Oh my god!! Where do I even start, first of the staff are so so wonderful!! I always feel so extremely happy to talk to them, even my little silly questions aren’t silly to them. They are the sweetest bunch of people, definitely the best 3 people to put together in a work place, I always love hearing them talking and joking around with each other it’s just so sweet, they have no negative energy at all! And the accommodation is so clean, it’s so refreshing to know how clean it is, the activities to do here are limitless! It is so fun and organised!! I currently live in a bronze studio, which is the smallest room in the accommodation, but it still has enough space for me and all my stuff, and I have a lot of stuff! The en suites are beautiful and so much more shelving space than I expected. I am moving into a platinum studio this year and I have never been more excited, it looks so nice, they clean every single room after someone stayed. And the other members on site, for example the cleaning staff, the maintenance staff and the night staff are so incredibly sweet! It’s been lovely to call this place home for my years staying here and will always have a major special place in my university experience. Thank you so much everyone who made my stay so easy and welcoming and safe. I wish the best for this accommodation.

Please do not be misled by all the five star reviews. It was mostly by people who created most of the ruckus in the place and others got the brunt of it! They also get chocolates or candies if left a good review and some (not all) of them are genuinely cheap to afford candies worth a couple pennies and instead steal it from the reception shamelessly along with the stuff that's supposed to be given for charity. I want this to be an honest and heartfelt review, unlike many of the ones that have been posted here. I'm trying to be as unbiased as I can. Focusing on some of the positives first, the place is very neat compared to many of the other areas has proper social and communal areas. They host many events and the team makes an effort to celebrate things towards the month. The WiFi works perfect, no water or electricity issues, maintenance team does a fantastic job getting the repairs and issues sorted, the accommodation app works well. Visitor parking is not too much of an issue either. Has great restaurants and places nearby, loads of other accommodations and convenience stores near. Security is always around. The room has a fantastic bathroom. Kitchen is normal sized and not too congested. The walls are thick and you will not hear another roommates talk in the next room, which is a big plus for privacy. Negatives: no ironing board or vacuum in each common room, which is honestly a bare minimum. Only one fridge and freezer for seven people in a room even when nearby accommodations that charge much lower have all of those necessities, including two fridges. Has creepy men who stay there who stare at you in the common area, especially South Asian men. The Circuit Go app charges MORE per wash compared to other accommodations by more than 20p per wash.   The people who mentioned that the rooms are big must be tripping cause they definitely have not visited other accommodations that have a much spacious room for a better price. If you're enrolled at Uni of Leeds, good luck as you need to climb a bajillion stairs to get there and you're almost dead halfway. People use both the lifts as a final saga competition to see who has the most foul garbage or fart or pot smell during the weekends. None of the people in the reception even smile at you or any other people of colour that are not white (we've all discussed about this) but are all smiles and waves and "you alright?" towards white people. Now tell me how that's not racism? The girl at the reception doesn't smile at anyone except white people, including the other two men. She looks like she'd rather work on a psych ward than having to deal with students by the sound of her exasperated sigh and eye roll if asked anything. The new GM always looks like he's held here against his will, looks pissed off 24/7, disgusted at the sight of residents, and is questioning every single life choice of his that has led him to work here. The tall skinny white guy who walks like a cartoon character is anywhere but the reception and is always clueless, confused and stares at you with his pupils dilated if you ask him anything. He even tries to run if anyone is trying to approach him. The same dude also somehow always catches people vaping in their flats, has the nose of a Basset Hound, God knows how. The management keeps changing securities on site like it's on a corporate speed date with the security company and the securities get fired for compatability issues. And suddenly the same securities appear out of nowhere again except for the bald black dude. The other black security speaks English so well that his accent will lowkey make you forget if you even know English. Can't use the study room cause all the loud, uncivilised men hoard there to watch games or talk shit. Can't use the play area as the same men creep you out. Can't use the swing area at night as someone on the first floor is a pot addict and the amount of smoke downstairs can borderline choke you. Amenities are fair here but living here is crazy.
