Good morning. Direcctly across from our building and many other residential blocks and flats, HS2 are carrying out works on the railway surrounding Euston station. Once the works are complete, there will be even better connections to London and beyond, however until the works are complete there will be periods of construction work and noise during normal business hours which is outside of our control. For more information visit HS2 HS2 in Camden - HS2
Communal areas are cleaned once daily by on site staff. However, it is the responsibility of each residents to ensure they clean up after themselves at all times to maintain a clean environment for everyone living in the building.

This is incorrect. The construction of the HS2 poses no increased risk to residents and in fact there are more patrols in the area because of the work.

Washrooms and bathrooms could be cleaner at times, but overall a great residence. Very responsive to issues.

Thank you for your feedback. We apologise if you felt that our security team dealt with you is this manner. It is our policy to ensure that all guests including overnight guests are signed in, so we are aware of everyone in the building at all times. This is vital for health and safety.
There’s always some sort of construction going on at any time of the day. You can’t really relax there

The house and community is quite wholesome, the garden side giving cottage core vibes even though it is so close to the center. Communal areas are nice and comfy and safe, the house is close to Regent's Park AND Camden Town, so pretty perfect for a student accommodation. The only downside is the construction side on the train station right opposite the house. If you can get a room on the garden side, get it. But in terms of rooms, the small ones are quite small, it is worth getting a bigger one since the price difference is not too big.

Hi, thank you for your review!
It's a nice apartment in a nice location and quiet. It's safe, I've never lost anything here, the security is very reassuring, it's very busy, it's next to the Regent's Park. The only downside is that the room size is really small, and if you can accept that, that's great.

Thank you for your review, we're happy you had a good experience with us.
I stayed in Goldsmiths house from 2019-2020,it had been such a wonderful experience. I heard alot about horrible accomodations and flats,but this place wasn't. I came from a very socially connected family and country to study my master in the UK,and I was expecting myself to struggle with being lonely and not having the real sense of family,but it doesn't happen. Can you imagine that I really started to miss my family back home when I moved out of Goldmiths?!. This place has everything that you need make out the best of your studies for many reasons: Firstly,it is always clean,all the common areas are sparklingly clean all the day because of the dedicates staff who are always there and they clean on a daily basis. The only thing you need to take care of is your room. Secondly, The availability of the quite study room helped me alot while searching for a place to focus and not sleep ( I'm a library person,I am not the kind of people who have the strong will for studying on their room,I
Cant imagine why there are negative reviews. This is a small female only accommodation. Lovely atmosphere, very clean with on site cleaners. Construction noise is minimal and building has double glazing. it has a wonderful rose garden that residents can use. A TV room and a study room for the 80 residents. Very friendly residents and staff. A brilliant experience to live there.
Regrettably does not compare with even the most pestilential of student halls. Black mould growing on bathroom surfaces Some public areas only cleaned once a week e.g. bathrooms No gym One, tiny badly fitted study room for the whole building Miniature rooms with window limiters preventing air circulation. Dangerously hot in summer. Mice in kitchen - always False fire alarm activations at all hours of the night forcing evacuations Resident doors faulty and slam loudly Noise, air pollution and room vibration from longterm HS2 construction work make is very hard to study, hear the TV, make phone calls and talk to room mates. Will continue until at least 2026. Some residents have to go to overseas homes to study for finals and complete dissertations because the disruptions are intolerable Informal settlement of migrants growing around the corner to the halls. Many students have been mugged, intimidated and assaulted metres from the halls. The epitome of hell. Avoid.
