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.

I am livid! I can understand if this hostile refuses to refund customers for bad reasons like finding a cheaper place once the customer bought a reservation. But when the customer's flight thereto is cancelled and there is NOTHING the customer can do about it, then if the hostile will not refund any of the cost, that is wrong!!! They are a hostele that only cares about customers before they pay. After the hotel has been payed, the customer is chopped liver! I am so ticked off! I will be in London again, but I will not book with them! Fellow travelers, you have been warned!
Overall the place is a great location as it is located near Tate Modern and many other attractions. The rooms are neat as well. However the staff there can be really rude and as much as I hate to mention this, they can be really racist. Plenty of my friends have had terrible experience with them as they are rude and always international students differently from the local students.
[Master Student Review] : Great Student Hall. Perfect location [15-20 minutes away from the LSE by feet]. Had an amazing experience. Available facilities are great to meet people, share knowledge, experiences and of course having fun. Would obviously recommend !
