Mannequin House Reviews

My flatmates don't clean after themselves and are very loud. Although I've complained and reported it often they haven't done anything. I'm studying law and I require some quiet time, but apparently that's too much to ask at 1am. There are many times when we do not have electricity for hours, even the fridge didn't work so I had to throw away all my food that was in freezer. Windows in rooms don't open a lot and there's no ventilation so it gets really warm inside. One of the biggest red flags for me should've been when I moved in my room was very dirty, there were still someone's cloths in the wardrobe , stains on curtains and walls, which means that they don't clean rooms after someone moves out.  if anyone is thinking of moving in after this comment please let me know, I'm more than happy to give my lease away. It's a platinum ensuit for £199 per week, and it's already available. angelika_kumor@hotmail.com

I love love this accommodation so much . It's everything I need in one space . The staff is so kind. I have so many experiences where they went out of their way to help me . I love how all the rooms are en-suite . The accommodation is quite beautiful , so good for taking pictures !

My friend and I rebooked to live in a flat together this year, with the specific requirement that we would also be put with people from our uni (RVC). They put us into a flat together but not with other students from RVC, and when we moved in the flat kitchen was filthy and my room had several things damaged in it. We asked to move to another flat which we knew other RVC students were in, and finally they moved us in. We were not warned of the constant building work that would be going on less that 20 m from the flat which went on for the whole duration of the tenancy, and when we asked reception what we could do about it as it was extremely distracting whilst studying online, they only offered to move us all separately into new flats. We were not offered any compensation and ended up paying the same amount as people in other blocks who were unaffected. The guest policy is frankly unnecessary, the car park was constantly used by people as a skate park, and wifi was temperamental. :(

Great place to be in... Had a great time...

Mannequin is a good no-frills student accommodation, with everything a student needs. The rooms are modern with lots of storage and the bathroom is well sized. The study room is also great as a workspace. The reception staff are so lovely and helpful, and actually get to know the residents so it creates a really nice atmosphere. It’s pretty much a 30 second walk from the Tube station, so you don’t have to walk far at night, so you feel quite safe. However, the internet is quite patchy, which isn’t great considering nearly all courses have been online, and you do find that staff will often come into the flats with little to no announcement, and sometimes you are asked for your flat and all the rooms to have full access for a 3-4 day period, which can make things quite difficult in terms of making plans/being out of the flat.

Mannequin house is such a wonderful and amazing accommodation, not only is it a fair price for London, it is so easy to get around London.with the Victoria line. The staff are truly such kind souks and are always so helpful. My views are amazing and the neighbours is so secure. I am in love with everything it has to offer (thank you mannequin house)

I'm a Postgraduate student from The Bartlett, UCL, living in Mannequin house since March. The Mannequin house team is flexible with our arrival dates and was super helpful when I had to quarantine at the accommodation. The staffs are super friendly and very approachable. I travel to my university located in central London via underground tube from mannequin house. The tube station is just across the property and it hardly takes 10 to 15 minutes to reach any part of central London. The location is very conducive for a student. There are many recreational outlets within 3 miles. The rooms are all ensuite accommodation, studios are also available. The rent is inclusive of all the bills and utilities including wifi. The courtyard below is a nice spot to relax and interact. The study space is a good spot. People conduct BBQ parties and other events frequently. Overall recommended if you want to have your own private space as well as to interact with multi-cultural background students.

Mannequin house is filled with friendly staffs, it really feels like home away from home!

A very friendly and peaceful environment to live in

This place is a horrible place to live. The management are rude they do not really care about you all they care about is money. There has also been multiple hate crimes that’s has arose at this accommodation as well. I would not recommend living here. The location also isn’t good it has no good food places or no good parks around the only good thing it has is the underground right next to it.

From the RVC It’s been difficult to socialise due to Covid but with the events that go on online through the accommodation, the whole process of moving away has still been amazing. The staff are very helpful and friendly!!

All the stuff is really helpful and nice and willing to help in any way possible.

Mannequin House is the most amazing place i have ever lived in my life. Staff is incredibly nice especially Mr Mo.

Location great but guest policy is frustrating, also regular noise complaints even though it was a Saturday night and the volume was not that loud

Terrible building work outside less than 10m away. Difficult to get any work done due to the noise. When complained about they just say they will move us all into separate flats which is unfair after complaining all year about the noise. When first moving in I got moved into 3 different flats as each one didn’t fit the requirements I had asked for. They have put 4 students who are on a very demanding course on the noisiest side of the building which has had detrimental effects on our studying. Overall very unsatisfactory

Perfect place to stay in your uni years as bus stop and tube station are couple walk away. Have amazing social spaces to chill with friends. Staff is really friendly and helpful.

Mannequin house is the best place in London to live in specially for your uni life. You will enjoy every second of this place. You can have your own bbq sessions as well The staff and the management team are amazing always ready to help you and do not be worried about our safety as well. Overall its the BEST place that's all I can say.

This is a brilliant property.Great location. Right near the tube station with excellent connections. Supermarkets nearby. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

Well looked after accommodation, the staff are very helpful and friendly and the cleaners do an amazing job.

Very handy to live with my boyfriend and have a car space all for no extra charge. Transportation links are very easy to get to central London and staff are warm and welcoming and always offer to help with anything.

Lived here for 1,5 years and enjoyed every second of it! The staff is lovely and incredibly helpful :) When I had to urgently move out they helped me find someone to take over my contract, which I am very grateful for. Whenever I had an issue, they were happy to help :) special shoutout to staff Mr Mo & Ash very professional and helpful. Having a lovely courtyard and games room was a massive plus, and the study room was perfect for when I did not have the energy or time to go to uni! Would definitely recommend living here!

Really lovely accommodation for my 1st year and getting used to university life. The staff are so lovely and I have felt really safe while I have been here.

I faced only two temporary negative experiences during my stay of entire two years. They are superb otherwise.

The staffs are quite friendly and render assistance promptly. Very good accommodation to live.

Very accommodating staff. Great location. Has all the essential for a comfortable student stay.

Perfect location, train station is just a min walk and the best part of the accommodation for me is the flat. Very well designed en-suite style, better than most other student houses

A modern building with very clean communal areas. It has great facilities such as study areas, a social room, and a courtyard to enjoy. All staff members are super friendly and helpful all the time; there is always someone at the reception so we feel safe and can always get help if needed. Maintenance issues are also always resolved speedily. Overall had a lovely experience and definitely a good place to make new friends from different universities.

The staff at Mannequin House are incredible kind helpful and always go above and beyond I can’t express my gratitude to them for the support they have given me over the past 3 years!

Staying at the Mannequin House has been a pleasant experience. WiFi can move a bit slow but is usually reliable. Social spaces are nice but because of covid my personal social experience has not been what I imagined.

Had my best time over here. Met lot of interesting img people over here. I can come when I ever I want and go out whenever I want. There was no restrictions. Whenever I had some issues in my room it was attended immediately. When I was in Isolation the accommodation was very helpful in all ways. They provided all the support I needed. The staffs are extremely friendly. The location of the property is very good advantage. You can go to central London in less than 30 minutes if you catch Victoria line. The Blackhorse road station is 2 minutes away from the accommodation. There is a COOP store which is located right next to the accommodation. There are lots of other shops near the accommodation. Overall this place is like a heaven for all the students

Great accommodation with friendly people! Highly recommend.

Staff are great and have made everything very easy, from moving in to lockdown. The rooms are lovely and spacious, although we've had noise concerns they've managed it and taken on all of our requests.

This was my first choice of accommodations when first coming to the UK and they have surpassed my expectations. The staff is beyond friendly and so caring for their tenants. The location is also great; blackhorse road station being right across the street. A great place to live and socialise, taking into account with social distancing measures.

These halls were so good that I extended my tenancy twice (so three tenancies in total)! The management team did everything correctly - maintenance, handling parcels and socials! They have large rooms, huge kitchens, modern social spaces and they also do their bit for charity with donation boxes posted all year round in the building. Thank you Mannequin House!

Do not pay any attention to the bad reviews you read about mannequin house. This property is amazing and I am more than enjoying my stay here. The staff at the front desk are amazing and they have been more than supportive even before I moved into mannequin (especially my bro Moe and Jess!!) The social places are very nice and the rooms are of great value for your money. They provide two vacuums per flat however you need to purchase your own bathroom cleaning products (and they inform you of this before moving in!). The location is perfect for if you study in central as Blackhorse station is literally right across the street. There is 24/7 security and you will have a great social experience here. I fully recommend this property as you get great value for your money!

Perfect location, friendly staff, really good room size.

Nice accommodation, but they have treated students so unfairly during the COVID-19 pandemic. Students are being faced with huge rent fee's despite moving out due to the pandemic.

There is the most distracting building work happening directly outside my window which shows no signs of being completed any time soon. I am unable to study or even relax peacefully because it is extremely loud and disturbing. I was not told about this before moving in and I believe it was their responsability to inform tennants before arrival. There were also seven spiders in my room when I arrived, proving that it had not been cleaned. Spiders appear frequently, probably due to the construction work. There is also no ventilation system so during summer the heat indoors is unbarable, and no fans or air-con is provided. The windows also don't open much, perhaps two inches. My wifi is good the majority of the time but every few hours it drops out and doesn't reconnect again for a while. Also, many people smoke weed so my room constanty smells. The staff are helpful and friendly, but are yet to do anything about the smell.

The location is not too bad because of the Victoria line. The construction noise is annoying

It's been really a good place to stay overall and the transport connections are pretty close,basically you get everything you need as a student in one.

I am enjoying my stay so far. Staff is really helpful. Tube is jst few steps away and it's really easy to head to central london hardly 15 mins by tube. Social space is really good. Internet services are a bit annoying sometimes doesn't work in some areas of the property. Overall I find this place really good to stay I live in a silver studio,rooms are spacious every basic need is fulfilled. Would surely recommend.

Great place to live staff is amazing especially Zee

I really like living here however the rise in price for next year’s rent is really off putting so unfortunately I will have to move else where. The building is new which is nice however the study room is located in a noisy area and printer never works. Over all no major complaints and is definitely a nice place to live for student accommodation.

Enjoying my stay here so far. The place is seconds away from the tube. Markets and other needed places are close to the Accomadation. Nice and helpful staff.

Bad staff. They always mix up everything. I have handed in the required documents and fees etc., but they keep on chasing you saying that you didn’t. Their staff are very careless. I won’t stay here next year.

It very nice to stay here,good environment.

Mannequin house is a fabulous place to live in with amazing people. It's conveniently located to center and is in a lovely neighborhood to live in.

A very well managed accommodation

I have lived at Mannequin House for 2 years. I have really enjoyed it! The management team is really helpful; the hall is brand new and the room is spacious and modern; and the hall is located just a few seconds away from the tube station.

I have lived in Mannequin House for two years. The staff was really helpful organising my stay and was always able to help me with any questions given. The rooms are cosy and well equipped. The monthly events organised by the hall really brought people together and were a great addition to the living experience.

I love living here.All staff members are very helpful and very sweet.I love that its very close to the train station and is a central location for most London locations.

A lot more could be done to make it a better place to live

It is one of the best student residence in London.

I have enjoyed living at the mannequin house, it has everything I feel I need

My time at Mannequin House has been positive. It's been full of positive learning experiences that have allowed me to learn about myself and a variety of different people. Overall its the perfect environment to grow in a number of aspects and it definitely aids the process.

Already rebooked here for the third year as well, one of the best places to be in London

A family like feel in an unknown city

As an international student coming to London for the first time, Mannequin House made my transition extremely easy. The staff is super helpful and set up wonderful events to make and meet people.

Overall good service , staff went above and beyond to make my experience even better.
