Facilities: 1. The room has three chairs and a dining table suitable for dining with friends, and there is ample storage space. 2. The stove’s flame is relatively small, the range hood is not powerful enough, the window opens inward, making the kitchen smell heavy with cooking fumes, especially in the summer when it gets hot. 3. The shower drain often gets clogged. 4. The common areas are quite nice, the gym meets daily needs, and the self-study room has plenty of heating and air conditioning, suitable for study-loving kids. 5. The lights in the room are somewhat yellowish. Internet Speed: Very fast. Location: Close to Zhongchao and the bus station, as well as the largest gym in Aicun. Service: 1. The front desk does not work on weekends, so packages can only be picked up on weekdays. 2. When the front desk is closed, if you don’t have the key, you will have to wait for the staff to come and open the door, starting from 1 hour. 3. There is no cleaning service available. Soundproofing: You can hear people speaking loudly outside the door, and the cooking noises from the neighboring room at midnight can also be heard, but the window offers good sound insulation.

The location is great—very close to the city center, supermarkets, and Chinese supermarkets, with a bus stop right downstairs. The room environment is also nice. The front desk downstairs is staffed on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., making it very convenient to pick up packages.

I had a wonderful experience working with Timi. She was very attentive and always supportive in helping me find my student accommodation. Timi paid attention to even the smallest details and guided me through everything with patience and care. Thanks to her professionalism and kindness, the whole process was smooth and stress-free. I truly appreciate her help and would highly recommend her!

Refund Policy 1. Cancellation Before Start Date Students may cancel their booking before the Start Date and receive a refund of their Advance Rent Payment and any rent payments made to Colby River only under the following circumstances: * UK visa refusal: If the student’s UK visa application is refused and, as a result, they are unable to come to the UK to study. * Failure to achieve university place: If the student does not achieve the grades required for their university place and is therefore not accepted by the university. To request cancellation under these circumstances, students must contact the Colby River Residents’ Team as soon as reasonably possible, normally within **48 hours of receiving the relevant decision or evidence**, and provide reasonable supporting documents, such as a visa refusal letter, university rejection letter, UCAS evidence, exam results or other official evidence accepted by Colby River. 2. Non-refundable Situations The cancellation and refund policy does not apply if the student: * Decides not to continue their studies; * Withdraws from university; * Changes university; * Changes course; * Defers their studies; * Decides not to move into the accommodation; * Is excluded from or loses their university place after being accepted. In these circumstances, the booking will not be automatically cancelled and the student remains responsible for their contractual obligations. 3. Refund Process Where a refund is approved under the Booking Terms, Colby River will usually process the refund back to the original payment method. Refunds will generally be processed within **28 days after Colby River confirms that a refund is due and receives any required evidence or information**. Note: This summary is based on Colby River Booking Terms & Conditions for Academic Year 2026/27. In case of any inconsistency, the student’s final signed Student Tenancy Agreement / Student Licence Agreement will take priority.

You can change during the cooling-off period; however, outside the cooling-off period, you need to communicate and negotiate with the apartment.

Termination Policy 1. No Automatic Cancellation Period After Agreement Signing There is no automatic cancellation period after the Agreement has been signed by the student, any required Guarantor and Colby River on behalf of the landlord or licensor. Once the Agreement has been signed by all required parties, it becomes legally binding. The student and, where applicable, the Guarantor remain responsible for the payment obligations set out in the Agreement and Booking Terms. A student cannot automatically cancel their booking or end their payment obligations because they: * Change their mind; * Decide not to move in; * Withdraw from university; * Change university; * Change course; * Leave the accommodation early. Students can only be released from their Agreement where: * They are entitled to cancel under the Booking Terms; * The Agreement allows early termination; * A suitable **Replacement Resident** is accepted and completes a new agreement; * The room is successfully re-let; * Colby River agrees to release the student in writing. If the room is re-let, the student’s future rent liability will end from the date the replacement agreement starts. However, the student remains responsible for any unpaid amounts, rent shortfall or reasonable costs caused by their breach. 2. Medical Reasons for Early Termination If a student is unable to start or continue their studies for medical reasons for a period of **60 days or more**, Colby River may agree to end the Agreement early. The student must: * Provide at least 4 weeks’ written notice; * Provide reasonable supporting evidence, such as confirmation from their university or medical evidence accepted by Colby River. If approved, the Agreement will end on the agreed release date. The student and Guarantor (where applicable) will only remain liable for rent up to the agreed termination date. After the termination date, no further rent will be payable, except for: * Outstanding payments; * Damage charges; * Cleaning fees; * Replacement item costs; * Other reasonable charges due under the Agreement. 3. Non-medical Loss of Student Status If a student is no longer a student or cannot continue their studies for non-medical reasons, they may submit a written request for early release. This may include: * Withdrawal from university; * Deferral of studies; * Changing university; * Changing course; * Exclusion from university; * Refusal of admission after the Agreement has started. Students must provide at least 4 weeks’ written notice unless Colby River agrees otherwise. The student remains responsible for rent and other contractual obligations until the earliest of: * A suitable Replacement Resident enters into a new Agreement; * Colby River re-lets the room to another resident; * Colby River agrees in writing to release the student; * The original Agreement end date. Once the room is successfully replaced or re-let, the student’s future rent liability will end from the start date of the replacement agreement. Any outstanding amounts or reasonable costs incurred before that date remain payable. Note: This summary is based on Colby River Booking Terms & Conditions for Academic Year 2026/27. In case of any inconsistency, the student’s final signed Student Tenancy Agreement / Student Licence Agreement will take priority.
