Depot Point, london

Hands down one of the best student accommodations in London! The facilities are great (really nice and spacious common room, study room, performance room etc) and very clean too. My flat is also very comfortable (and clean), and I love my flatmates too. The staff are so incredibly lovely and helpful, very great to chat to and also super helpful (shoutout to Ganavi, Aaliyah and Harty). Many residents always go to the staff at reception for help with various issues, and the staff will always try to come up with the most helpful solutions and offer alternatives, too. As some other reviews have noted, parcels are always kept safe and sorted well by the team, and the maintenance staff are very efficient and helpful too. I have also been to every single event hosted by the team, and they are all up to a very high standard - there's always good food/drinks and great company, and a guaranteed fun time! Shoutout to Hayley for the great organisation! Highly recommend, especially as they have just renovated (and are currently undergoing more renovations), so the interior is really nice and new - my friends who've visited have all been thoroughly impressed!

Very disappointing experience, especially with management and communication. During the final 20 days of my tenancy, I was told that I had to move from my original 35 sqm room to a alimony half-sized room, with no compensation and essentially no discussion or negotiation. Before I had even agreed to the move, very loud noise started in the morning, making it extremely difficult to sleep and leaving me feeling pressured to move. The handling of the move itself was also extremely stressful. I was initially told that I could collect the key to the new room on Friday, but that I had to move out by Monday morning. I specifically confirmed with reception that I could collect the key on Friday evening because I would be returning late. However, on Friday evening I was then told they could not find the key to the new room. Reception suggested opening the door for me once and having me use my belongings to keep the door from closing, despite me explaining that I was concerned about the security of my possessions. They also said they could not repeatedly come upstairs to open the door. What made the situation even more frustrating was that I had repeatedly been told by email that I needed to complete the move by Monday morning, yet on Sunday afternoon reception asked me to return the key to my original room. Had I done so, I would have had no key to either room and no access to the communal areas, even though my original tenancy had not yet ended. I therefore refused to return the key early. I understand that accommodation providers may occasionally need residents to change rooms, but the way this was organised was unnecessarily stressful and poorly communicated. The management response throughout the process was particularly disappointing, and I did not feel that reasonable concerns were taken seriously. Based on my experience, I would not recommend Yugo Depot Point.

Depot point was my first year university accommodation and it was fantastic. The receptionist Aaliyah and Ganavi (along with Harti) always greet you with a friendly face and are able to fix any issues quickly and responsively. Overall the accommodation has many facilities such as an on site gym, laundry room, study rooms and a rooftop. There is also a range of activities (which I was able to host as a student ambassador) to meet new people. I highly recommend this accommodation whether it’s your first year in Uni or you’re first time moving to London!

highly recommend if you want to find a highly cost effective place which very near to ucl, here fountains small gym which is friendly to new people who interested in fitness. And you can find many supermarkets around here for 10mins walking. And it’s relatively convenient for you if you want to go anywhere in London.

Good place. The staff is really helpful and the rooms are well equipped. However, the community is very selfish and individualistic, even dirty. Also, there are too many rooms per hallway, so it can be a bit noisy.
