Student halls
Student halls are usually managed buildings with rooms, studios or shared flats. They can suit students who want a social building and easier setup.
Shared student houses

Student studios
Studios usually give students their own private space, including sleeping, studying, bathroom and kitchen facilities in one room.
Quick student accommodation checklist
Before enquiring, paying a deposit or signing anything, students should compare the basics clearly.
Check the location properly
Look at distance to university, bus routes, walking time, nearby shops, food spots and whether the area suits your daily routine.
Check what is included
Ask whether bills, Wi-Fi, contents insurance or maintenance are included, and compare the real monthly cost, not just weekly rent.
Read the tenancy basics
Check contract length, deposit amount, guarantor requirements, cancellation rules, repairs process and who manages the property.
Think beyond the weekly rent
The cheapest room is not always the best option. Students should compare overall cost, location, contract terms and what is included.
Weekly rent
Weekly rent is the starting point, but students should also think about how many weeks the contract runs for and what the full yearly cost becomes.
Bills included or separate?
Some student accommodation includes bills, while other properties require students to arrange gas, electricity, water, broadband or council tax checks.
Deposits and upfront costs
Before paying anything, check the deposit amount, whether it is protected, what the holding payment means and when money is refundable.
