This is 100% the best student accommodation in Sheffield
This is 100% the best student accommodation in Sheffield. The size of the bedrooms is amazing, and any problems get sorted very quickly and with no problems. There are really good facilities and it’s nice to have en suite bathrooms. I’ve never had any problems with other students living here and everyone is very respectful and it’s a nice community. I would recommend it to anybody if they’re just moving into student accommodation or are thinking about switching you’ll always be supported living here. One of the best things about living here is the staff members Amy & Ryan, my university journey hasn’t been particularly smooth however these two have been amazing and always supported me, they go way above and beyond their job role with a genuine care for students and their wellbeing, they deserve so much recognition for that. I genuinely would have really struggled to get through the last year without them both.
