Most helpful review

Absolutely loved my stay! Staff are fab and so friendly and always there to help if needed. Loads of opportunities to go on little adventures such as to the Lake District this year, and to meet dogs from the guide dog society in the social space downstairs! Couldn’t complain - great value for money and perfect for a first year student, quick walk to uni, safe, and nice and quiet for sleeping on long shifts at the hospital (for healthcare students I mean!). So quick and easy to report a problem on the MyUnite app like being locked out, if something isn’t working in the flat etc and you are always emailed by the tannery team about any works or maintenance on the building and if any members of staff or contract workers need access to your flat and on the rare occasion your room to fix anything or check safety of fire alarms etc - warned well in advance! With £90 free credit to use the laundry room on the circuit plus app it’s obvious that the tannery actually cares! :)

Are you kidding? The elevator of Block C breaks down almost every week, and it takes a long time to fix it every time. That’s so stupid.

I've thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Tannery so far. The staff at reception are all incredibly lovely - Joseph is a great team leader and Jason and Dan are always there to help on a weekday. Faith and Brianna also do a great job on weekends and I feel secure in knowing that I can talk to them about anything at any time as the reception is open 24 hours! The Tannery may not be the closest to uni or town but it has a lovely social atmosphere and definitely feels like home 😊.

It is close to the university and the room is a spacious, nice size. The bins are easily accessible and not too chaotic which is good. However the windows are quite dirty and you can barely see out. Quite quiet and little opportunity to meet people here but other than that it’s a pleasant place to live.

my experience has overall been okay but personally it’s been dampened by a specific flatmate who doesn’t respect that we all have uni and want to sleep so he plays music very loud most nights till 3/4am and smokes weed in his room. this does get dealt with most of the time by security but it’s taken a while for the warden to get back to us

I have had a great experience meeting lots of new people. I have rarely had an issue except for when the microwave broke but it was changed for a working one the day after meaning we only had a braking one for one night. I had an issue with my WiFi once but spoke to Jason at reception, who is very kind and sociable at all times, and told me how to get the issue resolved. Overall, the cleaning staff and reception are always nice and with the 24/7 service there is always someone to speak to even if it’s after a night out.

The staff at reception are always incredibly helpful and friendly, have not had a bad experience! Always keen to help and have resolved issues quickly and efficiently! The location is a 20 minute walk from the city centre and from the University of Leeds which is not bad at all but it is further than the other uni accommodations, but it has so much close by, so its a good compromise. I would recommend The Tannery for someone that wants to be slightly out of the city centre but close enough to the centre and to university! :)

The oven is rubbish, very slow to heat and cook. Two showers in the same flat has blocked drains, and were unclean when we moved in. Social aspect is good if you make an effort to get to know your flat mates and people who live in the building. Large kitchen and living room space, as well as good heating. It’s located near a good lot of shops and isn’t too far away from the uni (though the stairs are a killer).

By member754291 On 17th February 21 verified Verified student

Having originally applied to Henry Price I was disappointed to get the Tannery, however having lived here for two terms now I can say it is one of the better accommodations to be at during Covid times. I enjoy partying a lot and the Tannery has got it all. Flat parties have been loads of fun here with medium risk as I haven't been fined yet for some big ones but a few friends have been. The tannery is pretty social if you throw yourself in social situations. The courtyard is where most of us meet and find new friends in the first few weeks. Then the common room is a really nice space to work and have fun, im working there now actually. The rooms are cosy and the beds are perfect size being almost double and pretty comfy tbh. The location is something of a concern being 20 min walk uphill from uni (hasn't been a problem since uni hasn't even been open). There is an offlicence near us and a Coop and a nice 15 min walk to aldi. Wifi is decent but some days cuts out. I love it here!

I had a great experience in The Tannery in my first year. It's near to town and uni so you never have to get a bus, the staff are friendly and lenient (good for pres, but bad when you have a 9am the next morning) and the Nisa is so useful. The rooms aren't massive but you definitely have enough room/storage space for everything (coming from someone with a lot of stuff). I've never had an issue with the wifi personally and the cleaning team are reliable and efficient (and hilarious!). All student accommodation is expensive for what you really get, but I think that The Tannery has the most benefits for what you're paying (the double beds are blessed). There are lots of med students at this accommodation, so if you aren't one you have to make a little more effort at the beginning to meet people, but the upside to a high med population is its generally quiet in the week when you need to get work done. Overall I would recommend The Tannery, it ticks all the boxes.

Great location, 10/15 min walk to both campus and the city centre and also about 15 min walk from an ALDI. Internet was awful though and some flat issues weren't dealt with very quickly such as hot water going off.

Living in The Tannery has had it's pros and cons, overall it's a decent accommodation but it certainly has it's downfalls especially if you're not a medical/dental student. For medical and dental students the walk to Uni is a 10-12 minute stroll, for me, it's a 20-25 climb up a very steep hill and is massively inconvenient. The flats are nice, you get a massive desk, comfy double bed, a big kitchen with a social space. The colour scheme is ridiculously ugly but you get used to it. You don't get a TV, kettle, toaster or iron which is annoying seeing as you are paying the same if not more as other accommodations who do. Overall, the Tannery has lovely flats and is quite social, I'd definitely recommend it for Medics, but I would suggest other students to look elsewhere due to the poor location and value to money.

Good atmosphere and very helpful with any issues. Very close to the uni and city centre. 10 minute walk from most things.

The halls are constantly smell like vomit. The management is really bad, once my room got flooded and they didn't do anything for a week; then there was no hot water in my flat so I had to go and get a shower in a different location. The location is ok, it's 15 minutes from the Business School, but you can definitely find something better for that money. Would not recommend.

I didn't pick here originally but when I moved in I was pleasantly surprised - really nice rooms, bathrooms and communal spaces. The location is really good for the city and for uni, but you are quite far away from the main student areas in Leeds. The Nisa is handy and there are lots of local shops. Really safe, secure, clean and quiet. I was really happy here and I would definitely recommend to a first year student.

Had the best first year in this halls, 10 minute walk to city centre, 20 minute walk to uni but £1 buses run every 10 minutes. Really sociable halls, always socials on and random parties and people heading out for a night out. Meet a lot of people in freshers here too, staff are really helpful and not too bad for noise.

15/20minute up hill walk to uni. The rooms and kitchens have plenty of space. The common room is good but doesn't not get used as much as I thought it would.

Lucky that I get on really well with my flat mates as you don't really socialise with anyone else. Quite far to walk every day to uni and a bit expensive considering this.

I was so disappointed when I found out I was leaving in the Tannery because I thought it was so far from uni but now I really enjoy the short walk to uni (it takes around 10-15 minutes) and we are so close to town. You don't really need to use public transport. Moreover, social life is incredible. I only know one person who put this accommodation as her first option and I think this is one of the reasons that has made people be more willing to socialize. In addition, after having been in other accomodations the size of our rooms is what every student needs to feel at home far away from it. The bathrooms may look like plane toilets but is a very good point to have it in your room and not having to share with anyone. In conclusion, I would highly recommend this place.

No social committee when I lived there until the Easter term. Nevertheless, the location and flats themselves were nice.

Each room in the flat is a different size but they all cost the same? Might just be us but we don't really know anybody else on our floor. It's quite close to uni and the rooms are nice

You probably wont have chosen The Tannery and you probably haven't heard of it. You're also probably disappointed that you didn't get Henry Price. When you arrive at The Tannery and for the first few weeks, you probably wont like it that much. But after time you'll realise that the people are lovely, Nisa is amazing and The Tannery is actually pretty damn good.

Terrible value for money, charging a fortune for what other accoms offer at a basic level. Had no hot water for a week despite complaints. Overall wouldn't ever recommend.

The rooms and kitchen in the Tannery are large and comfortable. However for the money we don't get a lot included and because we pay more the people seem to be generally more snobby. The location is brilliant as it is so handy for both town and the uni, however it is slightly excluded from the student vibe as the halls don't socialise.

It's a long walk up the steep never ending (it seems like it anyway) steps to uni but it really is a good place to live! It's really secure, the staff are so friendly, the shop is a life saver, when I was there the socials were pretty good and at the same time it's quiet enough to study and far enough from uni to take a break. Maintenance requests were pretty quick to get done too - the only thing is that the lifts occasionally/semi-regularly broke or were vomited it (why on earth would you do that?! It has a mini garden in the courtyard perfect for this!!) and were rendered unusable, which is a pain if your carrying your bike up to your room on the 8th floor. But I really enjoyed living there and I would strongly recommend it to anyone considering living here!!

Nearly everyone in our block didn't choose it, it is an extremely in sociable set up! There's loads of nurses and international students. Luckily I've made good friends but you have to try hard and make an effort
