After 10 months of living here, I thought I’d leave a review on this video since it’s getting so many views: If you’re a student in Bloemfontein and are thinking of living here, I’d say keep looking for another place. This place is nice but the way it’s managed is absolutely awful and the monthly rent is way too high to look over any of these discrepancies. The wifi is terrible and some say it’s allegedly been terrible for the past 6 years. A bad wifi connection will disturb your academic activities - People have literally been signed out of their online tests on many occasions, causing them to fail because the test only allowed for 1 try. They just keep promising that they’ll fix it but they haven’t even after all these years. You pay to do your laundry and it’s ridiculously expensive (it’s cheaper to just go to a laundry place). Each load costs R50 to wash and dry. I spend R200 because I was by colour. Sometimes it’s R250 to R300 when I decide to wash my rugs as well. I do my laundry twice a month so sometimes I spend R400 and other times I spend R600. This is on top of the rent that you pay (the lowest you can pay for rent is R50600 per year - R4600 per month - and the highest is R84700 per year - R7700 per month - depending on your room choice). I also had to get my own router because the wifi never works. That’s another expense on top of my rent amount. Breakages aren’t fixed in a timely manner. I know of someone whose fridge would allegedly😅 continuously freeze their food and nothing was done about this for a very long time, so their food kept going to waste. They’re very strict about collecting their payments though. People have allegedly had their fingerprints disabled for access after not paying their rent in a timely manner. It’s also quite noisy but I guess that makes sense since it’s a student accommodation. The gyms are wayyyyy too small and don’t have enough equipment in my opinion. Some of the equipment is also quite old. If this will bother you then you’ll probably pay to go to another proper gym. Another expense that you honestly shouldn’t have. There are “heaters” in the rooms but those things are 100% useless. They do not heat up the rooms AT ALL and they prohibit students from bringing their own heaters. If they find out you have a heater or notice that you’re using way too much electricity because of an extra heater, they will fine you R500. So it gets pretty cold in winter and they could care less. If you have a car, you pay for parking. Again, the monthly rent is way too high/expensive for all these extra expenses that they charge. It’s completely unreasonable considering how they don’t actually offer premium/luxury accommodation like they claim to (in my opinion). They oversell themselves. The only thing I can give them a s/o for is that the student accommodation at groenewoud doesn’t experience load shedding because there’s a back-up power supply. The one at logeman does experience load shedding though so there’s that. Both are in Bloemfontein. The buildings are also very close to campus, this is more convenient for people who don’t have their own cars. It’s also quite safe - you get fingerprint access. Other than aesthetics and it being close to campus, I don’t think this place has anything else to offer. Do with this information what you will but this is my review. I think the name of the place is mentioned in the comment section so just browse through there to see.
This is what I've been saying, the only thing this place offers us is aesthetics, either than that it's a pretty crappy place to live at. I'm definitely not staying here next year.
I really enjoyed this tour...I’m soo obsessed with interior decor...your room is cute and I definitely got some inspiration for my study table New subbie❤️💃🏽
New subbie here🥺❤️ Doll where did you get those pictures on your wall by your study area .really love them❤️ Your room is so amazing yhoo ..I'm literally crying 😭😫🔥🔥
At least your CK has 3/4 beds that are like are like leveled high . Our Ck😭😭😭 ,the beds are so low , but atleast I got a tv in my room😂💃💃💃... anyways I love your room and now I got ideas on how to decorate my room
Yea the high beds allow for storage at the bottom😅. A tv in my room would’ve been nice if dstv didn’t cost 2 million🤧. I just stream on my laptop or the tv in the lounge. I’m glad you enjoyed this video✨❤️
Hey, so i read your review on the place right, and wanted to ask whether you were at groenewoud or logeman. Also did you move to another accommodation.. im really considering moving to campus key next year because of the conveniences it offers, but now really reconsidering because of the numerous complaints, so i wanna check if maybe 1 of the campus keys is better
Student accommodation heaters are so useless, had to buy a fan heater at pick n pay.... It was on a sale when I bought it on Monday (R170) and it works wonders
Thank you. It’s called Campuskey. Here’s the link to their website with all the prices: campuskey.co.za/campuskey-observatory-assist-uct-student-housing-crises/?gclid=CjwKCAjwltH3BRB6EiwAhj0IUOVhXuadBBSDsJxvieeueb_hbe6PNpCPUiiSxgTPXemnHLeIZmNAHxoCNuIQAvD_BwE
