I would not recommend staying at this student accommodation based on my checkout experience. Be very careful when moving out. Even after paying A$225 for the full end-of-lease cleaning service, we were still charged additional fees, including: A$30 for a rubbish bag. A$58 for oven cleaning. These charges came as a surprise, especially after paying for a comprehensive cleaning package. One major issue is the lack of transparency during the inspection process. Management should: Provide dated photos showing the condition of the room before the tenant moves in. Conduct a joint inspection with the tenant during checkout so that any issues can be discussed and agreed upon on the spot. Provide clear photographic evidence before charging tenants for alleged damage or cleaning. Without these practices, it is very difficult for students to verify whether the charges are fair. I hope this review serves as a warning to future students. Before signing your lease, take detailed photos of every part of your room when you move in, and request to be present during the final inspection when you move out. It may help avoid unexpected charges that can amount to hundreds of dollars.

YUGO University Square - The best on-campus accommodation for Unimelb. My stay at YUGO University Square Student Accommodation in Melbourne has been nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the welcoming atmosphere and attention to detail. The staff at YUGO University Square are incredibly friendly and accommodating, always ready to assist with any queries or concerns. Their dedication to ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable living experience truly sets this accommodation apart. The facilities are outstanding, with modern amenities and stylish communal spaces that foster a sense of community among residents. Whether I'm studying in the quiet study areas or socializing in the common rooms, there's always a comfortable space to suit my needs. One aspect that I particularly appreciate is the focus on security and safety. I feel reassured knowing that there are strict access controls and 24/7 security monitoring in place, providing peace of mind for myself and my fellow residents. The location is unbeatable, situated in the heart of Melbourne and within walking distance of shops, cafes, and public transportation. It's incredibly convenient for both university students and anyone looking to explore the city. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my experience at YUGO University Square Student Accommodation. It truly feels like a home away from home, and I would highly recommend it to any student looking for quality accommodation in Melbourne.

DO NOT LIVE HERE if you want to feel safe and enjoy your university life. There are also mold issues, which can affect the air quality and may spread through the air or water. Overall, I would not recommend this place to any student looking for a safe, healthy, and comfortable living environment. They also refuse to return my deposit!!!!

Extremely disappointed with this student accommodation and especially the new management team. We originally booked this room because we were clearly promised a cashback offer before signing the contract. However, after moving in, the new manager suddenly claimed that we were “not eligible” anymore and kept making different excuses to avoid honoring the original agreement. Today, I tried to communicate with the manager face-to-face regarding this issue, but his attitude was incredibly rude and aggressive. Instead of professionally explaining the situation or helping students resolve the issue, he spoke to us in a very hostile tone, which made the whole experience even worse. After talking with other students, we also realized that many people had their cashback cancelled after this new manager took over. This no longer feels like an isolated misunderstanding — it feels misleading and dishonest. Students choose accommodation based on trust and the promises made before signing. Using cashback offers to attract students and then refusing to honor them afterward is extremely unprofessional. Would strongly advise future students to think carefully before renting here.
