Canvas Walthamstow, London

i’ve been 1 month in this residence and everything is fantastic, the facilities, the gym and the rooms they are incredible, the kitchen has all, dishes, cutlery, glasses… and the personal in the residence they’re nice, i want to highlight the attention received by Paula and Curshele, they are professional and very attentive to the guest.

I find all of the staff very supportive, there are plenty of opportunities to socialise if that’s what you want to do, the rooms are nice and the area is full of things to do (especially if you thrift half as much as I do).

Fantastic student accommodation in a great location. Moved in for the September 2025 intake, spent weeks looking where best to move in and the reviews for this place stood out so thought I'd add my own. The staff are really what make this place stand out, I have other friends living in postgrad accommodation in London and are hating it, mainly due to the rude staff... this place doesn't have that issue! Special shout out has to go to Jade and new recruit Kurshele where no job is too big or inconvenient. Would highly recommend this accommodation for anyone looking to move into east London, the Victoria line being so close is also ideal.

I really like this residence. I’ve lived here for both my undergraduate and master’s studies, a total of three years, and naturally, I chose to stay here again. Firstly, because I’ve gotten used to it, and secondly, although there are cars outside, the soundproofing is excellent, so sleeping is never a problem. The facilities are extremely clean, and the studio is very spacious. I especially enjoy everything about living here. My favorite part is the kitchen in the studio – it’s big and long, which makes it very convenient. I stayed in the Gold Studio, which is a larger room type. In the beginning, I lived in a Platinum Studio, and in my third year, I switched to Gold. I loved both equally. All maintenance requests can be submitted online, and someone always comes the next day to fix them – super convenient. If I really have to point out a downside, it would be that in summer, when the window is open, insects sometimes fly in, and without air conditioning, it can get hot. But overall, I like it very much. In winter, there are no issues at all. The services are available 24/7, and the staff here are always polite and helpful.

The front desk staff are amazing. They are always friendly, professional, and very helpful whenever I have questions or need assistance. They respond quickly and make everything so much easier. Really appreciate their support — it makes living here a great experience!
