Is there a discount if a group of us want to book a full apartment?

While they don't have a group discount scheme, from time to time they have special deals and other promotions which may be in place when you are booking (eg.Refer a Friend and Early Bird promotions) so please ask their property manager if any of these will apply to your booking.

Can I choose a specific room?

In all cases you can choose a specific room type. Dependant on the property, you may also be able to choose a specific room of your choice. Please contact the property for details.

Who will I be allocated with?

They try their utmost to allocate likeminded students together (eg based on year of study). Single-sex apartments are also available. However, this is subject to the type of rooms booked by their students and may not always be possible.

Can I request a room move if I do not get along with the people I am sharing with?

They will always first try to establish if there is anything that can be done to help you and your housemates to live in harmony without anyone moving room. However, move requests will be accommodated whenever possible, subject to availability and a cleaning/admin charge.

Please review your license agreement which clearly details rent due dates for your property. Full details are available on request from your chosen property.
