    • What Happens If I Want To Cancel My Booking

    Get in touch and tell us straight away. How much we can help will depend on the timing and the circumstances of your cancellation.
    Licence Agreements are legally binding, so once you have signed and returned your contract, you're required to pay your rent. If (under special circumstances only) you need to withdraw from the Licence Agreement, we'll try to find a replacement Licensee for your room, but we can't guarantee we'll be able to. If a new Licensee is found, then we can release you from your licence, but there will be a re-licence fee*. If you require a copy of the re-licence terms and conditions, please get in touch with us.

  • Guarantor

    • Guarantor

    If you want to pay your rent in instalments, we accept both UK and International guarantors. This is someone willing to sign a contract saying they’ll pay your rent if you fail to do so. Your guarantor cannot be another student or the government. In the circumstances where you do not have a guarantor, you can register with Housing Hand, who will act as a guarantor, subject to meeting their terms and conditions.
    Alternatively, you will need to pay your rent for the whole Licence Agreement/AST in advance.

Do You Need a Guarantor?

Most landlords and letting agents require a UK-based guarantor. Without one, you may be asked to pay your full year's rent upfront. To help students navigate this, we've partnered with Housing Hand, which can provide a recognised certificate of rental guarantee, giving both you and your landlord peace of mind.

It's worth knowing that several of our student halls don't require a UK-based guarantor at all, allowing students to pay rent in convenient instalments instead. To find out which properties qualify and how to get started, reach out to our team. We're happy to guide you through the booking process from start to finish.

    If you are looking for a place to start a new life and not feel like you are left alone being an international student, I would recommand to book a place in Central Quay. The staff are lovely, extremely hard to just praise one. They make sure that you are doing well. You can always contact your reception people for anything you might want to know. Make sure to pick out a good view room so that you can wake up to a beautiful sunrise that will definitely make your day. All the other amenities you might need are top-notch!

    This is the first place I stayed in after coming to the UK and it is the best. All the staff are very friendly and helpful. All the necessary facilities are provided. Rooms are clean and bright. Many festivals are celebrated and there are many events held which gives us an opportunity to interact with other students. This place is a home away from home ❤️

    Central Quay is a very positive place. The staff are kind and friendly. Any problems you have, you can go and talk to the staff about, they will do what they can to make things better for you. They have clear rules of how to treat the premises all over and that helps with the feeling of safety. There are cameras which track who comes in and out of the buildings. The staff are very good with handling parcels. I've had to be away from my accommodation for a few days and my parcel didn't get lost and I was able to collect it with ease. I had to show who I was as a safety precaution. Very good communication, very kind area and positive environment. If you ever get locked out of your room after losing your card or key, there are posters up of the number you can call, help usually comes straight away!

    I have had a really good experience staying here. The accommodation genuinely feels like home, and I never felt completely away from home because of the friendly environment and regular social activities. The festival celebrations were especially meaningful, as they helped me feel connected and comfortable during times when I missed home the most. The staff are really nice, helpful, and approachable. They are always open to discussing any concerns and try their best to resolve issues quickly. I really appreciate Charlie, Lisa, and all the other staff members for their support and kindness. The location is also excellent. It is in a calm and beautiful area near Kelham Island, while still being very close to Sheffield city centre. It usually takes only around 10–15 minutes to reach Sheffield Hallam University or the heart of the city, which is very convenient. In terms of security and management, the place is well organised and feels safe. The only area that could be improved is cleaning, especially outside window cleaning, and more regular cleaning of the kitchen and communal areas within the flat at a fixed time rest of the area are excellent and clean. Overall, I found this place very good value for money and would definitely recommend it to other students.
