Darley Bank is such a safe and convenient accommodation to stay in. So much so that, I have decided to stay here for the rest the years of my degree. I am a student who moved away from Ireland to study so, I was quite picky with accommodation. The cleanliness in Darley Bank is often top tier. The staff are extremely helpful, kind and patient with the students who live here. The staff go above and beyond and are always willing to help you settle in & be comfortable. I am so lucky that I got Darley Bank as my first choice as I would not have known how excellent it is. I recommend that Darley Bank is anyone’s first choice when applying for halls.

Darley bank is a very lovely accommodation, I am enjoying staying here. The rooms are a good size and the bed has storage underneath. The kitchen is spacious and comes with a kettle, a microwave, and cleaning items. The staff members are really lovely and supportive, available in times of help and enthusiastic at all times to offer service. I really like the location of Darley bank because it's not too far away from the university, the city centre and shops, most areas are walking distances which is very convenient. I also like how emails are sent out in advance when there are any services that need to be carried out, such as checking the water or collections of sanitary bins. I recommend Darley bank and I myself will be staying next year too.
Wow - thank you for that top score for Darley Bank. You have really summed up most of the advantages of living in this great hall of residence, but for people who don't know, here are a couple more to add to the list. It's close to the Unibus stop, there are two supermarkets just a few minutes walk away and it's got some lovely green spaces to hang out in when the weather is nice.
Excellent student residence, feels like your second home. The managers and the Hall Manager are always at your disposal for any problems or if you need anything. The environment is harmonious and you can study in complete silence. The facilities and services as well as the laundry room are always organized and clean. The location of the building is in the heart of the centre so it is easy to shop and you can walk around at any time without fear. I am personally very happy to have stayed in such an organized and well-kept dormitory as a student!
Thanks for that great score for Darley Bank. We’re glad you're enjoying your stay.

Thank you once again for your great feedback.

Thanks for your lovely feedback.
Lovely accommodation with fantastic people. Staff are always friendly and more than happy to help. I’ve enjoyed spending my second and third year of university at the accommodation. The kitchens are massive much bigger than expected and more than enough room to cook with everyone in the flat, I love the social sofas in the kitchen as well they are lovely. Only downside I would say is that the wifi does go down sometimes but it’s always been fixed ASAP. Other than that is been fantastic.
