“I have had the most wonderful time at Vita this year. The staff are all absolutely incredible - especially Georgia and Haley, who always go above and beyond to make sure everyone is happy and comfortable. The facilities are amazing, and the events are always so much fun. I couldn't have asked for a better place to live during my time at university.”

“I have stayed in vita for over a year now, and I have loved every second of it! I especially love the events, ever since Georgia has been hosting it is so much fun and I have made so many friends. The staff are so friendly and helpful, and the facilities are top-notch. I would highly recommend Vita to anyone looking for student accommodation in York.”

“Georgia is the best for the following reasons, she’s by far the most friendliest staff and also made me feel welcome in this studying abroad experience. She’s always there to help and support, and the events she organizes are always a highlight. The accommodation itself is clean, modern, and has everything you need.”

“A real resident, a real experience, and an honest review. Since moving into Vita York in September last year, I have had a great experience. My favourite part is the events that are held regularly, which have allowed me to meet new people and make friends. The staff are always friendly and willing to help, and the facilities are excellent.”
