I'm loving my stay here at Central Studios! Tracey is so accommodating and kind especially during the renovation going on at the moment! The location is so convenient, two minutes away from the train station and two away from the shopping centre! Even the washing machines are so much better than my previous accommodation!

Amazing accommodation with a lovely cozy feel. Tracey in reception goes above and beyond to resolve any issues, and makes you feel so welcome and comfortable. I couldn’t recommend more!!

The staff are extremely helpful which is always valuable. I wouldn't mind sacrifing proximity to certain amenities for a reduced rent. I think the room could be ventilated a lot better. The floor boards feel weak and creak all the time when you walk. The ensuite bathrooms could definitely be bigger and the drainage could be better. I really like the quite and the internet is really strong and consistent. I wouldn't mind more machines in the laundry or a bigger space. I feel a bit disappointed at the price considering the overall quality, however, I understand the commercial obligations.

Living in this student accommodation has been a genuinely positive experience. The location is incredibly convenient, with easy access to the public transport, and nearby shops, which made day-to-day life much smoother. The room itself was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed for student needs. the management team are responsive, helpful, and quick to resolve any issues and veryyyyyyy nice especially Simon and Tracey Overall, I would highly recommend this accommodation to any student looking for a comfortable, safe, and well-managed place to live during their studies.

Nice rooms but quite poor management. The front gate is broken for ages which is supposed to have card access needed. The reception would not open at weekends so to bear in mind that the parcels may not be handled and stored properly during weekends, it's also not open 24/7 so out of the times there's only security on-site handle emergencies. It's also worrying that it does not mention the details of the company and their tasks to do when the dorm needs access to rooms for checking.
