Less security cameras, Anyone could sneak in, social area is very noisy
Hi there, thank you for taking the time to leave a review about your experience at Hillfort House. We have over 40 security cameras in place to ensure the protection of our residents along with 5 points of entrance/exit from the building and all doors and gates are self-closing, to restrict any non-residents that have not been invited to visit from entering our accommodation. We would encourage you to report any incidences of unauthorised access to your property team as soon as possible, if they happen to occur. I’m sorry to hear the social area has felt too noisy for you. We want all residents to enjoy our facilities. Our property team are always available for you to discuss this matter with and they will assist in any ways they can, if appropriate. Many thanks – Student Roost
I am leaving in this accommodation as a student and we are lacking to find entertaining facilities e.g (table tennis…etc) and I hope you guys improve that
Hi there, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. I'm sorry to hear you felt dissatisfied with the entertainment facilities at Hillfort House. We use all resident feedback to further improve our services for current and future residents. - Student Roost
It’s good value for the price I would recommend to someone that needs a student accommodation.
Hi there, thank you so much for the positive feedback. We really appreicate you taking the time to leave us a review! - Student Roost
I genuienly like the building and the staff creates a very safe social environment. My only recommendation, which is a big one too, is that student roost and study group runs background checks on the residents. People with an extense criminal record shouldn't be allowed to live in the building for the safety of the other residents.

Hillfort House is amazing place during your studies. Especially the events they organise for students. Last I attended the dog therapy session, that really helped me.
Hi , Thanks for the feedback - we are working really hard this year to deliver a program of events which will appear to all and the dogs are a real winner. We're glad you enjoyed and we're hoping to invite them back early next year . PC

Good morning , I was delighted to read your feedback and how much you would recommend us - We strive to make our students feel welcome and great to hear you enjoy our social events. PC
If you like overpriced, poorly run student accommodation this is the place for you. One of the worst experiences of students halls of residence I've ever had! The whole experience from start to finish was an absolute nightmare from frankly disgusting communal areas, a quite frankly unsafe approach to fire safety, broken doors, noisy neighbours and ran by a company who don't have a central customer complaints department. Would definitely not recommend - if you want a more realistic picture of living here, just have a look at the google reviews.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review on your experience at Student Roost. I’m so sorry to hear about your experience and the issues you encountered during your stay. We always want to hear feedback from our residents on how we can improve our services and the living experience for all residents. I thank you for sharing your feedback with us so we can strive to make further improvements to the actions we have already put in place to tackle cleanliness , littering and anti-social behaviour. Any resident found to be breaking the terms of their tenancy agreement and taking part in anti-social behaviour are reported to the police and their university. There was an issue with the fire alarms over the winter period which have since been reviewed so you should not find this a constant source of disturbance If there are other issues you would like to raise, or any other feedback you wish to share with us, you can complete our Feedback and Complaints form here - https://www.studentroost.co.uk/feedback-and-complaints Thank you again for taking the time to leave a review. We use all feedback, good and bad, to further improve our services

Comfortable room. There were a few bad apples that have been let go. I am extending. Cleaning and maintenance personnel are very pleasant people. Those in reception are friendly. New management is more than competent.

It's an amazing and serene places with an affordable price.The staff are very welcoming and kind and you can make lots of friends.

Amazing staff. Always there to help.
Thanks for the review - Its lovely to hear how great you think our staff are
It's all good; the staffs are understanding and kind; the social places are nice; but it's expensive and I wish there was someone to help us with cleaning the kitchen and corridor of the flats once a month
Thanks for the feedback - its lovelt to hear you like the staff , we do offer a paid cleaning service - If you see the team at reception they will be able to provide more detail . PC
great facility with easy access to uni campuses. Only fault is the very many late night fire alarms that went off many times
Thanks for the feedback , we know there were problems with the alarm which is always a pain , we've been assured this is all resolved so you should be having peaceful nights now . PC
I love the management. They are really friendly which makes me feel at ease.
Thanks for the great feedback - The management will be delighted to hear they are loved :)
The overall experience is really good the location is really beautiful and calm and next to the universities, next to the bus stopes . But far from the city centre but buses are always available from the nearest bus stop which is like a min away from the accommodation. Fully satisfied
Thanks for the feedback - Glad you feel satisfied , Brighton has great public transport services so we hope you enjoy you bus trips into the City. PC
