The Toybox - Student Accommodation Birmingham

I have loved living here for the last year and a half. The staff have been so helpful and welcoming right from the start and have always been chatty and friendly. The rooms themselves are spacious and comfortable too.

The ToyBox is a flat that I really liked, especially its Premium Studio with all the amenities. At first my impression was that the decor was very upmarket and clean, and all the furniture was relatively new. The reception was lit up every night and there was a security guard on duty throughout the night, which gave me a sense of home and security. The common areas are clean and tidy and often have different decorations, especially during the festive season, making it feel very festive. There are also free interactive English classes every week to help with socialising and submitting English skills.The receptionist was very gentle and helpful with all my questions and the cleaners, security and maintenance staff I met here were all very polite and professional and any problems were resolved quickly and patiently.

I have spent a pleasant 5 months at TOYBOX. The infrastructure is excellent. There is a recreation area, a study room and a self-service snack machine in the flat. The most important thing is that the reception staff are very welcoming. You can ask them for help with any problem. TOYBOX is also in a great location, only 5 minutes from five way train station. There is a Chinese supermarket downstairs and a tesco 5 minutes away. morrison and Marks and Spencer are only a 15 minute walk away.

I confirm this is a very unique apartment which makes me feel at home.in some time,reception will hold some activities and do the decorations for the special festivals.We have sufficient equipments such as gym,laundry room.And the stuff also will check the security for us to keep us safe.Very perfect apartment,worth to order！

Definately a great place for student living.Tesco, Morrison,pharmacy,a new opening Chinese supermarket,Second-hand shop are all within a few minutes walking distance.Also at most 10mins walk you can reach the city center and 3 mins train to the university. In addition，the facilities are well-equipped, extremely fast WiFi and convenience for parcel collection.Students live here are all very friendly and would always provide a helping hand if possible.The reception is very nice and help usasap,just like our sister.It’s really a wonderful experience to live here！

I've been living in toybox for 6 months now, I live in a single room but I've met a lot of good friends in tb. We usually cook together in the evening in the kitchen of our ensuite friends' house. It's easy to have lots of friends at toybox and everyone is very welcoming and friendly. It's close to school and the city centre, so you can study and have fun. The studio is very spacious. You can even live with two people. All in all, life at toybox is very happy. Highly recommended toybox!

I have been really happy with the welcome I have received at the Toybox, having chosen the property as a safe and comfortable home for an intense year of study. The team are consistently friendly and always up for a chat! I have been particularly impressed with the speed at which any maintenance issues are processed and dealt with - any minor problems I have had with my room have been dealt with swiftly within 2 hours of reporting. The facilities are fantastic, I really value the use of the gym and study area as a break from my room. I have also found the team very responsive to any suggestions I have for improvement. If you are looking to invest in accommodation conducive to facilitating a productive and hassle-free year, I would highly recommend!

After exploring several different student housing options, I'd say Toybox is the best. All the staffs are so kind, and especially Sandy and John, who are always willing to assist when required. The students who live here are all very friendly and would always provide a helping hand if needed. It's easy to get around, whether it's to school or the city centre. Tesco, Morrison's, and the pharmacy are all within easy walking distance. In addition, the window provides a pleasant and unobstructed view, which always brightens my mood when I begin a new day.

I have been living here a while and all I can say is this is one of the best place to stay in Birmingham if you're a student. Friendly and efficient staff, great facilities, and rooms that are warm enough in the winter! 10/10 would recommend.

It's super convenient to check in, the location is easy to find, and the apartment is very new. There is also a Chinese lady at the front desk to help guide you, and there are boxes for express delivery. The feeling of staying is really good.
