I am an international student living at the Octagon. It is a great place to live. It is directly across the road from the University of Liverpool and 5 minutes from the Sydney Jones Library. The location is very advantageous for students. The Octagon is a 10 min walk to City Centre and there are grocery stores and restaurants just 2-3 minutes from my building. The apartment is a bit small but it is very comfortable for one person and the size is about the same to other locations. There is good security and the laundry and bins are enclosed in a courtyard making it very safe. The apartment was clean when I moved in and any repairs I needed were quickly addressed. THE STAFF ARE WONDERFUL!!! They are so helpful and have made my stay in the UK very comfortable, despite the conditions with Covid-19. Maria at the office is particularly helpful. She is very quick to respond to my emails and concerns. She has helped me resolve several issues!!! I am very grateful for her help and kindness. Also, the maintenance staff are great! Especially Kevin. He has helped fix several items in my flat quickly and efficiently. He is always happy to help and I know if I need something repaired it will be done quickly. Overall, all the staff are friendly and helpful. They have gone above and beyond to make my stay here comfortable. I recommend staying here if you get the chance.
