Lovely modern building with spacious, comfortable rooms and great storage space. Really close to Cameron Toll, Kings Buildings, and loads of bus connections to all over Edinburgh, including the Royal Infirmary. The staff are incredibly friendly, helpful, and approachable, always putting students first whether it be a broken utility, or simply for a chat! Even through these times, they put on great virtual events for the residents. Would absolutely recommend to any student looking for a quiet, comfortable, cozy, and reasonably priced place to live during their studies!

Nice single studio with strong WiFi and good size to it. Also in a good location as well as only 5 min walks to both Kings building campus and Cameron Toll Shopping centre

Thank you for your kind review! We are pleased you have enjoyed your stay at Goods Corner, we are very lucky that it is situated so close to Kings Buildings and has great amenities right next door! Thanks, Fiona.
This is currently my second year in this accomodation and i can comfortably say i am pleased with it. It is one of the better if not best looking sudent accomodations in Edinburgh and if you study at Kings campus the location is great. All the onsite staff have been very friendly and helpful along the way, i would highly recommend this place.

Wow! Thank you so much for such a kind review! We are delighted that you are having such a fantastic stay with us, we are very lucky that the site is situated so close to the Kings Buildings! Thanks, Fiona
I have been here for almost two years The price is the best in comprising to other students accommodations in Edinburgh The location is perfect, two bus stations are no more than 3 min walking and 15 min from KB as well Cameron toll with many stores and GP are within 10 mins on foot Alex is great and always helps and tries his best in making our experience in the accommodation good and enjoyable I would love if they could do more of social activities such as BBQ Wejdan

Thank you very much for such a kind review. We are delighted that you are enjoying staying at Goods Corner. Being so close to Kings Buildings and so many great amenities is great for anyone staying at Goods Corner. Thank you for your feedback regarding events, we host regular social events throughout the year so keep an eye out on social media to see what we have planned or ask at reception! Thanks, Fiona.
This is a very good student accommodation which is very close to KB campus of the UoE. It is very convenient to live here, as the supermarket is just near it and you can walk to KB campus in five minutes. But the social experience is not very good as there are only studios in this flat and common room is not very big. Totally, I am satisfied with the experience here.

Thank you for leaving such a great review! We aim to host regular social events during the year which is always a great way to meet new people! Thank you, Fiona.
I’ve been living in this accommodation for almost a year now. Its such a convenient place to be, especially if you’re studying at kings building campus. Ever since i moved in, the place has felt very homey, the staff is all very friendly and love a chat so you never feel alone. All of the staff members have at one point or another gone above and beyond to help me and make me comfortable and I’m very thankful for it. The common area is great and a good place to make friends. I made some amazing friends when using the common room.

Thank you for leaving a lovely review! We always aim to create such a postive and homely enviroment for our students at Goods Corner so we are delighted to hear you have felt right at home. Thanks, Fiona.
I spent two years here in the same room. I had a luxurious room and had plenty of people envy me especially for the price i paid. I was also lucky as I got a room facing the yard and I always appreciated the view as the seasons come and go. I have no complaints on the wifi, cleaning or security. But I would love to highlight the meaningful conversations I get to have in the mornings as I leave for classes, with Hannah, Alex, Grant or Yaseen. They were delightful and I would like to thank them publicly here.

Thank you for leaving such a kind review! We are over the moon you had such a postive experience staying at Goods Corner over the past two years. Thank you, Fiona.
I stayed in Goods Corner for 2 years and would highly recommend anyone studying in Edinburgh consider staying here. Staff are absolute class, they go out of their way to help and are always up for a chat. When there are any issues, they're always very informative and transparent. The rooms have surprisingly copious storage space and a well equipped kitchen. Internet is quality, each room has its own fibre internet connection. The communal areas are pretty good too, with a ping pong table in the common room and a few TVs. Facilities are excellent in Cameron Toll. There's a shopping center just a few minutes walk away with supermarkets, coffee shops, chemist, banks and a gym. Goods Corner is ideal for students at the University of Edinburgh as it is just a few minutes walk from Kings and there are excellent bus routes into town. As the Covid-19 pandemic took off in the UK, staff were on the ball: we were kept well informed and measures were put in place to help keep everyone safe.

Thank you for leaving such a kind review! We at Goods Corner are thrilled you enjoyed your stay over the two years, we always aim to create a positive and friendly enviroment here for all of our students! Thanks, Fiona.
The location of this accommodation is superb as it is across from Cameron Toll - a shopping centre, and a 10min walk from Kings building. These factors definitely help make things easier. The rooms may initially be daunting but once personalized and you are settled in, are great. The staff is very friendly, approachable and offer their advice and assistance to the best of their ability. They also acknowledge holidays/traditions celebrated here and also by students. I would definitely recommend this accommodation.

Thank you for leaving such a nice review! We are very lucky that Goods Corner is situated so close to the Kings Buildings and a great shopping centre. We always aim to have a varity of social events for everyone to enjoy. Thank you, Fiona.
My name is Brandon and I have been staying here for the past year. The best thing about this place would definitely have to be the staff, there has been some changes here and there but generally all the staff are super nice and very helpful. I know all of them by name and they always try to do something just for some comfort especially when you are having a boring day. It is one of the better priced studios compared to others in Edinburgh, as it is further away from the city but not too bad for what you get. The location may be further from the city but the buses are literally right outside the building so I would say very convenient. The sainsbury in Cameron Toll is only 3 minutes walk away so groceries or late night snacks are not really a problem. The place is always cleaned regularly and any issues are solved very quickly and answers are always given for whatever issues you may have. There is table tennis and big TVs that you can use to have switch parties, netflix partiesetc
Covid-19: they have been increasing the cleaning and wiping down surfaces, as well as reducing staff at the front desk to reduce social contact, great stuff all around.

Thank you for leaving us such a lovely review! We are absolutely over the moon you had such a fantastic time staying at Goods Corner, we are slightly outwith the city centre however we have fantastic amenties right next door and are well connected with frequent bus links to the city. Thanks, Fiona
Hi , My name is Shihab and i been in goods corner now for the second year and as a Ph.D. student in the University of Edinburgh, Goods Corner has helped me to sleep well and save the time of 3 minutes walk to School of engineering. The goods corner management is really professional and they are keen to listen to us, the tenants. I would highly reecommend goods corner to any student who loves a peaceful; secure and clean space :) .
Covid-19: The management team has strictly advised us about the best practices during the outbreak.

Thank you very much for leaving such a lovely review! We are extremely pleased you had such a positive experience residing at Goods Corner. We are very lucky that the Kings Buildings is just a short walk from Goods Corner so it makes it an ideal location for students to stay there while studying at Kings Buildings! Thank you, Fiona.
