Don't Take Our Word For It

Amazing student accommodation with neat and modern living space. Best decision I’ve made staying here as it is close and convenient as a student in Obs. My experience for the past 2 years with Heron square has been so eventful and great from the student events to my experience with my housemates at the property. Thank you for always making sure I am safe and happy as a tenant.
The best student accommodation I have stayed in, I wish I found them sooner !! I definitely know where I will be staying next year 🙂 ! Heron square has the friendliest people that always put the needs of the students first. Thank you so much for always accommodating us. The cleaning service keeps our communal areas clean, maintenance is always just a call away and are quick to fix the issue. Security is good with cameras and access to Observatory Neighborhood watch.

Heron Square is a home away from home. My experience as a foreign student living in their accommodation has been wonderful. They are always one call away and very serviceable to their clients. In addition to the nice accommodation and exceptional services they offer, Heron Square also organizes a series of activities to bring residents together. I enjoyed the recent hiking trip and the welcome program held at the beginning of the year. If you wanna get this experience, I encourage you to choose Heronsquare. Meet nice people and receive excellent services!
