Richard Mays, St Andrews
5 ★★★★★
Landlord rating
Richard is a fair and responsible landlord. If something needed fixing - lights, washing machines, shelves - he would get it sorted at most within a week - usually it was quicker. He is understanding of our situations as tenants and this was 100% proven during the Coronavirus lockdown, where he allowed me to extend my lease over the summer despite me already giving notice. As he doesn't live in St Andrews, he gives a wardennial type role to one of the tenants: this person has a master key to all the rooms and tests the fire alarms weekly. He also gave us some supplies to have a flat-warming party and get to know each other, which was a very kind gesture!

10 Hope Street, St Andrews, St Andrews
4 ★★★★☆
Property rating
The property is 16 rooms, mostly en-suite except for the 4 basement rooms (which share 2 bathrooms and a shower room). We share 2 kitchens (2 fridges, 2 stoves, a dishwasher, a washing machine and a tumble dryer in each) and generally had no issues, except for general cleanliness that can't really be avoided in a house with 16 people - cleaners came every 1-2 months to do the common areas which definitely helped, and they have a lovely little dog called Alfie who's bound to bring a smile to your face! The only thing that could be improved was the lack of cupboard/countertop space meant things accumulated in the spaces that were free. We had to donate a huge amount of stuff that had been left by previous tenants over the years (plates, cutlery, pots and pans, foodstuffs in the freezer) in order to free up space for our own things at the start of the lease.

4 ★★★★☆
Area rating
Hope Street is incredibly central - it takes about 3 minutes to walk to Tesco and even less time to get to the Student Union. We have access to a neighbourhood garden/park situated between Howard Place and Hope Street.
We didn't have any major issues with neighbors - the surrounding flats (in 9 and 11) were occupied by students so it could sometimes get loud if they hosted parties, but no more than our flat. There's also a self-proclaimed Unpaid Bin Warden who pushes your bins into your doorway if you don't bring them in quick enough after bin collection which is a bit passive aggressive, but manageable.
