Considering how much rent I pay monthly, I expect to have a working shower and fridge, yet these two things were so unreliable throughout my entire stay. My fridge/ freezer defrosted several times, meaning I had to throw out food that had defrosted/ spoiled and repurchase these things, putting me at a financial loss through no fault of my own. I complained about the fridge freezer several times, and instead of replacing it, it is just ‘fixed’ but then it breaks within a matter of weeks again. My shower is only warm half of the times that I use it, and I frequently have to have freezing cold showers which is awful. My room is always so cold, to the point I had to purchase a space heater because my chronic asthma was flaring up due to the cold, this heater was then confiscated and I am now shivering in my room everyday. My room has mould growing and is always damp despite leaving my bathroom fan on almost constantly, and with a mould allergy this is making me very ill
Hello, We're sorry to hear about the inconveniences you've experienced during your stay at Farmers Hall Lodge. We understand the importance of reliable amenities, and we sincerely apologize for any frustrations caused by the issues with the shower and fridge/freezer. To address your concerns effectively, we kindly request that you please reach out to us directly at aberdeen@everystudent.co.uk. Your feedback is invaluable to us, and we want to ensure that we promptly resolve any issues you may be facing. We will prioritize addressing the problems with the fridge/freezer and the shower to ensure they are in proper working condition.

We want to assure you that we have taken steps to address heating concerns across all of our sites, including upgrading the heating system and increasing temperatures up to 26 degrees in the colder months.

Thank you for bringing these matters to our attention, and we look forward to assisting you in resolving them promptly. Take care, Poppy

With Every Student, it’s very affordable for what it is. I have a flat with an ensuite bathroom and a shared kitchen for the floor. When I first arrived, I was given a tour and greeted by Zhanna, who works at reception. She is so kind and does a great job! The staff here are all incredibly sweet and make you feel very well welcomed. Upon arrival my room was not very clean and neither was the kitchen. I deep cleaned the entirety before settling in which was inconvenient considering I had just got off a 13 hour flight. But the location is great as it is a short walk to uni and Union Street which has a lot of places to go to. The wifi works very well. The heating was replaced to be more sustainable but does not work as effectively to heat the room. I was told there would be someone to clean the kitchen every week which is not correct as no one has come in to clean for the entirety of my living here. All in all, it’s a good place for students to live, I do recommend it.
Hello, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at Farmers Hall Lodge. We sincerely appreciate your valuable feedback and are pleased to hear that you found our location convenient and enjoyed the efficient Wi-Fi service. We apologize for any inconvenience you faced upon your arrival due to the cleanliness of your room and the kitchen. Due to unforeseen circumstances during the preparation of flats for check-in, our cleaning schedule fell behind, with bedrooms taking priority over kitchens, however, our cleaning team has since rectified this by performing a deep clean of all the kitchens. We deeply apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused. We have since had a washup meeting with our cleaning contractor and already have a robust plan in place for next year, to ensure this doesn’t happen again. We understand that this was not an ideal way to begin your stay, especially after a long flight, and we regret any discomfort this may have caused. We are thrilled to hear your positive comments about Zhanna and the rest of our staff. We strive to provide a welcoming and accommodating environment for all our residents, and it is wonderful to know that their efforts have made a positive impact during your stay. Regarding the heating, we have recently replaced the heating systems with energy-saving heaters to support our sustainability efforts. We appreciate your understanding as we continue to improve our sustainability efforts while ensuring a cozy living environment for everyone. We would like to clarify that kitchen cleans are offered once a month as we expect tenants to keep communal areas in the flat clean. However, we ensure that the cleanliness standards are maintained for all other communal areas weekly such as the reception and blocks. Once again, we thank you for your feedback and your recommendation. Please feel free to reach out to us directly if you have any further concerns or if there is anything more we can do to enhance your experience. Best Regards, Poppy

I recently had the opportunity to stay at Farmers Hall Lodge in Aberdeen for a semester, and I'd like to share my overall experience and impressions. While the lodge had its positives, there were also a few drawbacks that impacted my stay. First and foremost, I must highlight the cozy atmosphere of Farmers Hall Lodge. The interior design of the rooms exuded warmth and comfort, making it a pleasant place to return to after a long day of classes. The furnishings were well-maintained, and the bed was comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep. The location of the lodge is another notable aspect. Situated in Aberdeen, it offered easy access to the university campus, local amenities, and public transportation. The proximity to grocery stores, cafes, and restaurants was convenient for meeting daily needs and socializing with fellow students. Additionally, the lodge staff was generally friendly and helpful. They were responsive to maintenance requests and addressed any issues promptly.

The recent wifi updation is awesome, the wifi is very fast. My flat mates are awesome as well, we hang out in the common room and cook, eat and talk for hours . It's just awesome..
The accommodation is very good and neatly maintained. The staffs were so friendly and kind. I recently moved from one room to another, Joseph and Hanna helped me move without any hustle and they were very friendly and helpful. Definitely would recommend this place for future students
Really one of the most affordable accommodation in Aberdeen and the rooms are more than great, very spacious (en-suite). Also well located. The staff Joseph and Hannah are always there to help you with any questions, problems or just to have a chat.
Joseph is superb and very helpful and Hana is so amazing
The accommodation itself is comfortable and on site management, more specifically Hannah and Joseph are accommodating and friendly at all times. Joseph is frequently available for a chat or to receive any concerns. The location is quite great with easy access to essentials and Foresthill Campus.

Great accommodation, incredibly clean and most importantly brilliant wifi speed
Loved, love, loved staying at the lodge!! Very well situated in the city, always kept very clean and the staff are always super friendly & helpful - one of the staff in particular, Joy, was a wee gem <3
Super friendly staff and really nice place to stay. Couldn’t give 5 stars across just because of the effects of Covid-19, but really enjoyable place to live and have a good student social life (even through the pandemic)
Had such a lovely stay here and the staff were super helpful particularly a member by the name of joy Innes was warm and friendly and easy to talk too if I needed help with anything. Would highly recommend staying here

I've been here for 4 years and I'm quite happy with the place. It's great value for money and the location is perfect. It's about 15-20min from the city centre in a very lively neighbourhood - there's all kinds of shops within this proximity and also public transport is within a few mins distance.

Farmers Hall is an amazing place to be. Nice staff members
