also security. The maintenance team is amazing, and they repair anything in less than 24 hours .
We are very proud of our great onsite maintenace team here at St Davids and so glad to hear you've had a great experience here :) Many thanks, Lowri
Very happy with stay. Amazing social spaces and a lot to do. Rooms are a good size and kitchen accommodates well. No issues with anything all year round, staff are really friendly and helpful. Would recommend.
Thanks for your great feedback. We are so happy that you've had such a great experience living here at St Davids. Many thanks, Lowri
A great student experience with all facilities included. However, there are some faults with pool table and occassional faults with wifi.
Thank you for your valued feedback and very happy to hear of your great experience here at St Davids. We endevour to work closely with our third party internet provider and will forward your feedback to them to ensure the internet service here is always to the highest standard. Our pool table has changed over the last year to be free of charge which may have caused some faults at the time and we can only apologise for any inconveniences this may have caused. We wish you all the luck in the future. Lowri
A fantastic student experience available to all. a home from home just right in the perfect spot, in the middle of town. Would recommend to anyone. Sad to be leaving! :(
Thank you for your great feedback! This review has made all the team very happy. Have a lovely summer. Lowri
Good place good location however location
Thanks for your great feedback. Have a lovely summer!
helpful staff and great place to meet new people.
This review has made our staff here at St Davids very happy. Thank you
To begin with, the staff were very helpful; for example, before moving I was able to call the site multiple times with any queries or questions I had, and on the actual moving day the process was made way less stressful by the available information and staff members. To help residents get to know each other Student Roost held a "Welcome Party" and they even provided a bus and wristband for the most popular club in the area! It is efforts such as these that have made staying here worthwhile and more enjoyable. When the reception staff finish at 8. a security guard takes over and maintains the safety of all the residents. Rebooking my room has been made so much easier, and I wouldn't hesitate to live here for the entirety of my university career- especially when considering the fact that Student Roost is slightly cheaper than staying on campus (as a Swansea University student).
Thank you for your great feedback! Keep your eyes peeled on emails coming out where our tenants will be able to help us organise future events! Your feedback is much appreciate and helps us to ensure all of our tenants are happy!
great service would recommend to anyone who is looking for high quality student accommodation.
Thank you, this has made our staff here at St Davids very happy. Lowri
only bus 10 come here Kitchen sometimes really dirty
Thank you for your valued feedback. Please don't hesitate to come to reception where we will be able to give out some handy bus timetables and direct you to the nearby bus stop which also caters for those who would also like to use the number 8 bus. We're sorry to hear that you've had a negative experiene with your shared kitchen. We appreciate with join responsibility this can often be challenging but the team will always be available to help with any internal flat issues when they occur. Please don't hesitae to pop to reception and we can go through it with you. Lowri
Made good friends here! In the beginning of the year everyone was really friendly, at the end of the year they didn't care anymore and the staff reacts really rude. They don't help with communication and don't give an entry notice in time. They can give a harsh comment if you ask for help or something doesn't go how they want it. Lift broke down and they didn't give any updates. They defend it was only for sone weeks but in the end we didn't have a lift for almost 2 months. In the end they didn't care anymore. Wifi is also really bad and cuts out almost every day. A lot of noise in the courtyard and the security doesn't do anything about it cause they are too busy watching youtube on their phone. In the end they didn't give as much freebies anymore and no free breakfast anymore. Too expensive.
Thanks so much for your review, we're really sorry that we didnt meet your expectations. Our lift was out of action for a couple of weeks, however the safety of our residents has to come first and until our supplier was able to source the correct parts we couldnt put it back in use. On this occassion our supplier let us down and weren't able to resolve it as quickly as we wanted, however the lift has been operational since December without any futher issues. I'm sorry to hear that you've had some issues with the internet, if you contact us and let us know your details we will escalate with the third party internet provider. I am sorry to hear about the comments made in regards to our security and the issues raised seem very much out of character therefore if you would like to contact me directly on am.stdavids@studentroost.co.uk we can fully address. If you have any problems again please don't hesitate to come and speak to us. :)
Really friendly staff, always happy to help! Flats themselves are up to date and comfy, just enough space!
Thanks for your great feedback! The staff are very happy with your comments :)
The location is very nice as its near everything and the stuff is very friendly.
Thank you for your great feedback. The staff are very happy with your comments :)

Thank you for your feedback. The staff here are very passionate about ensuring that all tenants have the best uni experience and this comment makes us very happy :)
Had nothing but problems here since I've moved in. It's in a great location but the staff need to pay more attention to serious issues going on within their accommodation.
Thank you for your feedback. Here at St Davids we endevour to ensure that all of our tenants have the best student experience and its dissapointing to hear the comments made. In order to continue our customer care we would appreciate if you could pop us an email am.stdavids@studentroost.co.uk in order for us to ensure that all of the problems you've experienced are addressed. Thank you in advance, Lowri
WiFi always cuts out and goes down, when lift is broken it takes months to fix and complaints don’t get sorted unless you complain multiple times, I.e maggots in flat

Many thanks, Lowri
Really friendly staff, social events that could suit anyone, excellent experience.
Thank you for your comments. This makes our team here at St Davids very happy :)
Alright place, staff is quite nice but head manager says to his staff that they can't be close with their tenants to talk to them about stuff. Good location, but a bit overpriced for the services (washingmachines, lift breaks down and don't fix it). Loud in the courtyard at night (it can be loud on a student night, but they should keep it in hand).
Thanks so much for your review, we'd love for you to come and speak to us as we're really sorry that we didnt meet your expectations. Our 24 hour team are always happy to respond to any issues, including noise so be sure to contact them if this happens again. If you do have any problems with the washing machines please let us know straight away and we'll contact the provider on your behalf to sort these out if they arent helping you.

Amazing stay for the year. Wish the curtains were blackout.
We are pleased to hear you've had a great year at St Davids. We take on board your comments and this is something we will look at for the future.
i enjoy my stay at st davids. staff are very friendly and helpful
Thank you for your review. Glad we've been of help to you and you've enjoyed living here.
Very nice place to live. Good room with enough space, big wardrobe, plenty of shelves including lovely ones near bed, very nice bathroom. Staff are amazing, very helpful. A bit pricy, but worth it. Very close to centre, Lidl is just in a minute of walking. Overall great place for students to live!
Thank you for your review. We're glad that you are enjoying your time here St Davids :)
I rate the hall management one star because as I was booking on for next year with a £200 off deal, they reassured me it would be easy to cancel if I successfully got a YII placement as long as I cancelled before July and they still said that the day I booked. March I successfully got a placement sorted, but I couldn't cancel my contract for next year because the policies had changed half way through this deal and multiple staff kept relaying me incorrect information and has now caused me even more stress to find someone to replace my contract on top of assignments and exams as I have no time to. I read all the policies last year and was completely unaware they changed. The amount of money you're paying, you'd think that someone would take out the bins and go over the kitchen or at least make sure the kitchen is clean every once a week but only the entrance to the block and lift are cleaned. The good points: 24 hour security, amazing social spaces and 24 hour parcel pick up.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. We are glad to hear that you’re pleased with our 24hour services. Regarding our cancellation policy we are sorry to hear that you felt there was miscommunication. Due to us being unable to identify you, please come and see us in reception so we can investigate this further and resolve any issues. Our team will be happy to clear up any misunderstanding of our cancellation policy. We hope you enjoy the rest of your time at St Davids and good luck with your placement next year.
st Davids offer a good value for money student accommodation having all of the bills and WiFi included in the price not only makes life simpler but also saves me time while i'm studying .
Happy to hear that living here has made your time at University easier. Thank you for taking the time to review us. :)
Living in St David’s is great. There are social events that are amazing and the staff are so lovely. I love my flat and the facilities as well. I didn’t consider moving into a house for my second year, I rebooked my room instead.
So glad that you've enjoyed the social events, we enjoy hosting them. Happy to see you've rebooked, there will be a lot more fun events to come.
Overall, solid accomodation, however, and this is only my experience, you can be made to feel uncomfortable at times by other people, esspecially for someone like me who gets anxious easily.
Thank you for your feedback. Please don't hesitate to come and speak to me directly in regards to any issues you may be having within the accommodation. We are pasionate to ensure that all of our tenants have the best Uni experience and have great links with both University student services and would love the opperunity to assist you with any issues you may have experienced. Please don't hesitate to contact me directly, many thanks, Lowri
Staff are super friendly. Location is brilliant for students it’s got everything we need. The on site gym is nice and convenient. Very safe place to live. I’ve been here 3 years never want to leave...
This makes us very happy! Thank you for staying with us for three years and making St Davids a part of your overall Uni experience :)
friendly staff, great social events
Thank you for your feedback :)
A comfortable space to live in. Staff at reception are always ready to help and are friendly. Brilliant location too - 10 minute walk from city centre and it’s right next to the train station.
Thank you for your feedback :)
A good accomodation, with a few delays in fixing lift. And wifi tends to cut out at the most inconvenient times

Have loved living at st davids, would recommend it to anyone studying at UWTSD or Swansea uni! Clean, helpful staff, always want to make you feel at home! Such an amazing place!!
Thank you so much for your feedback :)
I really love living at St. David’s! The team are all so friendly and welcoming, hosting a variety of events suitable for everyone! The halls are so close to everything that you need mike uni campuses, the train station, bus stations, shops and supermarkets to get food! The city centre is a short five to ten minute walk, making it super easy for students to be sociable. We are also surrounded by lots of beaches and nature trails so we can go for walks! St David’s is awesome!
Great to see that you've been enjoying everything that Swansea has to offer during your time here! :)
Having moved 200 miles away from home it's been nice to come somewhere that is really understanding and accommodating to students
This has made our staff very happy! Thank you :)
