What’s more, with Central and District underground lines and the overground railway nearby, it does not take that long to take a ride to the West End! If you prefer the more hip and slightly rougher East London, Bethnal Green may be the right choice for you. Situated on the Central underground line and very close to Liverpool Street, it has a satisfaction score of 58% with a below average weekly rent of £116. Of course, if you really want to live where things happen and your budget is not strictly limited, you may consider living in Westminster. It scores really high in overall satisfaction (78%) but be prepared for high rental prices; up to £190 per week! LONDON When renting privately, no matter where you finally decide to rent your room or flat, always make sure you see it first. London’s “big” and “spacious” can sometimes mean a room the size of a shoe box and estate agents know many 108 tricks that make the photographed place look like it’s in great condition when in reality it is falling apart. Do not stick to one area either– the transport network is reliable and the Tube can quickly take you from one place to the other. Have a look at the Accommodation for Students’ website, get to know the city a little bit better and then start the property hunt.
