Yasmin Button
I moved to Southampton for post graduate study and was adamant I did not want a studio flat or to live in student accommodation. However, I stumbled across this place and asked reception for a viewing just to check out all my options and I instantly knew this is where I wanted to be. The staff have been so kind right from the start. They have not hesitated in fixing any maintenance logs as soon as possible. Even if something could not be fixed immediately, they contacted me to let me know why and when they expect the repairs. The location is perfect, being a walkable distance to the centre and train station. It is close to the bus stop where lots of buses come by, so this location is very well connected. The communal areas are amazing, the sky deck being my personal favourite, and everywhere is kept very clean. The whole building is also very safe and secure. This is a bit more expensive than other student accommodation, but in my experience is well worth the price.

I’ve had a great experience living here. The staff are consistently friendly, patient, and professional, and their service attitude really makes a difference. Cleaning is done promptly and to a high standard, so both my room and shared spaces feel well maintained. Whenever I’ve had an issue, it has been handled quickly, with fast and clear responses to maintenance requests. The public areas have a welcoming, positive atmosphere that feels safe and comfortable. A special highlight is the balcony view—beautiful and relaxing, especially at sunrise and sunset. Highly recommended.
G Kim
The best place to choose after coming to study in the UK. The location is very good which is in the city center; the apartments are very complete and luxurious, and it is very comfortable to stay here; of course, the services of Eliza and Steve are also very good, and the parties and other activities will be organized every holiday. Deserved the best Southampton student residence. luv that place very much !!
