The noise problem that the residents complained about last year and the hot water problem have been solved this year. If nothing else, it's really delicious to bring your own washing machine. You can wash clothes whenever you want, just pay attention to whether some clothes can be dried. The drying temperature is quite high, and some clothes can't stand that temperature and deform. The response to the repair report is also good. If anything breaks, it will be repaired from the mobile phone, and it will be repaired in a day or two. If the electrical appliance is broken, you can change it, even the refrigerator. The service and attitude at the front desk are great, and there are snacks from time to time.

Student Accommodation in Sheffield

How do you pay rent in University of Sheffield?

In order to pay rent in University of Sheffield, you have a couple of different options. Rents are usually offered on a weekly (ppw) and monthly (pcm) basis. You need to know that monthly rents are not the same as the total of 4 weeks of rent. Weekly rent and monthly rent are calculated in a different way. Another thing is, in most cases, you will need to pay a security or tenancy deposit upfront along with the monthly rent. This security or tenancy deposit fee would be an amount of four to six weeks of rent. This fee is refundable unless you make any kind of damage to the property.
