Loved my time living at Iglu Redfern! Amazing location, super easy for uni and groceries. My room was comfy and quiet, and the facilities were great. The community events were honestly the highlight, such a good way to meet people and feel at home. Staff were always friendly and helpful! Would definitely recommend to anyone moving to Sydney for study!

Excellent student accommodation with great in-room and shared facilties. Staff were great and friendly. I was given a full virtual tour of the premises before booking, and then given another tour around during check in. They showed great hospitality and were very helpful through every process, including my early checkout. Many events happening every month and the free breakfast on weekdays was great too.

I lived in Iglu while doing an exchange semester from Ireland and all the staff were amazing and really friendly! The rooms were high quality and the common spaces were always really clean and cozy. Again, I just want to thank Katie, Sharon, Maria, Anna, Yuki, Robin, Ioanna, all the RLs and the dogs, Oskar and Bailey!

I've lived here for over a month and it's the best accompaniment ever. There are many monthly events and it's so convenient to use various spaces such as gyms and study zones! I get a lot of help from the friendly staff. You can also use the printing service, but it costs from a certain page. I got into trouble while using the printing service today and thank you so much for staff’s kind response. I'm so touched!

5.0

Lived at Iglu Redfern for two years and it became home. The whole team's incredibly warm and they've had my back, which is a pretty big deal when you're away from home as an international student. Shoutout to Katie, the manager, and especially Anna - they know everyone, remember the small stuff, and actually care. The facilities are strong, location's unbeatable (especially if you're at USYD), but honestly it's the people that made it. If you're lucky, you might even catch an occasional drop-in by Oscar or Bailey (cutest dogs in the Southern Hemisphere)! If you're looking at student accommodation in Sydney, this should definitely be on your shortlist!
