Whilst we haven’t actually moved in yet I wanted to say that if the experience of actually living at the Pad is half as good as the amazing admin team in Egham, I am sure my son’s year will be his best year yet.   Nothing has been too much trouble for Sharon, Lucy and the team there and it has made me hugely confident that my son will be very happy living there.

Really really nice place to stay if you’re going to RHUL. It is right next door and the place looks great after they’ve refurbed itnnThe team are so lovely. big shout out to Yara and Min for always being there to help me and for accommodating all my requests. I was very worried at the start of the year especially when they announced they will have construction going on during exams but it was done very well. Yara was always there and explained the process to me multiple times and she put my mind at ease about my belongings and what the place looks like now was very worth it. Min was also there to help with anything that went wrong in my room and it’s always been fixed before I could think about it. There’s also a few new people I haven’t had the chance to get to know yet but I’m sure they would be just as amazingnnOnly problems were with hot water sometimes and the security people weren’t always very helpful and there were proboems with wifi sometimes but it still is a lovely place to staynnI’m very sad that I won’t be here again as i’d have loved to enjoy the new spaces!

With the cheapest room being over £230 pounds a week, you would expect to have a premium living experience. Unfortunately, my experience has been everything BUT pleasant. Staff would be able to use their key card to enter in and out of your room without notice even while you were not present in your room. They have also began construction DURRING exam season forcing students to relocate under short notice. They give you three measly boxes to pack your stuff and expect you to return them once you come back which I find to be quite tacky to say the least. Not only do they disrupt you during this crucial time, they also don't clean your room after renovations so you are expected to deal with the new paint smell, concreate dust and dirty floors AND still bring back their THREE CARDBOARD BOXES. Overall, terrible experience for the price. Would not recommend.

I’ve had a great time at the pad. Not sure where all the negativity is coming from in the othr reviews. The staff are so nice, Min the maintenance guy is so quick to fix things as soon as I report it and the people at reception are always going out of their way to help. just had a refurb as well so the kitchens and rooms look much better than before.nnIt’s also 2 secs from the uni and like 10 minutes walk down to the town

My experience so far at the pad has been great. Reading the other reviews I'm not sure where all of these issues are coming from as my experience has been smooth from the beginning. I have had the occasional cold shower or minor issue in my room but they are usually quick to help out. Having spoken to my friends living on campus and being woken up at 5am every morning to fire alarms or their radiators not working, it has definitely paid off choosing here. There have been some recent staffing changes but the new team is so friendly and they always remember your name. If any inspections are needed they will email you in advance and encourage you to talk to them if there are any issues.nnI would definitely recommend a studio at the pad if you're not keen on sharing with 8-15 people on campus!
