This hall seems to be quite isolating, especially, if you don’t have a car, with lack of supermarkets, restaurants, takeaways nearby. Is there anything nearby worth visiting?

Only major problem is the wifi often cuts out at random times and can sometimes be rather jittery, we also have no idea when during the time period that maintenance is going to come by and sometimes they don’t knock but still good nonetheless

Buchanan View is a great place to stay and has allowed me to meet so many amazing people. However, I would have to say that the social spaces in Buchanan view could be a lot bigger and better for how many people live at this accommodation. Additionally, there should be more than one or at least one sofa that fits at least 5 people to ensure comfortable socialising in the flat. I have found that the sofas provided only fit 3 people (at a push) and therefore does not provide comfortable seating for all 5 flatmates.

This place is the WORST to live in. The staff are so rude to paying residents in the building and have no manners. The older woman that wears glasses especially has a bad attitude and often shouts at people living here unnecessarily. I would compare living here to a prison. There are far better other Student Roosts that cater to students better. Buchanan View barely has a social space and it’s incredibly hard to make friends. They also placed me in a flat with men when I had requested for an all girls flat. I am a 19 year old girl and felt highly uncomfortable when I first arrived due to this reason and they refused to change my flat at first. I was also put in a flat of international students as I have a unique name. I believe that this was racially motivated and they do not take any other factor into consideration when allocating people into flats. I feel incredibly anxious living here and will not be extending my stay to next year.

Overall a very pleasant place to live. There could definitely be more fridge space, cheaper uni accommodations have two whereas ours it’s very limited. A second sofa would be nice, perhaps in place of a smaller dining table - this would create a more sociable, comfortable living space. Staff are lovely and very attentive, can’t fault them at all. A regular cleaner would be excellent, all other uni accommodations have an external cleaner at least once a month (again at a cheaper price). Also, the laundry service is very expensive

Helena, Jackie, and Emily have all been so great throughout my time here. They’re always friendly and helpful and it makes going to reception a great experience! I definitely feel safe at the complex since everything is opened by a key card. The location isn’t the greatest just because there aren’t restaurants across the street or stores to shop at, but a Tesco isn’t too far and the city center is just a 10-15 minute walk. I heard they did fitness classes last year here and I’d love for those to happen this year if possible

Buchanan View is one of the best student accommodations, I would suggest, one, it is quite within the reach/proximity of unis like Strathclyde and Glasgow Caledonian, two, closer to the city centre, three, very economical(being a student, I consider this one of the top most priorities), four, the management is quite proactive and helpful.

Miles off the standards compared to week-1. Didn't resolve issues at pool table for months even after lodging complaints for weeks. Took 3-4 months to replace refrigerator. Receptionists duck the complaints lodged by saying to wear a mask. Received racist/inappropriate comments when requested a help. When requested for an apology they didn't even get back to it. Barge into your room for checking when you are sleeping or out somewhere. In short tricked us with the false views and perceptions of maintainence during the early week.

Very good value for money, would definitely recommend to anyone studying in Glasgow! Staff were always happy to help and were always friendly when I went down to reception to collect parcels etc. Excellent location within Glasgow with nearby shops and student facilities all within a 10 minute walking distance. 10/10 experience

Really clean and large enough rooms. Cheapest accommodation within a good location. I’m a Cali student but it’s good for Strathclyde too rooms are nice and clean and the bathrooms are a good size. Loads of storage especially under bed. Staff are lovely too and will help literally 24/7. Sad about the price increase next year but I’m staying again in the same room. Kitchens are amazing

I have just moved in as an international student and the management has been below par. Despite completing my induction online in advance and arriving at the set time I had allocated, I could not get into the property and had to get a fellow student to use their key card to let me in. Upon arrival, my key and induction pack was not prepared and the usage of the key was not explained to me. I again, had to ask a student to help me. I was told that it would be safe for me to quarantine within my room in the building, but assistance was poor. I ordered food online to be delivered, only for the food to not be accepted on my behalf and subsequently resulting in me having to reorder and leave my room to fetch the delivery. I went down to the reception to enquire about my covid test having been delivered and was only told then that I was not permitted to leave my room. I was advised instead to email the reception about deliveries. Emails were not responded to in a timely manner.

Everything that they promised would be provided was there and they were of very good quality. Some key things were. 1. New mattress cover, cleaned rooms, lots of storage space including underbed storage that can accommodate 2 big suitcases, good lighting, furniture. Very fast wifi, ethernet port. 2. A good kitchen with facilities like oven, toaster, kettle, cleaning items, iron and stand, vacuum cleaner etc. (all being good quality products). 3. Very friendly staff. The flats are accessed with a unique key card so no one can get into your room without your key card and so there's privacy and safety. Rent is paid monthly which is also good. 4. The best thing is how close everything is. Strathclyde University, Glasgow Cathedral, city centre and also many other student accommodations. Everything is within a walking distance. 5. The common area has pool, foosball, TV, Playstation etc. A few friends who share flat told me how they wished they booked an ensuite here earlier instead.

Buchanan View is a really good place to stay. The staff are always helpful, they take time to get to know their residents and always say hello whenever you're walking past. They go above and beyond to resolve any issues whether it be about the halls of residence or room mates or any maintenance issues which get resolved very quickly, sometimes within the hour on some occasions and I have been really pleased with my interactions with staff here and would highly recommend Buchanan View and give it a ten out of ten!

Worst student accommodation in Glasgow, paper-thin walls with no noise cancellation and located right behind the M8 motorway. Rude staff, rude people and with all honestly it's been the worst place I've ever lived in my life. I wouldn't stay there even if the rent was free or even if they paid me to.

I stayed in Buchanan View for my second year. In my application I stated that I would like to be placed with people the same age/ year of study as me. However I got placed with people who were complete opposite of me (doing postgrad etc) and they were all from the same country making me the odd one out. I asked to switch flats as the flatmates I was currently with did not interact with me whatsoever and it was making my halls experience very lonely, however did this not happen. I did not make a single friend at buchanan view for this reason. Furthermore, I got an early release due to COVID-19 and found it extremely hard to get a refund for the rent I paid in advance (in fact it has now been 4 months since vacating the premises and I have still not gotten anywhere) Of course, this is only my personal experience. On a positive note, I will say that the staff at reception and the maintenance team were always super friendly.

I had a good year here with friends I moved in with from last year. It was great having access to maintenance so easily and always having someone in reception. Being close to uni was great. Sometimes security wasn't great as my boyfriends bike got stolen but other than that it was a secure place to stay. The constant maintenance was sometimes quite disruptive.

They have a great rebooker offers every year too. See you all next year!

Buchanan view is just 5 minutes walk from GCU and only 10 minutes walk to Buchanan Galleries, making it an ideal place to stay. Plus with double beds and en-suite facilities, I feel this is a great alternative to Caledonian Court - the university’s own halls of residence.

Not value for money at all. £122+ per week. The fact that the payments come out in a minimum of 8 payments meant that a lot of us couldn't barely afford it because £600+ was coming out of our accounts at once. If you want us to live there for 10 months, charge us monthly. Not very good when dealing with complaints. My flat mate was stealing from me but when we went to complain they did nothing about it. Also the fact that Buchanan View is a non-smoking accommodation but everyone smoked in the flats which was more that disrespectful to the other students living there. And again, when a complaint was made, nothing was done about it. The fact the rent is so high yet we have to pay for a laundry service at £4.50 per every wash and dry. The point that this is a student accommodation means that you know that we have limited funds and you are just making it harder. I thought the staff at Buchanan View were lovely people but they could have done a better job at doing their jobs.

It has overall been good, although due to changes in staff team meant that the staff weren't familiar with the premises and additional training needs to be provided with staff who are new to the job.
