Most helpful review

The price is affordable for two occupants in a studio. The kitchen and the room is clean, modern, and newly updated. The site is quiet so it is really good for studying.

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.

Wentworth College is the ideal accommodation for first-year students. It is located in a lovely green area on Campus West. Wentworth College is close to the library and to a range of premises and university-related venues. Issues regarding my room or shared social spaces were solved promptly and to my full satisfaction. However, Wentworth College is far from the city centre and from more affordable or better shopping facilities. All in all, I recommend Wentworth College to students who are looking for a less expensive accommodation which is close to university.

It is a decent accommodation, but I would only recommend it for students who are on a very tight budget. Off campus housing is much better and comes with more amenities. Wentworth is far from the city centre and not easily accessible.

The place is decent but for the money you pay you can get very little in comparison to off campus housing. The kitchens come with no supplies whatsoever, the en-suite pod is so small with a shower that's only separated from the rest of the pod with a curtain. The cleaning and drying services are expensive and awful.
