If you have any other preferences, please mention these during the booking process and we’ll do our best to make these happen.
Can I bring my pet?
Unfortunately, we don’t allow pets at Almero Student but some of our properties have furry friends that like to hang out nearby. Birmingham for example has a sweet cat called Darcy who will be only too pleased to say hi.
Do I need a tv license?
Almero has covered the cost of TV licences in the common areas so feel free to watch TV in the kitchen, living room and our common rooms but if you want to watch TV (including BBC on-demand) in your room you will need to purchase a TV licence. The fines are expensive so we recommend applying for a licence
Can my friend stay at my accommodation / in my room?
Your friends are more than welcome to visit you at your accommodation at Almero Student - we ask that you limit any overnight stays to no more than 3 consecutive nights in one week and make sure that your flatmates are happy with having your friends stay over.
Can I rent accommodation on a short term basis or over the summer?
Yes! We have a limited number of short term rooms and summer rooms available, please book as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. They are popular with group bookings for language schools or nearby courses so booking early is advised to avoid disappointment.
Some is broken. What should I do?
Please report any maintenance requests nd we will ensure it gets repaired. We aim to have everything fixed as quickly as possible, but we’ll keep in touch to let you know what is happening and when.
What do I need with me / What should I pack?
Pack anything that will make your new home feel just like your old home. We include a mattress but you’ll need to bring your favourite bedding as well as pillows and a duvet. Many students include familiar photos in their packing to help them settle in and personalise their rooms.
Each kitchen has a kettle and toaster already so don’t worry about these appliances. If you’re moving into a cluster we recommend waiting until you’ve met all your flatmates and then shopping together for items such as cutlery, crockery and other household bits and bobs.
