Am I allowed to have guests to stay?

You are welcome to have guests through the daytime, and an overnight guest for a reasonable amount of nights. You'll need to get permission from management for an extended period. They will need to provide a form of ID to check in through your resident portal, and you will be responsible for them throughout their stay. Please note, you will also need written consent from management if your overnight guest is under 18 years of age.

How secure is the accommodation?

They have CCTV in and around each property, an electronic key entry system for the main entrance, common areas, each flat and bedroom. There is also staff on site 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Will I need to pay council tax?

In the UK, students are exempt from paying council tax – you won’t need to pay this, but if the council do mistakenly bill you, you will need to provide details to prove that you are in full time education.

Do I need a tv licence?

If you bring your own TV, or want to watch or record programmes as they are shown live (including on mobile phones, tablets or computers), you will need to apply and pay for a TV License. This also includes TV's provided by the management.

What if something in my flat breaks?

If you’re having any problems with your room, a shared living space, or one of the communal areas, you have two options. You can log the issue using the resident portal, providing details so their maintenance team can get this sorted for you as soon as possible.

Hi, I'm Akshit Dhawan, and I’ve been staying at Canvas City Point since September 2024 while studying at Coventry University. My experience here has been incredible! The room is really spacious, and the cozy kitchen with a TV makes it feel super comfortable. The cinema room is ideal for movie nights, and the staff is super friendly and helpful. They often organize events, like pizza and dessert nights, which are the perfect way to relax and enjoy some social time. Plus, the study room is perfect for getting work done. I surely recommend Canvas City Point for any student looking for a comfortable and vibrant place to live because its definitely 5/5!
