The staff are the only thing that saves this property. I’ve been living here since September and since this time I’ve had : inadequate heating, inadequate hot water, no water at all, fridge broken so all my food melted and gave me food poisoning, bed collapsed so i slept on the floor for like 5 days, mould, silverfish, leaky taps, broken lamp, broken microwave, silverfish, clogged drains. The building itself is a construction site, with the reception and study room disappearing during exam season and the communal areas have offered no communal feel at all. The doors have randomly stopped walking forcing people to walk around the whole building to get to the lifts or even in the premises. The silver lining? The rent is going up to £470 a week for my room next year so I’m being priced out and living in a construction site for the remainder of the time I’m paying £406 a week.

I recently stayed in a studio room at IQ Aldgate, and I was very pleased with my experience. The studio room itself was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed to make my stay enjoyable. The bed was comfortable, the kitchenette was well-equipped, and the bathroom was modern and clean. What really stood out to me, however, was the friendliness of the reception staff at IQ Aldgate. From the moment I arrived, they were welcoming and helpful, answering any questions I had and ensuring that I had everything I needed for my stay. They were always available to help out with any issues that arose, and I really appreciated their positive attitude and willingness to go the extra mile. Overall, I had a great stay at IQ Aldgate, and I would highly recommend it to other students looking for a comfortable, convenient place to stay. The reception staff were a real highlight for me, and their kindness and helpfulness really made my stay enjoyable.

Location is convenient, but the design of the flats are ridiculous. I rent a silver plus studio, and the kitchenette doesn't have its own extractor hood so anytime you, or your neighbours, cook, the smells stays in your room for ages. There's not enough ventilation, constantly feels stuffy. Because of the location, opening the window means constantly smelling sewage, car exhaust and smoke. The staff are helpful enough. The laundry is run by Circuit so you know you're already going to lose money. Would recommend renting private or picking a better location.
