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.

The rooms are very nice and the kitchens are comfortable, and I like the most are the social spaces and the gym. Sometimes there were issues with hot water/heater and fire alarms, but they were fixed, and whenever I emailed about maintenance issues, I got an immediate reply and action. The supermarkets and buses are really close by so it's a good location.

No hot water or heating for the first 2 months of living here. Regularly hear other people running down and up the corridors screaming in the middle of the night. If you aren’t moving in with a group of your friends I really wouldn’t recommend.

Lomax Halls is a great student accomodation. I live in a studio and have a spacious bedroom as well as a living room,kitchen and bathroom. I have way more space than I did in the studio I rented last year. The managment is helpful and any issues are solved fast. It is also clean and the facilities are great.

The accommodation is absolutely appalling the management team seem not too care and they are unhelpful and rude most of the time I had no power for 4 days and got told it was my fault. The wifi is pretty unusable the whole accommodation is just very poor and very run down. I would like to speak to someone who works at fresh to sort these issues as I would like some of my money back.

I highly recommend living here, the rooms are a little more expensive compared to some accommodations but if you can afford it its worth it. Pros - It's a 12-15 minute walk to the Cadman building at Staffs uni, which is v close for off campus (and is basically the same distance away as college court, an on campus accommodation) - The staff are all so nice and responsive to any problems that you have, you don't have to wait decades for the maintenance people. - A 4 minute walk from Sainsburys and Lidl - Elevator - Surprisingly average amount of fire drills - Built in gym is small but it's perf for just working out - Cinema room but the chairs are kinda not comfy ngl - Does not use wash station (Big pro) - The beds are unbelievably comfy at least mine is - Two. Floor. Studios. the space you get is crazy Cons: - Sometimes there is dodgy electrics (Lights and sockets), I did have my power blown out by a toaster but it was quickly fixed dw - Studio stairs are a death trap

Great place to live, being close to everything you will need. The rooms are nice with plenty of space, and the kitchens are large so great for cooking and socialising! The staff are always friendly and make you feel welcome, giving a warm atmosphere throughout the year.

At the start there were some difficulty with maintenance work and during my stay there was still some construction work. Therefore we had to move several times and ofcourse there was sometimes an issue with the noise of the work, that was a little annoying. But overall we were well cared for, we got great value for little money and Zuzi took wonderful care of us and was always happy to help us with anything. I felt very welcome in Lomax Halls and I would definitely recommend it to others.
