A short walk to lectures makes more difference than most students expect. You leave your room later, head back between classes if you've forgotten something, and the campus never feels far away. That's why Mary Sturge Birmingham remains a popular choice for Aston students year after year.
Part of the Aston Student Village, the residence places you right beside the university and keeps Birmingham city centre within walking distance. Shops, cafés, the library and everyday essentials are already part of the route, so there's very little extra travelling once the semester begins. If you have been reading Mary Sturge reviews, you'll notice that the location comes up repeatedly, and it's easy to understand why after spending time here.

Very nice. Clean and helpful staff. Denzel is very great.

Currently living here and it’s horrendous. Once you’ve entered a contract you cannot get out of it under any circumstances and they WILL NOT HELP YOU if you have any grievance. They take forever to repair things and they could care less about their tenants.
Gonzalo Aguado
Currently living here and it’s a mess. I absolutely encourage you NOT to take this accommodation in Birmingham. It’s incredibly expensive for the poor service they offer. And they just try to buy your good reviews by giving away free things that are not worth 1£. The rooms are awful, mine has holes in the walls. The bathrooms are worse than in a plane. The kitchen is full of dirt and oven was broken. The common areas are messed up as well. I would recommend you to look for other accommodations. Trust me
