I stayed in Grange House flat 201 room 1 for 3 weeks before dropping out for reasons unrelated! I wanted to make a review as there is very little information regarding Grange House online and available from YSJ and thought it might help others considering accomodation on The Grange. My room was very spacious with a large ensuite - there is a good attention to detail with the rooms which have been refurbished in recent years eg a hand towel rail and large storage under the bed. The rooms in Grange House are all very different but have a more cozy feel compared to St Mary's House which is located opposite and have a bit of character with the 3 sash windows in my room overlooking the courtyard filled with wildflowers! Value for money with this flat was great - I would have paid £5900 for the year and I think it's worth the money compared to other halls of residence. It's location is good - only 8 minute walk from the uni campus and 15 mins into the centre of York.

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.
