The forge overall is really good and I would definitely recommend staying here as a student. The studios are worth the money and great in size. The forge offers many different activity/cinema nights and does special events things throughout the month. There’s always a few freebies to get. The maintainance team is lovely and extrmely helpful fast to sort out any repairs that need doing or looking at. All the staff are lovely and extrmely helpful.

They moved us into a rat infested building A boiler had a severe problem to the point water was pouring out of the Walls from inside to out with a member of their staff refusing to turn the water off in the property because he did not want to get wet The constant lies And mistakes ( which appear all the time) They did not have everyone's rooms prepped correctly missing items They have left people without hot water for amonth They have left gates and doors broken and unable to secure so rats could enter our building They took away our bins shared and left us nowhere to leave our rubbish apart from in two trolleys and on the floor The washing machines are absolutely disgusting and dirty and they refuse to do anything about it. The hallways were not cleaned regularly Your keys don't always work on your gate and sometimes it locks you out Member of staff stalked me and try to intimidate me and backed me up in a lift There so much more do not go
The forge is a good accommodation choice for either university, as it’s located not far from either. The location, being right opposite an Aldi and a 24 hour shop, is really helpful and convenient.
Thank you so much for the lovely review - we hope you're enjoying your stay here :)
I've really enjoyed staying here the first year, it's genuinely been really good. But could have been a little cheaper, since it just makes more sense to go for a house share for the cost.
Thank you for your lovely review!
Lovely reception who are always happy to help (Ameenah and Freya in particular). Good location but not much chance to interact with other people.
Thank you so much for your lovely review and compliments towards our team! :) Hopefully with our refurbishment works for next year our new communal spaces will be a great place to meet more of the students staying here!
Great accom for the price, proper lovely reception staff and right outside aldi, and active for socials and pre's, reccomend it for first years
