    How Do I Book?

    It’s easy - just click on any of the "Book Now" buttons around the website and start your application. If you need any help or advice or want to book their short-term lets or summer stays, you can speak to the amber agent.

    What Do I Need to Know About the Booking Process?

    The booking process is quick and easy but it will be helpful to have some information to hand when you start your application – having the name, email and address of your guarantor, a head and shoulders photo of yourself and a bank card to make your advance rent/booking fee payment (ROI only) will all save you time!

    Do I need to pay a deposit to book a room at this property?

    To learn more about the deposit requirement, please check the policy section above, or feel free to reach out to your amber agent.

    How Can I Choose the Best Room For Me?

    We want you to choose a room you are going to be happy living in and we know everyone has a different wish list – from the floor the room is on to the view and the amenities in the room, the Residents’ Team will be on hand to discuss this with you and help you make the best selection.

    What Size is a Small Double Bed?

    Their room descriptions explain whether you will have a standard or small double bed. A small double is the same length as the standard but just a tiny bit narrower. Also known as a 3/4 size bed, small doubles measure approx. 120cm wide x 190cm long. Still plenty of room for a good night's sleep, even if there's two of you sharing.

    Can I Come to Have a Look Around Before I Book?

    Of course! They are very proud of their properties and would love to show you around. If you want to bring some friends or family members that’s absolutely fine too – they just ask that you speak to their Residents’ Team in advance so they can make sure they have some rooms available to show you. If you find yourself in the area and haven’t had a chance to speak to them you can still pop in, whilst they might not have a room to show you they will still be able to show you around their Residents’ Shared Spaces. They can also offer online video viewings if you don’t live locally so let them know what works for you.

    I Have a Medical Condition Which Means I Have Certain Requirements for My Room?

    Please get in touch with their Residents’ Team – they are experts on their properties and most have rooms with varying levels of adaptations so their team will be able to help you. If you book online with the help of an amber agent and indicate you have a medical condition, the booking process will automatically pause so you can speak with them.

    Can I Book Together With a Group of Friends?

    Yes! The residence team know that choosing who you live with is really important so in their properties with shared apartments group booking can easily be organised by getting in touch with your amber agent.

    When Can I Move In?

    A few weeks before the start of your tenancy they will get in contact to ask you to watch their induction video and book a move-in slot. You will need to do this so they can make sure they are expecting you.

    Can I Order Bedding and Kitchen Packs?

    Yes! Order bedding, kitchen packs and other uni essentials from their shop.

    Do I Need a TV Licence?

    Yes, unless they tell you they're covering it. If you watch or record programmes as they are being shown, watch catch-up TV such as iPlayer, or watch live TV online you will need a licence. This applies to any provider you use and any device, including a TV, desktop computer, laptop, mobile phone, tablet, games console, digital box or DVD/VHS recorder.

    Can I Have A Pet?

    Student accommodation is often not a suitable environment for pets and that’s why pets of any shape or size aren't allowed.

    Can I Invite Guests to Stay In My Room?

    They're all grown-ups here so of course occasional overnight guests are allowed. Please don't invite someone to stay for more than three consecutive nights though, and always check with your flatmates first that they're ok with extra house guests.

    Will My Room be Inspected?

    Yes, they conduct inspections at least three times during your tenancy. They'll keep an eye on cleanliness and hope not to see any damage or missing items. After each inspection they will tell you if any charges need to be made to put something right. You will be invoiced immediately for recharges for the first two inspections and on the final inspection a deduction will be made from your Tenancy Deposit. The cost of recharges for cleaning, damages and missing items can be found in the Residents’ Handbook.

    Do I Need to Move Out Over the Christmas and Easter Holidays?

    No, your room is yours for the whole of your tenancy. You only need to move out at the end of the agreement. It will be your responsibility to check with the local Council if Council Tax will be due if you stay during the holidays.

    Will I Be Charged for Damages?

    As part of your contract you have agreed to look after your room and not cause any damage. They know accidents do sometimes happen so a list of possible damage charges are available in their Residents’ Handbook.

    Can I Smoke/Vape?

    All their properties are smoke free and this includes all types of E-cigarettes and Vapes. Smoking is not allowed in any private or communal area including bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens and all internal social spaces. Designated smoking areas can be found outside the building.

All drug use, including the use of Laughing Gas, is prohibited at their properties.

    What Do I do if I am Not Totally Satisfied?

    They hope you will love living with them but there may be times when they don’t always get it right. They take all complaints seriously and will try their best to fix any issues the first time. If you need help and advice, please speak with your General Manager first. To view their complaints procedure please download this guide.

    Can I pay in instalments?

    For more information on payment plans, refer to the policy section above, or contact your amber agent for assistance.

    What Behaviour / Conduct is Expected of Me?

    Summary curated from web
    Situated in a convenient location with easy accessibility, this accommodation offers well-designed rooms with some storage limitations. The property hosts events but lacks a sociable atmosphere. Residents appreciate the cleanliness, amenities, and supportive staff, despite some issues like a non-functional elevator and tight sockets. The building features spacious kitchens and newer dormitories close to dining options and emphasizes safety awareness.
