Amazing location, very friendly and helpful staff, especially Paul at reception and Angie who maintains causeway at an amazing standard. Also the WiFi is really good and you get around 80Mb/s usually, which I’m really surprised considering it’s student accommodation- so you wouldn’t have any problems downloading lectures or playing games ;) The rooms are also the best ones you’ll find for uni and having someone to help open your door if you’ve lost your key at any time at night ( a Uni tradition) is a life safer. All in all I can’t recommend this place enough, has made first year better considering how Covid has affected most other factors.

We are so happy to hear you’ve enjoyed your time at Causeway View! During the pandemic, we have tried our best to make sure everyone has the best experience possible even though most things have been moved online. Our reception and housekeeping teams will be so pleased that you enjoyed all their hard work and effort. We work with our partner Glide on providing the fastest and most stable WiFi possible and we are glad to hear you’ve been able to use this to the fullest extent – both for your studies and for recreational use. Our safety team work very hard to ensure they are on-site within fifteen minutes, meaning no student is locked out of their room at night for any longer than necessary as your safety is our highest priority. Thank you so much for your generous feedback and we hope to make all our future students’ experiences as successful as yours! - Ellen
I have been living at Causeway View for a year so far and I would recommend this property to anyone I knew knowing full well that they would be more that satisfied with their experience here also. the property is beautiful inside and out. the staff are so lovely and friendly, for example, a staff member who helped me today (Gen) made conversation with me and helped me with such grace and kindness. I have planned on staying here next year also and I hope it will be as great as this year!
It is so encouraging for us to hear that you enjoyed your time with us at Causeway View! Our newest property, it is a fifteen-minute walk to the University of Aberdeen with bus links to Robert Gordon University, and close to big supermarkets as well as the city centre. Our staff endeavour to create an as welcoming and supportive atmosphere as possible and will be so happy to know that their efforts paid off. Thank you so much for your kind words, which we will pass along to Gen who will be over the moon, and we hope your next year with us is equally as positive as the last! - Ellen
This year has been awful at causeway. They hired security, fair enough, but the security got a bit power hungry and started asking for not only your key card but your unite app too and if you couldn’t show both then they wouldn’t let you in?? My flat complained numerous times about our neighbours keeping us up through the night, all unite did was send them an email. This didn’t help the situation at all. For most of my stay the gym and social areas have been closed, which is due to government guidelines. But unite are money hungry and haven’t offered any kind of discount for those facilities not being useable, like the printer. Wifi goes down all the time, a friend in another flat doesn’t even have strong enough wifi to do her online lectures. Wifi was down for the good part of 2 days leaving me unable to complete an exam, no apology/refund/discount. Personally, not the best place to stay. Not enough characters left to be able to explain the rest but don’t stay here,not worth it
We are very sorry to hear that you had a less than ideal experience at Causeway View this year. While student safety is our number one priority, the behaviour noted here by the security team is not acceptable and your feedback will be passed along to ensure this does not happen again. Our safety team do their very best to respond to noise complaints and our on-site team then follow up with the flats. Our partner Glide is responsible for our Wi-Fi and does its best to provide stable and high-speed internet. If you would like to get in contact with them, their details can be found here. Our on-site gym and social areas were closed due to government guidelines, the adherence to which was of vital importance to us to stop the spread of Covid-19. They are included in the price of the accommodation as a perk and we do not charge extra for their use. Thank you for your feedback which is invaluable to us and encourages us to further better our service. If you would like to further discuss any of these issues you can contact us at aberdeen@unitestudents.com - Ellen
Great central location in the city (you can easily walk to practically anywhere you want to go). Only 5 mins from two big supermarkets and an extra 10 mins to another.

Cleansing during COVID is shocking, same cloth getting used on all unite properties, loud parties every night that unite refuse to do anything about, WiFi only works in certain areas.

Great location, helpful staff and the bonus of a gym on-site. Relaxed atmosphere I found to be homely and welcoming.
Rude staff, maintenance issues not resolved - reported 3 times and still not fixed. Overall safety of the building is a joke. Fires keep getting started in corridors yet the fire alarms don’t activate despite the smell of smoke throughout the building. Overall experience makes prison life seem like a more humane experience than living at causeway view.
The rooms are modern and spacious, lots of common area for hanging out and studying, an equipped gym on site with no extra charge. Staff on site day and night are friendly and helpful - a fantastic experience.
