Most helpful review

My experience at Orme House so far has been very pleasant. I prefer to live on my own an commute to the local university and the location itself is very convenient as I have easy access to the buses as well as stores nearby/ town. Any issues or concerns can be taken up with the building concierge so a simple email will address any of these very quickly. My room is perfect for me as I'm living alone and I'm yet to find any problems. The building itself hasn't faltered at all; laundry services can be used whenever you need and they're a lot more accessible than you would expect.

Great staff that work here! So helpful and accommodating. Good location as it’s close to bus stops which can take you to uni and to Hanley. Also very close to Newcastle town centre so a great place to live.

So nice spacious and such lovely views over the park ! Super safe environment !!! Some troubles with antisocial behaviour after management have left which cannot be helped in student accommodation , however whenever reported it is dealt really well by management!!

My accommodation service so far has been excellent. The staff have all been very welcoming and supportive. I was originally worried that living in a studio flat would not promote socialising between other students staying here but having the common room accessible whenever has negated this issue.

My Accomodation experience so far has been fantastic and overall a one of a kind service. I originally lived independently in my own flat and had concerns about living with other students and people in a shared accommodation but I can honestly say that concern and nerves was totally erased as soon as I stepped into the building. The staff here are the some of the funniest and most welcoming people I've met especially Chloe who is our main rep at the house. My top floor studio flat is beautifully furnished, very clean and overall perfect size for my single occupancy I would even consider living here with my partner next year as they accept Dual Accompany!! The view from my window is superb and honestly I wouldn't change my room nor choice of house for anything. Socially, I found everyone very friendly too as we have a group chat and several points to socialise such as the common room.I would like to remention Chloe once again for her outstanding support for me during this difficult move

Customer service advisor makes Orme House the lovely home that it is! There’s a wide range of rooms so everyone is catered for. As a disabled student, I appreciate the elevator and the accessible room! The common room is social and the gym is lovely. The rooms are spacious and student life is very sociable here!

It was an okay experience, the receptionists are lovely and so kind. But the wifi is appalling 80% of the time I used my data which should not be the case? We can all agree on that so yes definitely fix that guys

Decent location, friendly staff, close transport to keele university, and a short walk to nearby shops. The rooms are better than the majority of rooms I’ve had on campus, however new barns is a lot better built. The fittings on the windows here draft and cause condensation; then mould.

The location of this accommodation is great. Shops such as Lidl, Aldi and Morrisons are all walking distance, even the high street! This is great for people who can’t drive yet. Rooms are spacious and have a fair amount of storage. Showers are great. The management are really nice and are happy to help you with any problems you face. Only improvement I would suggest for the accommodation is a better ventilation system.

Orme house is located exceptionally well, with over four supermarkets within walking distance and a bus stop on the same road going to the university. There was a change in management while I’ve been here but the new staff are great and an improvement from the last. There’s a large common room which was perfect for social gatherings and the building is really modern and pleasant to live at
