Known among many students as Halls Rahere Court, the property includes en-suite rooms and private studios suited to different budgets and preferences.

Shopping centres at Canary Wharf and Westfield Stratford City are easily reached by Underground, while nearby libraries and study spaces provide additional places to work outside your room.

I stayed here for three years in total, largely because of the convenient location and price. Looking back, however, I wish I had moved out much sooner and saved myself a great deal of stress. The two stars are purely for the convenience of the location and for the lovely day staff I had the opportunity to meet. Unfortunately, my overall experience was seriously affected by several incidents that I found extremely concerning. During my second year, a rat got into my room and I saw it running around my kitchen. I later discovered that it had entered through a hole in the wall next to the toilet pipes. The initial solution was to stuff wire scourers into the hole. When I asked maintenance about it, I was told that a rat could bite through them and that there was a better solution, but that solution was never implemented. To make matters worse, there were rat droppings in my room, so I asked for the room to be properly cleaned. I was subsequently told that it had been cleaned and that I could return. However, when I went back into the room, I found the exact same droppings in the same places. It was therefore clear to me that the room had not actually been cleaned after the rat infestation. By that point, I had already spent around two weeks out of my room, so I eventually gave up and cleaned it myself. I complained about this repeatedly and was promised that a manager would speak to me, but no manager ever came to discuss the situation with me. I found the handling of what I consider a serious hygiene issue extremely disappointing. There was also an incident in which money was stolen from my room while I was away during the summer. Whoever entered the room had apparently searched through my personal belongings to find it. I cannot say with certainty who took it, but access to my room was restricted to people who were authorised to enter, including staff. I later learned that I was not the only resident who had experienced something being stolen. I was told that my money would be returned, but that promise was never fulfilled. Another major concern was the repeated entry into my room by night security staff without warning or my consent. On one occasion, security entered my room at around 3 a.m. while I was sleeping. I found this extremely frightening and completely inappropriate. By my final year, I was so uncomfortable that I slept with my door blocked by furniture, kept a mug on the door handle, had a knife beside my bed, and kept a camera in my room 24/7. Having to take those measures just to feel safe in my own room says a lot about how seriously I felt my concerns had been handled. I am sure that many residents have had a very different and much more positive experience here, and perhaps I was simply unlucky in the situations I encountered. However, what these experiences showed me was how little supported I felt when serious problems arose. The day staff were often kind and helpful, and the location and price were excellent, but those positives ultimately did not outweigh the stress and lack of confidence I experienced during my stay. I would strongly encourage management to take complaints involving hygiene, room access, theft, and resident safety much more seriously and to follow through on the solutions and promises made to residents.

Local Sainsbury's supermarket and QMUL Mile End campus are easily within walking distance. There are two nearby tubes: Stepney Green and Mile End tubes. Comfortable environment to live in.

It‘s a great apartment. I like it very much. It has convenient transportation and a supermarket downstairs. The staff are super enthusiastic, and living here is full of happiness. The house is very clean!

Please if you can avoid moving into this accommodation. There are severe maintenance issues, staff are not the most helpful and it will cause you lots of issues. I am completely and utterly disappointed at the service and cleanliness at this accommodation, I have never seen anything like it at all. I say this in urgency to really read the reviews and take this into consideration. A real shame, your living space if not welcoming can cause severe mental health issues, the lack of decency and care from this accommodation is utterly disappointing.
