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.

St Pat’s is definitely outdated but by far it is so sociable because you meet more than just your flat mates. Everybody is in the same situation by being catered and not having an en-suite so it’s an extra thing to bond over.

Bedroom: Spacious (storage under bed) Closet and drawers large! Bathroom is nice :Shower is Stiff. White Walls get dirty quick Heaters are good! Internet is rubbish!! Use the ethernet cable or ask for a WIFI extender as it doesnt work that well! Cork board is also very Shallow so pins dont fully go in! Desk is large! Bed is quite shallow bring a thick mattress protector as the beds aren’t amazing but worth it! Kitchen: Lots of storage space(3 cupboards each min). Hobs are well used heat increases as turned counter clockwise. Six people but only 4 seats in the sofa and 5 chairs in the table! Tv jas been broken for ages but no maintenance has fixed it!

Everything was good, with the exception of cleaners trying to find excuses not to do their job, the maintenance was not always reliable or done with good pace but there was still a decent turn around comsidering the amount of people than need to be catered for. The only gripe is the amount of money paid but honestly, everything to do with university is overpriced. Another issue is the need to pay £2 every time you want to use a washing machine, since they don't come with the halls. Everything else was excellent though.

Only thing that I could really fault on a serious level would be that you're paying £141 per week (probably more for 15/16 freshers), and the wifi is shocking. If you haven't done your washing up the cleaner won't come at all, they will walk in and straight out again. And you have to pay for your laundry. Which in other university halls at our university like sansome halls you don't have to and there is one integrated in the kitchen.

It was good the room we're well furnished and the staff were ok but it was expensive and you were forced to chose them even if you didn't want to
