I've been staying at Almero B16 Studios for the past 2 years, and it's been a really good experience. The studio rooms are great, with a personal kitchen and bathroom, giving you your own space and privacy. There's also a quiet study room that's perfect for focusing, and a chill room where you can relax with friends. Here they celebrate all festivals where they arrange snacks for everyone One of the best things is the free on-site gym – it's fully equipped and super convenient. The building also has a common kitchen on each, secure bike storage, a laundry room, and it's a very safe place overall. The reception team is really helpful – you can get your parcels delivered there, and there are student ambassadors available at night if you ever need support. Maintenance Ata is also quick and efficient whenever anything needs fixing. Property manager Laura very helpfull and friendly.Overall, it’s been a peaceful and amazing stay – all the staff are friendly and always ready to help. Definitely recommend it to any students looking for a comfortable and secure place to stay in Birmingham

Almero B16 Studios offers a fantastic, comfortable, convenient, and socially vibrant environment. Which is why I have lived here for 3 years. One of the standout features of Almero B16 Studios a wide variety of essential services. Grocery stores are nearby, making shopping easier. The area is also surrounded by a great selection of restaurants, offering a variety of cuisines. There’s a church close by, which is a comforting touch for students who want to keep up with their faith which was a bonus for me as a Catholic. As for the amenities, the gym is well-equipped, free Wi-Fi, study room, cinema room and a bike shack. The social aspect of living at Almero B16 Studios is also fantastic. The team regularly organizes fun and inclusive events, making it easy to meet new people and forge friendships. Events like Valentine’s Day parties, Chinese New Year celebrations, Pancake Day activities, and even free ice cream all contribute to a lively and welcoming community atmosphere❤️.

My time living at B16 Studios was a fun experience, one of my favourite parts about it is how local it was to everything and also how close the bus was to the accom. There were so many options to go get food and a really good Chinese spot called Lychee Garden. The accom itself was good very peaceful and perfect for my lifestyle as a busy student. Overall I’ll give it a 8/10 and totally recommend if you want a bit more independence. B16 Studios has been a great option for me - love the study room and most especially the gym is a life saver cause it saves me money and a membership. Overall a good experience thanks Almero Student for the free ice cream that one day!
