The UNSW Village is great, and reception makes it such a easy experience! The apartments are nice and spacious, and if you ever need anything at all, like a new vacuum for example, just go down to reception and they will help you out. Especially Tan! She really cares about all the students living in the Village, and makes the Village feel like home when our real homes are so far away. And she always makes sure people know about the events or free food that the village offers! Overall great 4 months in the Village, and I would highly recommend living here.

UNSW Village is definitely the best place to live on the campus, combined with competitively lower rent and a great living environment. Various apartment types include premium studio to eight-bedroom apartments. I lived there for two years. However, it will be great if the Village can lower the cost of laundry.

Been living here for a week so far so good the staff are great and the student helper (RA team) are excellent. However im lucky to hv neat and friendly roomate which make things easier. The village team arrange frequent events for students to participate or just foodies to grab on. Ps they give out goodie bags upon the check-in date too 5/5 XD

One of the best accommodations on campus. UNSW village is definitely worth your stay. All the staff and RAs are super helpful and kind and I cannot think of a better home away from home. In addition, it more convenient to live at Village than elsewhere. It has a fantastic location, a few mins walk to gym, classes, library and restaurants. Would definitely recommend! Finally，many thanks to the best managers and friends，Miracle and Tan, who make every day a magical.

I hate to say this because the receptionists do try their best but even staying here solo in a studio has been a nightmare for me. My ceiling was sagging when I moved into my first studio, so I lodged a complaint. They came, did nothing and 'resolved' the issue. A few months later, a hole bursts through the sagging ceiling, and a swarm of ants come through and ravage through my belongings. They send someone to 'fix this' and the person just sprays ant powder all over my belongings, resulting in me throwing away a bunch of valuables. They tell me someone's coming to fix the hole, and guess what after two entire terms noone comes. Because of this I decided to move to a new studio up in a tower instead of the courtyard. Turns out there is no wifi. I lodge a complaint to Superloop and it takes them two weeks to 'send' a technician. The technician then delays it to the next week and when the week came, it's been delayed again to the week after. This is incredible because when I asked the receptionist, he told me the technician did give him a call and that he's been given approval to come to my room but now superloop is lying, claiming that village never gave them approval. This is contradictory because another person from superloop told me earlier to stay in my room for the whole day because the technician may be coming. What in tarnation is this Tom and Jerry lunacy. Mind you I've been paying 545 a week for four weeks now for some small room with NO WIFI! I may as well have snuck into the law library to sleep for free at least they have wifi and air conditioning. This place is full of deceit and would realistically have been sued into closure in any other country with decent residency laws. They do NOT answer to your emails, give you false words of security and don't actually do anything when it comes to severe complaints.

Terrible experience. The room was not properly cleaned before move-in. A staff member entered my room without knocking, had a rude attitude, and did a very careless cleaning job. The Wi-Fi has also been broken for over a week and still hasn’t been fixed despite multiple reports. Classes are about to start and there’s almost no mobile signal in my room. Completely unacceptable.

When I first moved in, the room was clean and the bed looked new. So that was a good impression. Very convenient since the location is on campus and close to many restaurants and grocery stores. There are many nice events every week. :) However, your roommates play big role on your experience here. For me, at first it was not bad, but now not very pleasant. The wall is thin and can hear some noise from roommates. Sadly, the room and location are very nice but your roommates really depend on your luck and affect your living conditions here. (Edit) Reply to the owner: Yes, true. Some of my roommates are my good friends now, but some are unable to get along with since they always make noise.

I had been living in village for 4 years. I am sorry to say but the last one year experience was really bad. The Village every 3-4 months conduct’s inspection to check if the tenants have kept the accommodation clean. It usually used to be chill as long as the accommodation was tidy (common sense) it was fine. But the past one year the RA would just find one small mess a paint stain (which is not our fault), few water droplets, plates on table, or a tilted mug on the shelf is enough to charge you with a $50 fine. It became a huge headache, especially I was in my final year of university where I was busy with work, thesis, and countless assignments. Furthermore, there were times, where there were multiple Internet issues, no water supply (including hot water issue), and lift maintenance for days. Additionally, It’s been almost a month and I haven’t received my security back. The reception RAs are not helpful they just give fake reassurance. I would strongly suggest international students to look for another accommodations.

When i first arrived in Australia and to Unsw Village I wasn’t expecting the treatment that I received from a student housing As i was told by my friends, that you come take your keys and stay in your room But things at UNSW Village are a bit different, On my 1st day i was showed around the whole village and its various facilities by the village manager himself , he took time out of his busy schedule and showed me my room and common area, laundry The RA’s and the staff are so nice and kind , always talking to you with a smile on their face always ready to help Even at 3am in the night, it doesnt matter to them what time it is , what matters is that you’re not facing any adversity living in this accommodation All of this combined with the monthly events and trips to different locations in Sydney Weekly food nights and sports events makes it a worthwhile stay at the village Especially if you have people like Mr Michael, Ms Miracle and Ms Tan You’re in good hands and I would recommend you to choose this accommodation

I would recommend any other accommodation possible for several reasons; the apartment was dirty when I first arrived, there was a cockroach infestation that took months for them to finally address, the fridge broke twice, the village events were lackluster, laundry facilities broke several times, and the apartment was constantly dusty. The only saving grace were the receptionists, who were actually really nice and tried to help as best they could, and the view, which was really pretty at sunset. Apart from those though, I absolutely cannot recommend AGAINST village enough.
