Michelle was awesome, she needs a promotion. However a few of the new staff at the reception, who I think was the manager, is way too controlling and needs to calm down.

The accommodation is fine, except that the management team can’t enforce rules. 1) It is forbidden to smoke in the courtyard, yet people smoke there day and night, and the smell of the smoke goes into your room if it is facing the courtyard. 2) it is forbidden to make noise after 10 PM, yet there are often at night groups of people in the courtyard who laugh and shout loudly, which makes it difficult to sleep. If you call the administration, they will come and deal with it, but they are not proactive, so you are already awake. 3) sometimes residents dump their garbage in wrong places. Except for this, all good. Location is very convenient, room is spacious enough, wifi, electricity and water are good, they recycle garbage, etc
Collection of parcels took several days for us, even my package was delivered yesterday, the reception made it an extra three days to get
Yusuf, Michelle, Steph, Ram and all of the reception team have been exceptionally professional and helpful. They deserve a pay rise to be honest…

This accommodation is the worst place you could possibly stay in London. First of all, it is extremely expensive for what it actually offers and not a good value for the money. Most of the private rentals are way cheaper if shared. The security for this accommodation is at the lowest point. First of all, at the beginning of the year (October 2019), someone entered the accommodation and threatened one of the students with a knife (even though we are supposed to have a key to enter and 24h security). The man entering the building stole all valuable items of the student. He was not caught, and the student wasn't even able to make a formal complaint. Multiple times, the security guard was not even present at the reception for several minutes or even hours (especially in the evening). Also, they are extremely rude and unprofessional, screaming several times to students. There are also problems with room maintenance, WIFI and noise during night.
Cleanest and best accommodation but the rooms could be bigger.
on 9th floor, block 1, there has been an infestation of mice for more 2 months and no action has been taken yet. People are sleep deprived, cannot cook in their own kitchen due to the unhealthy conditions caused by the droppings of mice, and, to make it worse, it's exam period. People woke up in the middle of the night from the noise of the mouse in their room. Please consider before booking a room here. The service regarding this matter has been absoluteley terrible.
