Most helpful review

Been here since September, I can't really complain much at all. Everything is running smoothly and I love the interaction with the staff, they always seem very helpful and will actually take their time to help you whenever you need or just have a good chat with you, especially Sam and Alex, always catch a great laugh with them, never a dull moment. I can't fault any of them in any way whatsoever. Keep up the good work lads!!!

The best accomodation I’ve ever witnessed, the staff are the best bit, 24/7 reception support by the best members ever! Alex, Sam and Jim ensure that everyone gets the best support and experience, without them pier quays wouldn’t be the same.

Overall a good place but what makes it great is the night staff people, Alix, Jim and Sam are great people and they are there for the laughs or serious conversations when needed. They are an asset to the place and need promotions or a pay rise

The Staff at Pier Quays have always been exceptionally helpful to me, especially in accomodating room transfers and helping with general questions, definitely helping to ease some of my worries around living in student accommodation and around noise concerns.

1. This is Pier Quays Medway. Since I moved there’s been construction works and drilling in the buildings. Really noisy, and difficult to study! 2. The Wi-Fi sometimes doesn’t work at night and the heaters stopped working at some point.

No study or group zone for students. Shower room is badly designed and too small for most people. Shower head shoot water out of the bath area. No one cleans the room.
