Lovely staff, great location - dead quiet almost all the time, but super close to the Selly train station and Sainsburys. The cluster rooms are very good value (honestly would say the ensuite is the best of all UoB student accoms) and even when things do go wrong, maintainance is super prompt and friendly. Big reccomendation. Has been an excellent experience.

So brilliant, had amazing times with friends and family
Nice next to the canal but quite a walk from campus
I will totally recommend you to choose selly oak court. I love its location. Although not in the most prosperous place, it is close to supermarkets and shops. It is in a beautiful and quiet environment, I enjoyed my time walking on the canal and playing with the geese. The room is perfect and cost-effective. The study room and fitness room mean a lot to me too, especially during the lockdown. Finally, Chris is great! He is so kind and warm-hearted. I cherish every day I spent in selly oak court.
Thank you for the review. We are really glad you enjoyed it here, also happy to know other people like the geese! There were a lot fo baby ones this year it seemed which is always nice.
Everything is perfect in selly oak court. It is in a quiet and beautiful environment however not too far from the shops and supermarkets. The room is cost-effective. And I love the study place most! Chris is warm-hearted and kind. You won’t be regretful if choosing selly oak court!
Thank you so much for the review. We are really glad you enjoyed it here!
I am genuinely so happy that I chose this accommodation. The managers are genuinely lovely. Maintenance is really friendly and funny and always ready to help. Chris is very attentive and helpful no matter what the issue or query is. All my friends in other accommodations pay much more than me and they always say they wish they stayed at Selly Oak Court, it’s worth every penny and after my year abroad I will most likely be coming back. It has exceeded my expectations.
Thank you so much for the review, we are really glad you like it here. We really hope you enjoy your year aborad and would love to wlecome you back to Selly Oak Court! - Chris
I think the wifi is not very good.Sometimes it dropped down when I am having classes, also I think the desks in the study room need to be changed becasue some of them are broken
Hi, thank you so much for the feedback. We are upgrading the speed moving into the 2021/22 academic year anyway (from 50mbps to 200mbps), but if it is dropping frequently it's probably an issue with your local access point. If you come and see us at reception we will help you fix this (sorry StudentCrowd doesn't give us your name so you will have to come and see us). It's also good feedback on the desks, we will make sure they are replaced shortly. - Chris
Chris is amazing! Very modern. We like the games section, particularly the four in a row. Study room is good! Safe in terms of security. Nice lounge. Very good maintenance. Booked for next year too!
Thank you so much for the review and for booking for next year. Grab us next time you go through reception and we can play connect 4! - Chris
It is really a perfect apartment that gives me a homecoming experience. I met a lot of friends here and my neighbors are all very friendly and warmhearted. We built snowmen in the yard, which was our best memory during the lockdown.
Thank you so much for the review. I saw your snowman in the garden, it looked great! - Chris
Chris the manager is really nice and very accommodating. The internet is really bad at times. It is close to the train station and Sainsbury’s but 20min walk to edge of uni.
Thank you so much for your review. I'm sorry you are having issues with the internet, we are upgrading it moving into next year anyway (from 50mbps to 200mbps) but if you are having issues it's probably a problem with your local access point. If you come and see us at reception we can help fix this for you (sorry, we can't see your name on Student Crowd so can't contact you ourselves). - Chris
It’s one of the best student halls nearby to the University of Birmingham offering great services, nice atmosphere and excellent rooms suitable for every need. I have availed the facility of a studio apartment in Selly Oak Court which is self sufficient and exactly as per a students’ need. Need not worry about anything, the staff is more than happy and willing to help in every moment (especially the Manager). Security is great and one can feel absolutely safe inside the premises.
Thank you so much for the review. I will also pass the feedback onto the security team. - Chris
The overall experience is good
Thank you so much for the review! - Chris
The staff are really friendly and supportive,especially during the covid period. Even at times when the social atmosphere was bad,I could always go speak to them about anything. The maintenance staff is really efficient as well. The spaces are kept clean and nice. The only issue was the wifi but the manager,Chris helped me call the company and that was resolved quickly. No complaints from me :)
Thank you so much for the review. We want you to know that it's not been a one way street, talking to you all has really helped me and the rest of the team through this difficult period. - Chris
The manager of the selly oak court is the asset of the accmmodation. He helps students a lot and helds many funny events too. Flats are more reasonable but studios are good for worry free uni life
Thank you so much for the review. We are really glad you enjoy the events, now lockdown restrictions are easing we hope to do a lot more of them! - Chris
ive stayed in this place for four years and i love it, clean, safe and wonderful staff, i would stay longer if i could sort termly contracts or monlthy contracts but i love it here
Thank you so much for the review. We wish you could stay for longer it's just tricky with how academic years work. - Chris
