We’re sure you have some questions so take a look at our most asked…
It’s absolutely right to have lots of questions about living with Here!… here’s the best place to start quizzing us on how to book and what living with us is really like.
You simply click the Book button on the room you want. Once clicked, you come through to our online booking system in partnership with Fresh Student Living (our operational partners). Then just follow the steps. If you have any questions, want to book for this academic year or to book our short-term lets and summer stays, just contact the Residence Team at your chosen location.
Absolutely! You can choose the floor, flat and room numbers should you wish to. Our Residence Teams can advise you on the best room to suit your needs.
Of course. For locations with cluster flats, booking with your friends can easily be arranged. You just need to let us know who you want to live with and we can make sure you live together.
When booking your room you can see your flatmates’ gender, what year they’re in and where they’re studying. We don’t give out names for data protection, but you can always use our Facebook pages for each location to find and chat with your flatmates before you move in.
Around four weeks before the big day, you will be invited to book a move-in slot. You can choose the time that works best for you. If you have specific needs around accessibility or travel arrangements, please let us know at this stage.
£0. We don’t ask for deposits at any of our locations. In the unlikely event that you damage any items during your time with us, our Residence Team can sort that out separately.
For the 2022/23 academic year, you can cancel before 31st July 2022 with no penalty. Then bookings made after 1st August for the 2022/23 academic year have a 24-hour cooling-off period. To cancel, get in touch with the Residence Team at your chosen location.
We want you to love your time living with us, but we understand we might not always get it right. We take all complaints seriously and will try our best to fix any issues as soon as we are made aware of them. Speak to our Residence Team if you have any concerns. If you need help and advice about how to complain please take a look at our Complaints Procedure.
