We don't list the places that pay us. We list the places students survived, rated, and would do again.
Every review,
six dimensions.
A single star hides everything that matters. So each review is broken down across six numbers — and a “good place” can't hide a bad lease.
Is it actually kept clean, or just photographed clean?
How far is the walk you’ll do twice a day for a year?
What you pay versus what you actually get.
Gym, study rooms, laundry — and whether they work.
Do they answer the phone when something breaks?
How it feels walking home at 1am.
Four things we won't compromise.
Independent
No commercial relationship with operators. We don’t list the places that pay us.
Verified
Only students with a university email can post. No agents, no astroturf.
Permanent
Reviews stay up — the good, the embarrassing, the angry. Operators get a reply, not a delete.
Private
Your email verifies you once. We don’t sell it, share it, or surface it.
