I appreciate the management team of the property, because of their dedication to ensuring that everything is kept up to scratch with regards to cleanliness and maintenance, as well as handling parcels and mail. It has been a great stay at Elizabeth Croll House, with the only drawback being a lack of airconditioning, which can't be blamed on the management due to the restrictions in zoning and the general lack of airconditioning in the UK. Overall, it's a great place to stay and I would recommend it to students looking for a central location accommodation with less of the raucous crowd commonly found in other university accommodations.

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.

Good very clean and convenient
Excellent position, a good value for money and very fast service.
Great experience living here, great location
Good in general. Staffs are really helpful.
The location is quite good, 20 minutes walk to UCL, and the sound insulation is the best point of this apartment! However, the smell of the bathroom sewer is quite unpleasant, hope it can be solved.
I’ve stayed in this accommodation for three years and the receptionists are nice and enthusiastic about their work, and they really help me with my heater!
The overall experience is great!
nice but quite hot in the room
Coffee machine stops working every now and then.
Good location!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice place to live! Emmanuel’s service is warm and helpful!
Thank you very much for your great review. We are glad to read that you are happy with our Elizabeth Croll House Team. I will be sure to pass your kind words onto our staff. Kind regards. Julien
The social space is essentially just a study space, there have been very few events organised and I know no one in the building. The maintenance and property management is sub-par, I had unresolved maintenance issues for months that had a significant impact on my quality of living. The rooms also reek of damp and nothing is done about this. Overall it is not good value for money.
Super friendly staffs work here.
