Review for Unite Students - Beech House I’ve been a student in the UK for three years, and staying at Unite Students Beech House has been, by far, the worst accommodation experience of my life. The services here are absolutely terrible. To start with, the water temperature in the bathrooms is out of control—it either turns boiling hot or ice cold randomly, with no way to adjust it. I’ve also found that the room itself was in poor condition when I moved in, requiring some basic repairs. Yet despite repeated complaints, the maintenance team has been completely unresponsive and unhelpful. The staff here is generally unaccommodating and often unwilling to help. For example, I’ve reported multiple times that items have gone missing from my kitchen shelves, but they’ve done absolutely nothing to address this issue. Perhaps most concerning is the lack of security at Beech House. There’s no dedicated reception at this location, and at night, there’s zero staff on-site. If you need anything after hours, you have to go all the way to Dorset House, which is also closed at night. This poor security led to my room being broken into, resulting in stolen items and cash worth £4500-£5000. When I reported the incident, they shrugged off all responsibility and told me to contact my insurance. If you’re considering Beech House, my advice is simple: don’t. There are far better options out there. I deeply regret choosing this accommodation—it’s been a nightmare from start to finish.

DON'T STAY HERE. Stayed here my first two years of uni because friends were there and I am so glad to be out of it and in Brookes Accommodation. The kitchen in my second year (B Block) was far too small, basically completely unusable for ten people, and the flat looked like it had not been cleaned at all when I moved in in my first year. We were left entirely without heating in the kitchen from December-June in my first year, as well. The most egregious thing was that the lighting in my room in my second year (2023-24) was broken, and when turned on (if you could get it to come on at all, which could not be done from the door) would flicker and flash badly. Bear in mind that this was in the accessible room, which I was staying in because of (amongst other things) autism, light sensitivity and balance issues. I had to cross my room in the pitch dark to turn on the lamp when I got home after lectures. Despite submitting a report in October, my lighting was not fixed throughout the year and, as far as I know, is probably still broken. I emailed to ask for compensation as this had had a significant impact on my ability to study in my room, as well as my safety, and - after being told that it was being taken "seriously" in August - have been left without word for two months, despite sending follow-up emails. This place clearly does not care about it's occupants at all. I must say, however, that I found the cleaning and maintenance team to be friendly and responsive - when they were actually told about issues, which didn't seem to happen very often, with many of my complaints being marked "complete" with no visit or note from maintenance.

Avoid this place at all costs. I have never encountered such untrustworthy people as the team at "Uninist." I ordered bedding for £189, only to discover after a month that they used new sheets to cover old blankets and pillows! I essentially paid for nothing. Now, they’re refusing to accept my complaint, claiming I should have checked it in the first few days. Look at the images—I've been sleeping on this awful bedding for a month without realizing it. Completely unacceptable!

Its the third time in this weather that the hot water has gone and, none in the kitchen! The oven broke and was without repairs till the end of the month in Dec. Wonder who gives them good reviews? Book if you want but your room will not be clean when you arrive with mould in the kitchen and the bath! Your packages wil get delayed sometimes as there is no reception on site at Beech house. The sound in the inner courtyard and the parties can keep you up.In one instance it got rowdy, the night duty would yell us to call the police! It spoiled my experience of moving to Oxford!

Safe but soulless place to live. You will be ripped off badly, Unite Students is just the most awful company to deal with and will make you question what it is you are paying for. Take it from somebody who has lived with them for 2 years in 2 different buildings. The staff however are truly wonderful and make the time living there much more bearable. The maintenance staff and front desk people do their best with what they are given with a smile and they made most of the positive memories of this place. The fee taking washing machines in the building are truly awful and such low quality they can only really get away with using them on students. The rooms are the only acceptable thing. The key cards are such a pain and the electromagnetic door locks malfunction.
