As an international student heading to the UK, I honestly didn’t know what the “ideal” student accommodation looked like. I only figured it out after scrolling through social media and seeing real students share their experiences in Leicester. That’s when I came across CODE Student Accommodation. A friend recommended it soon after, which made me even more curious, and the more I learned, the more it felt like the right choice.
Yes, the location, amenities, and inclusions are great, but what really stood out was the sense of community. CODE isn’t just about having a room to stay in, it’s about creating a space where students can connect, join events, and feel at home, even when they’re miles away from yours.
Preparing for Move-In
The move-in process so far has been a smooth experience. Reserving a room, settling payments, and asking for guidance were all met with support and quick responses. The team made everything hassle-free, which really eased my worries.
I’ve started building a checklist of things I’ll need in my room, both essentials and little comforts, and the advice I’ve received from CODE has been so helpful. Instead of stress, I feel excitement. And the way the staff share in that enthusiasm with you makes it even more special.
Looking Ahead as a Future Resident
What I’m most looking forward to isn’t just living in a new space, but experiencing the community. It’s not only about having a good location or modern facilities, it’s about the people, the atmosphere, and the connections I’ll get to build. That’s what makes CODE stand out to me, and why I’m so excited to call it home soon.
