When should I book student accommodation at The Toybox?
All of the room options at The Toybox experience strong demand throughout the academic year, with some being fully booked even before exam results are announced. We recommend reserving your spot as soon as possible to guarantee availability.
Can I view The Toybox student accommodation before booking?
Of course, you can book both virtual and personal tours with our consultants to view The Toybox student accommodation. We also provide real photos, videos, lives, and 3d views.
Can we make a group reservation?
Of course. For locations with cluster apartments, it is easy to arrange bookings with friends. Just let us know who you would like to live with, and we will do our best to accommodate your request. Please note that this depends on room availability, and booking in advance will make it easier to arrange.
How can I find out who I will be living with?
For privacy reasons, we won’t disclose names, but you can find out who you will be living with, such as their gender, grade, and school information, by checking the resident group shared before your move-in or asking your apartment team.
When can I move in?
About two months before your move-in date, you will be invited to schedule your move-in time. You can choose the time that works best for you. If you have any special requirements regarding accessibility or transportation arrangements, please let us know at that time.
Do I need to pay any deposit?
Unlike other providers, we do not require a security deposit to secure your booking. However, we do require the rent to be paid in advance, which will be deducted from your first month's rent (you can think of it as a gift to yourself when September comes!).
What is the cancellation policy?
We have a 5-day "cooling-off period." This means that if you need to cancel your booking, you can do so within 5 days after signing the lease agreement, as long as you haven't moved in yet. If you need to cancel after the cooling-off period, we may allow cancellations in certain circumstances, such as if your UK visa is refused or you don't meet the requirements for your target university. Please make sure to provide the UCAS notice or visa refusal document within 72 hours of receiving the notification. You can also transfer your lease to another suitable tenant. If a suitable replacement is found, we will conduct a qualification review, and once approved, they will take over the lease agreement.
