St David's Reviews

Public spaces are very well managed. The vending machines in social spaces need to be restocked more often. Reliability of the internet leaves a lot to be desired.

good location for University of Wales students

New, easy to clean cabin type flats, 24hr security, good-sized kitchens, social spaces, bike parking with a small gym on-site & helpful and friendly, full-time reception staff. It's my 4th year here, I love it!

A very good place to meet new people, very easy for trinity students due to distance to uni.

A good place to settle down in. Not too far from uni either but most importantly its very close to windsteert ... ;)

Friendly / helpful staff Close to city center

close to town, helpful staff and large social spaces

St David's is a great place to live whilst being at uni. It is located right near town which is convenient, as well as travel to both campuses are quick and easy. The social rooms and living space they provide is great to relax. the halls and rooms are very spacious.

A value for money place,clean areas, friendly and helpful hall management 24/7. Highly recommended if you are looking for a place to have your best time as a student and enjoy to the fullest the life in Swansea.

Plenty of space in kitchen and bedrooms,

the staff are good and social areas are relaxing. its a good place to live and close to town

lovely staff amazing people and a really good experience to start uni off

Amazing facilities that make leaving home easier. Amazing staff that help with any issues that you may have. Great rooms and the kitchen. social hubs are something that makes making friends a lot easier. WiFi is brilliant in my room, can be slow in the kitchen and outside in the courtyard.

I moved here for my first year in university. i have had a great experience from meeting new friends within the accommodation social areas. You wouldn't expect a halls residence to be in such a high standard from the style to the cleanliness. Management are also supportive from dealing with rooms to helping with personal issues. Student Roost is a excellent place to live throughout the university years meeting a variety or people and a range of different experiences.

It’s my first year at uni and I fell in love with the place at an open day for UWTSD. Staff are friendly and always help to ensure we have good experiences. We also have social events and spaces where we can meet up with others in the comfort of our Accomodation - boosting my confidence loads especially since I can get very shy and anxious around others. couldn’t be happier here

Really friendly staff. Nice looking place. Bad WiFi. Uses Circuit laundry which is bad and expensive for what you get. Lots of previous damage to flats, some of which you won’t notice till after they require you to report so will try to fine you for it. Would recommend you, your flats mates and everyone how helps any of you move down check everything and write down the issues and once everyone has done so email with all the issues

My time here so far has been really enjoyable, everything is kept running really efficiently and I feel fortunate to have the social spaces that are available. In terms of value I that for what you get, it is extremely worth the money I paid especially with the Gold room.

In all amazing accommodation would definitely recommend

Excellent location. Very good customer service.

excellent facilities and social events are provided. very friendly and helpful staff.

the environment here is very good. the social aspect is good. water is not very fast draining but all else very good.

I've had the opportunity to meet a lot of new people and make new friends that will last a long time. It's been really good and I'm glad I chose to come here. Although it is a little expensive.

The place is very convenient for students, it is very safe place to leave as there is also security. The maintenance team is amazing, and they repair anything in less than 24 hours .

Very happy with stay. Amazing social spaces and a lot to do. Rooms are a good size and kitchen accommodates well. No issues with anything all year round, staff are really friendly and helpful. Would recommend.

A great student experience with all facilities included. However, there are some faults with pool table and occassional faults with wifi.

A fantastic student experience available to all. a home from home just right in the perfect spot, in the middle of town. Would recommend to anyone. Sad to be leaving! :(

Good place good location however location

helpful staff and great place to meet new people.

To begin with, the staff were very helpful; for example, before moving I was able to call the site multiple times with any queries or questions I had, and on the actual moving day the process was made way less stressful by the available information and staff members. To help residents get to know each other Student Roost held a "Welcome Party" and they even provided a bus and wristband for the most popular club in the area! It is efforts such as these that have made staying here worthwhile and more enjoyable. When the reception staff finish at 8. a security guard takes over and maintains the safety of all the residents. Rebooking my room has been made so much easier, and I wouldn't hesitate to live here for the entirety of my university career- especially when considering the fact that Student Roost is slightly cheaper than staying on campus (as a Swansea University student).

great service would recommend to anyone who is looking for high quality student accommodation.

only bus 10 come here Kitchen sometimes really dirty

Made good friends here! In the beginning of the year everyone was really friendly, at the end of the year they didn't care anymore and the staff reacts really rude. They don't help with communication and don't give an entry notice in time. They can give a harsh comment if you ask for help or something doesn't go how they want it. Lift broke down and they didn't give any updates. They defend it was only for sone weeks but in the end we didn't have a lift for almost 2 months. In the end they didn't care anymore. Wifi is also really bad and cuts out almost every day. A lot of noise in the courtyard and the security doesn't do anything about it cause they are too busy watching youtube on their phone. In the end they didn't give as much freebies anymore and no free breakfast anymore. Too expensive.

Really friendly staff, always happy to help! Flats themselves are up to date and comfy, just enough space!

The location is very nice as its near everything and the stuff is very friendly.

convenience social spaces staff postal system

if you are looking for new friends this place is great

Had nothing but problems here since I've moved in. It's in a great location but the staff need to pay more attention to serious issues going on within their accommodation.

WiFi always cuts out and goes down, when lift is broken it takes months to fix and complaints don’t get sorted unless you complain multiple times, I.e maggots in flat

Really friendly staff, social events that could suit anyone, excellent experience.

Alright place, staff is quite nice but head manager says to his staff that they can't be close with their tenants to talk to them about stuff. Good location, but a bit overpriced for the services (washingmachines, lift breaks down and don't fix it). Loud in the courtyard at night (it can be loud on a student night, but they should keep it in hand).

Incredibly friendly. very welcoming and well worth the price!

Amazing stay for the year. Wish the curtains were blackout.

i enjoy my stay at st davids. staff are very friendly and helpful

Very nice place to live. Good room with enough space, big wardrobe, plenty of shelves including lovely ones near bed, very nice bathroom. Staff are amazing, very helpful. A bit pricy, but worth it. Very close to centre, Lidl is just in a minute of walking. Overall great place for students to live!

I rate the hall management one star because as I was booking on for next year with a £200 off deal, they reassured me it would be easy to cancel if I successfully got a YII placement as long as I cancelled before July and they still said that the day I booked. March I successfully got a placement sorted, but I couldn't cancel my contract for next year because the policies had changed half way through this deal and multiple staff kept relaying me incorrect information and has now caused me even more stress to find someone to replace my contract on top of assignments and exams as I have no time to. I read all the policies last year and was completely unaware they changed. The amount of money you're paying, you'd think that someone would take out the bins and go over the kitchen or at least make sure the kitchen is clean every once a week but only the entrance to the block and lift are cleaned. The good points: 24 hour security, amazing social spaces and 24 hour parcel pick up.

st Davids offer a good value for money student accommodation having all of the bills and WiFi included in the price not only makes life simpler but also saves me time while i'm studying .

Living in St David’s is great. There are social events that are amazing and the staff are so lovely. I love my flat and the facilities as well. I didn’t consider moving into a house for my second year, I rebooked my room instead.

Overall, solid accomodation, however, and this is only my experience, you can be made to feel uncomfortable at times by other people, esspecially for someone like me who gets anxious easily.

Staff are super friendly. Location is brilliant for students it’s got everything we need. The on site gym is nice and convenient. Very safe place to live. I’ve been here 3 years never want to leave...

friendly staff, great social events

A comfortable space to live in. Staff at reception are always ready to help and are friendly. Brilliant location too - 10 minute walk from city centre and it’s right next to the train station.

A good accomodation, with a few delays in fixing lift. And wifi tends to cut out at the most inconvenient times

Have loved living at st davids, would recommend it to anyone studying at UWTSD or Swansea uni! Clean, helpful staff, always want to make you feel at home! Such an amazing place!!

I really love living at St. David’s! The team are all so friendly and welcoming, hosting a variety of events suitable for everyone! The halls are so close to everything that you need mike uni campuses, the train station, bus stations, shops and supermarkets to get food! The city centre is a short five to ten minute walk, making it super easy for students to be sociable. We are also surrounded by lots of beaches and nature trails so we can go for walks! St David’s is awesome!

Having moved 200 miles away from home it's been nice to come somewhere that is really understanding and accommodating to students

amazing location, friendly staff, good facilites such as the gym and social rooms. great for first years would highly recommend

Quiet flat with decent enviroment.

I like the location as its convenient to a lot of places.

Some problems took over a month to be solved, like the elevator.

Spent two amazing years in St Davids. It is a very quiet and comfortable place t live.

St Davids is a fun and safe place to live. I feel happy when im here and enjoy being with friends in the social areas.

Best part of st davids is the events they put on! Game nights monthly and film nights every now and then are a great way to make friends with people that aren't in your flat

I was ask to write something but I don't know what to write :P
