No wifi, day 2, no explanation of when there will be WiFi, if you’re working from home expect extremely unreliable to no WiFi and no answers to when it will be returned. This accommodation seems to have more flaws daily. Disgruntled.

I stayed with Nido during 2019-2020 and had a great experience. The facilities and location are good but mostly the staff is super nice and helpful. Having such nice people around you makes the whole experience so much better especially since most of the students come from different places and are new to the city. What I especially really appreciated at Nido was that when things started to get somewhat crazy with COVID-19 they handled it so well. Compared to other student accommodations Nido went out of their way to make things easier for the students. Would definitely recommend this place:)

It was an incredible experience to stay here! It made my experience in Cambridge way more valuable and enjoyable! The facilities had a great quality and it was a peaceful place. All the staff was helpful and cheerful. In addition, it is located on one of the best places of the city, just 10 minutes away from the city centre! Definitely a good choice!

This is a review of what happened in Nido West Hampstead. Their actions and treatments towards students, whether current residents or temporarily moved-out, are hugely disappointing. The accommodation saw the COVID - 19 outbreak as an opportunity to undertake their construction work. Here are several poor, ridiculous, and concerning decisions they have made: 1. Having packaging workers to pack and move students' items with or without their consents. The majority of the students at this time went back home for their families to evade the pandemic, yet they found it reasonable to invade students' privacy for their own benefits. 2. Many of these packaging workers lacked the discipline of conducting safe distancing. They came in-and-out of student's flats every day posing a high risk of spreading the virus to students who were still residing and quarantining at Nido. Many of these workers didn't even have a mask or gloves on. 3. The receptionists were ordered not to receive mails/packages due to their safety measures. Poor handling of Nido has created a frustrating experience and resulted in many return / lost cases of students' packages. If Nido has the kindness to treat their employee with such safety discipline (not expressing that they shouldn't), they should consider an equal treatment to their residents. These are the three main issues I personally have experienced, many other fellow residents have complained about other more on issues like tenancy agreement. I cannot elaborate on this, but Nido, a word of advice, you should probably listen to your future promoters and investors for once. Nido, do better. Your handling of this pandemic has completely worsened everyone's experience here and the expectation of your guys.

The way they have treated students during the Pandemic is completely unacceptable! They plan on taking our belongings to a storage facility in Reading, making the rooms we have paid for (thousands of pounds) unavailable to us; and refuse to give us a refund at this time. All they care about is money, not the safety and security of its residents at this terrifying time. I am ashamed by the way they have acted. They don't even reply to emails and the phone line disconnects when you select option 2 (calls about your residence). Its shameful.

Despite an aesthetically pleasing building, and intelligent marketing the actual experience leaves much to be desired. -Substantial delays in constructing the gym, despite the instant availability of a games room. -Constant issues left unresolved (Broken TVs, Broken washing machine, Broken Karaoke equipment, Blocked drains, No hot water, Overly sensitive fire alarms) All of this happening while publicity events with free food/alcohol are in full swing, handily professionally photographed and smeared all over social media. -Refusal to act upon suggestions of tenants to improve the accommodation in a practical manner in favour of spending on useless decorations such as neon signs. If you favour a sparkly appearance over a place that cares for its tenants, come to Nido Student. If you value the odd event such as sushi making or beer pong, over a well maintained and properly run accommodation, choose Nido Student. Let it be known that for these issues I do not blame the staff on the ground, such as night staff, cleaners or maintenance workers. It’s ineffectual management and senior management. I blame a warped business plan, a predatory ethos regarding attracting international students and an a “profit before people” approach. Considering the price of the rent, it’s not much to ask for there to be more than 6 washing machines between 300+ Tenants. Despite being relatively trendy and at a stretch cool, avoid this company if you value function over frivolity. Edit: all other reviews at time of writing are from individuals contracted to Nido Student. I’m sure these are their personal views but it should be noted that they are employed by Nido Student. Review regarding Nido Student - Boyce House.

This is my first year at Cambridge and Castle Hill. They've got modern rooms and facilities, such as common room, gym, places to store bikes, etc. Staff here is also friendly and helpful. What differs castle hill from my previous accommodations is that castle hill holds various activities across the year, like the breakfast day on first Tuesday of every month, decoration for Christmas and flowers for Valentines day! There is also a GP (the Huntingdon Road Surgery) just opposite the property. Also 5 mins walk to Aldi and Island, 1min to Midan world food shop. I would recommend this property for students who are looking for a safe and comfy place to live.
