The location of Ayton House is its best asset as it is 5 minutes away from the beach and very close to university buildings as well. The maintenance team always responds quickly, and everyone working here has been nothing but kind and helpful during my 3 years living here.

Generally quite good, but sometimes the reception closes too early
Thank you so much for leaving us a review. If you ever need to pop to reception the opening hours are 8am - 8pm. There is also an emergency number that you call too if needed (the number is displayed next to reception).
It is an amazing place with a gym and social area. The staff are always friendly and keep standard incredibly high. However the location is quite far from town which is an issue.
Thank you so much for leaving such a great review, it means a lot to us :)

We are so grateful for your amazing review, thank you! Having the beach just 5 minutes away is perfect to switch off from a long day at uni! We love that you have been living with us for 3 years too and we hope you continue to enjoy your experience living at Ayton House.
The staff are incredibly friendly and hard working, I have never had an issue with them. My only real gripe about living in Ayton House is with the circuit laundry system, it is very expensive (£5.50 minimum for a wash and dry - on the lowest wash setting), and the facilities are limited to around 4 washers and 4 dryers for the whole building.
Hi there, thank you for your kind words about our team at St Andrews! As Circuit is a separate company we work with we work with their pricings and can't make changes to this unfortunately. We will always look at improving the avaiable facilities at our properties and this will be mentioned!
My experience has been overall very positive. The staff is kind, attentive and helpful. My only complaints revolve around the number of washers/dryers (4 of each) and the lack of ovens in the studios.
Thank you so much for your review - we're so glad you're having a positive experience living with us and find your accommodation team kind and helpful. We also appreciate your further feedback on the washers/dryers and ovens!
Ayton House is a great place to live close to the Uni.

Overall good property. The staff is incredibly helpful and by far the best part of living here, any problems I have had have been fixed very quickly. The kitchen is not the best and sometimes causes issues like shutting down my flat's electricity. WiFi and cellphone network reception are not always reliable. With this in mind it's quite expensive for what it is, though infinitely better than student halls for a similar price.

Great experience! Good location! Friendly and helpful staff!
Thank you very much for your awesome review :)
I love this place for many reasons. When I first asked for help in reception desk, actually it was not a big deal but they responded me fast and solved my problem. And I haven’t reversed the jet lag during that time so that my language is not so fluent. But they understood and showed great patience to communicating with me, which comforts me a lot in a foreign country.
This makes us so happy - we're so glad you felt that your accommodation team were quick to help when you first arrived, hopefully that helped you feel at home quicker. We hope you're having the best time living in Ayton House! Thank you so much for your review!
I had an good experience staying at Ayton house. The building was morden and well-maintained, with all the amenities I need to make my stay comfortable.
We are so glad that you've had a good experience living in Ayton house :) thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review, we really appreciate it.
Nice location, friendly staff. Lots of events throughout the year. Multiple types of rooms depending on ehat you need/perfer. Only problem I have is silly people pulling the fire alarm :p

Ayton House is probably the nicest student accommodation in St Andrews and I'm really happy I picked this place to live.

Staff so nice, really homely, would come back again
This is great to hear - thank you so much for leaving us a great review.
Lovely staff, Caroline is amazing! Great customer service experience. The accommodation itself is super close to the beach, which is great for an afternoon walk and very close to the town centre and my campus. I have all the amenities I need in my studio and I love all the social spaces like the common room and the study room. Everyone was so welcoming when I moved in. Superb experience for me so far!
Reading your review has put a huge smile on our faces - thank you so much. Caroline will be over the moon with your feedback too! We're glad you're enjoying the location, amenities and social spaces. We hope you continue to have a superb experience living with us.
The facilities really outperform most of their school accommodations plus good location - only hope is that the reception can get enough staff and keep the quality up!
We really appreciate you taking the time to leave such an amazing review - and don't worry, the awesome team at Ayton House will always keep providing an excellent service for our lovely residents.

It's much more closer to the town centre, compared with the last accommodation I’d been although further away from the uni. But closer to the town makes the walk much more interesting.
Thank very much for taking the time to leave such a great review :)
Great studio for myself, bit pricey but excellent location.
Thank you so much for your awesome review :)
