One of the nicest student accommodations in Loughborough is the Study Inn on Lemyngton Street. I've been living here for two months and have never had any problems. I'm now staying in a Gold studio, but even the ensuite apartments in this establishment are fantastic. The staff is really pleasant and always willing to assist. The premise's common space is excellent, and the amenities provided are far beyond what an international student could expect or ask for.
