Canvas Manchester River Street Tower

Lived here for over a year and all the staff were very friendly and so supportive. Any questions or needs they were there really quickly. I lived with some really lovely people and had a lovely room and living spaces. Would recommend!

I have stayed at Manchester court this year and I can’t say enough good things the team really helped me out if I had any issues no matter how big or small they where on hand to help Jorden, Zoe and Sam where great and a credit to the place. Would definitely use again. 10/10

Girls there give good head

Since living here I’ve found the location is really good, it’s close to multiple tram stops and is close to the Arndale which is great for food shopping and other things. The people in the office are lovely and really nice to chat to! If there are issues and you send emails across, they tend to get dealt with as quick as they can and sometimes things like vouchers are given out for when problems occur.

Only moved in this year, but found it ok. Communications have been ok and maintenance have been good dealing with issues quite quickly. Rooms are a little tired but they are trying to update. Location is fantastic.

I've lived at this accommodation for about 2 years, two separate rooms and have just rebooked for year 3! In what flats I have stayed in, there have been 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (one with a shower and one with a bath) and a kitchen. The room I stayed in my first year was quite large, I managed to be able to fit a air mattress inside, which I used as a sofa in my room. My second year room is slightly smaller but still cosy to live in. You get a desk and a pretty big wardrobe in each bedroom. The kitchens are slightly outdated in my opinion but have a lot of room, plus a TV and 2 sofas. The bathrooms are quite small, but it's easy enough for a quick shower and is relatively clean. It's simple enough for easy accommodation, plus it's a five minute walk from the city centre. The only complaints I do have is a lot of the time there are staff shortages which lead to the office being closed a lot of the time, and the app they give you sometimes doesn't work when reporting an issue. We did have a few issues recently with plumbing, but they have been getting sorted out quicker, and there haven't been as many problems as my previous year staying here. There is no lift, which can be difficult for getting to the 4th floor of the building which I have found difficult to climb sometimes after longer walks or with shopping/heavy bags or suitcases. Overall, if you are considering living here, it's not luxury, but it is good for if you're just looking for somewhere simple close to your university or want to be near the city centre.

Really good location. But a tired interior, you get what you pay for. A lift would have helped for easier access to fourth floor. Maintenance was sometimes slow and caused an inconvenience (our shower is yet to be fixed, having been broken for a month). Contacting staff was sometimes difficult- the office was closed often. However Nicola was really nice and helpful at the end of my stay.

I stayed here my first year and it was pretty decent. The location was definitely my fav part. The room sizes are great, however the accom is a bit out dated, the bathroom and kitchen areas are quite small and pretty dirty (before we arrived), but the size isn’t too bad as it’s only shared with 3 others

Alarm was not good. Continue working in night

If 0 stars was an option it would be that. I wouldn’t move back here if my life depended on it, all rooms full of mould, everything broken and doesn’t get fixed when reported multiple times. You may as well live with the rats that are at the bins and run around the building, someone else came back to a dead one in their kitchen sink a few months ago. The office is open a total of 15 mins a week if you’re lucky and they also allow people to go in your flat without permission or notifying you. Fire alarms go off constantly and it takes 3+ hours for someone to come turn them off no matter what the time is.

Don’t recommend living here, plenty better places, the only thing desirable is its location and close proximity to arnedale and printworks. Complete rip off and waste of money.

this accommodation is sub standard. unstable and insufficient management that have changed positions 3 times in my tenancy. no support to students living here in awful conditions.

almost DIED living here from the mould it took them ages to sort out that continuously grew in my room had two leaks in my room our kitchen ceiling literally COLLAPSED our freezer broke for ages ruining our food and they did nothing about it bathrooms with no working locks toilets don’t flush dirty marks on the walls since the day of entry hinges on cupboards and wardrobes broken these people actually don’t care if you live or breathe as long as you pay their extortionate rent for the PRISON that is manchester court was the worst thing about first year don’t put yourself through it trust me

Don’t book to live here even if your life depends on it… Fire alarms go off all the time and they take a good hour or so to turn them off. Ordering something online? Don’t. They close the office as and when they feel like it and it’s not open on weekends. As of writing this today the office has been closed for two days and is now going to be closed for another three. The windows are filthy, there are holes in the walls, the place is dirty, yet they have the nerve to constantly send us passive aggressive emails about cleanliness. Don’t live here. Go spend your money somewhere else this place is going to the dogs.

This place is absolutely awful I do not recommend living here. The staff are rude and walk into your flat as soon as they knock and do not give you any notice. I have been in bed and they have walked in on me and woke me up.There was mould on the ceilings and they were never in, they only work for 15 minutes a day, so you can get no parcels. It’s like living in a prison cell. Fire alarms go off all the time. DO NOT LIVE HERE!

DO NOT LIVE HERE!! Less likely to catch a disease living in a skip than living in this place. There is mold on the ceilings and bathroom the place id set out to look like cell blocks. Felt like prisoner in a cell. Maintenance would walk in whenever they please without knocking you could be naked and they still wouldn’t care. Invasion on privacy if you ask me. Disgusting

This accommodation is bad.
