UNITE Student Accommodation – Beaumont Court

Horrible accommodation where the money you pay and what you get DO NOT MATCH. If you can live anywhere else, please do.

I currently live in the Blithehale location, but there is not a page for that particular building. Unite is the WORST housing company I have ever encountered. Do NOT live here. I really can’t stress that enough. I saw all the bad reviews online and thought it would be fine for the summer, but really– it’s not. The trash room is hardly ever emptied so the smell pours over into the lobby and elevators and is completely unbearable. The carpets are disgusting, the rooms are small, the staff emails back immediately when in the process of booking but don’t even bother trying to address an issue once you’ve moved in. I have contacted them several times about major issues (one of which being a drunk man who was NOT a resident and tried to follow me up to my room!) No response. I picked this location because I could walk to my internship but it would have been so worth it to take the tube everyday. It’s also not the open, friendly environment it claims to be. The rooms in our flat are off a separate hallway from the shared kitchen/​living area, so you could actually live there several weeks without ever encountering your roommate (if you have one– the place is pretty dead, I suspect because of their horrible management practices). London is a wonderful place to live, work, and study– don’t let Unite ruin any part of that. I will be telling everyone I know to stay far, far away from this company.
