Bournemouth
This is my 2nd year living here, I decided to rebook for my final year at university due to the great amenities and amazing staff members who made me feel at home and supported. Kelly, Nora and Ben are the most helpful people ever and are always available to help with anything or even just have a chat.

Staying at The Helix in Wembley Park has been an incredible experience! The accommodation is modern, clean, and thoughtfully designed for students. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, with plenty of storage and a great study space. The communal areas are fantastic – perfect for relaxing or socializing with friends. The location is unbeatable, with easy access to public transport, shops, and restaurants. The staff are always friendly and helpful, making the place feel like a home away from home. The Helix truly provides a safe, convenient, and vibrant environment for students. I highly recommend it to anyone studying in London!

This could be the most comfort apartment in Southampton! I truly love the karaoke room and the balcony on the top floor. Amazing view and everything is new and modern.
